Our Team

I entered this area of medicine after I became disenchanted with cookbook medicine that focuses on naming a disease, blaming the disease, and taming the disease with drugs and surgery. I found traditional medicine to be very good at treating severe illness, but woefully inadequate when it came to treating people with chronic illnesses.”
– Fred Harvey, MD
