Greetings!
Information is power. That's why we take the time to educate you about your health. This means longer visits for you and your physician to discuss your condition and your treatment options. We wanted to do even more, however, so last spring we launched a lecture series on a variety of important health topics.  Listed to the left under "Past Events" are the lectures we've offered since June 2013. We are videotaping each presentation, so if you missed any, you can watch them at your convenience by clicking the links included in the side panel.
Education -- it's a critical part of integrative health care. We hope that you find our series helpful, and we invite you to share these resources with your friends and loved ones.
As always, you have our best wishes for your optimal health,
