We want you to achieve your optimal health. Prevention is key! We are your advocate to reach your best health, through services such as counseling, coaching, nutritional advice, goal setting, immunizations, contraception, and physicals. We provide wellness visits such as physicals that don't just touch the surface, but get to the bigger picture. We address problems like smoking, drinking a little too much, along with stress reduction, exercise, and specific diet plans. We also provide genetic counseling and screening to address family risk factors using the latest guidelines in care. In addition, we provide nutritional analysis with bloodwork.

Many of these infections can cause serious or life-threatening illnesses and may lead to life-long health problems.
We also provide counseling on immunizations and prevention of diseases (like malaria) during international travel.
