Mission

My mission is to support my patients in their quest to achieve and maintain their optimal physical health, mental health and longevity. My goal is to help every one of my patients feel their best and function at their highest level possible. I am committed to listening to my patients and responding to their needs.

Clinical Method- Primary Care Clinical Psychopharmacology (PCCP):

And just what are those needs? For 17 years of private practice I have learned that the health issues my patients are suffering with most often fall into one of two categories; their weight, their mental health and, most often, both. Throughout my career, I have always embraced the latest advances in the fields of neuroscience, psychology and metabolism. I have continuously incorporated these advances into my own unique clinical internal medicine method I call Primary Care Clinical Psychopharmacology (PCCP), in which physical health and mental health are viewed as inseparable in the quest for optimal health and longevity. My training as an internist combined with my training as a Psychopharmacologist has given me a great advantage in terms of allowing me to develop this unique perspective and providing me with the necessary skills to treat the “whole patient”.
