Healing takes a village!

Our healthcare team includes a diverse group of healthcare providers with unique and varied education, training and experience. They collaborate on patient care so patients receive the benefit of over 100 years of combined experience.

Most patients see more than one provider on their healing quest.

Diet and lifestyle changes are ALWAYS an important part of every client’s recovery, so all new patients start with one of our Lifestyle Educators, Caitlin Pfeil or Francie Silverman. The Lifestyle Educator gathers information about overall health, including current medications and supplements, diet, activity level, sleep and current symptoms. 

In some cases, clients may feel they’re already eating healthfully, but a healthy diet can still contain foods that are not good for a particular constitution or genetic make-up. Our Lifestyle Educators have helped thousands of clients overcome obstacles to making healthful dietary choices. 

For those who want to see Patty Shipley, please note that you must first begin by having the initial intake consultation with Caitlin Pfeil.
