“I wondered, how I can help build a community where patients can learn about living their best lives with the backing of evidence-based medicine?  I realized I could make a bigger impact on my patients with a preventive care focus. We have created a practice that encourages patients to come in for any questions that impact their lives and know that they will get help.”
