“I believe in caring for the whole patient, not necessarily just the symptom or concern that brought someone to our center. Helping a patient establish and maintain a healthy lifestyle — including eating a healthy diet, getting daily exercise, getting adequate sleep and avoiding tobacco — is usually much more beneficial than any medication I can prescribe.”
