Our Philosophy

We partner in health with those in our care. We are trained in the art of listening and watching, schooled in a tradition of touch and empathy. We are diligent seekers of a person’s complete story.

We respect science and technology but also consider options to complement pharmaceuticals or surgery. For we see an interrelated unity in all the systems of the body and understand that each is committed to helping the other become healthy and to heal in the face of illness.

We believe there’s more to good health than the absence of pain or disease. Of equal importance is presence of mind, prevention, and a recognition of all that is healthful or harmful in an individual’s life.

We are Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine.

We don’t see patients. We see people.
