Private Medical Care

Care is guided by osteopathic principles that view the body as an integrated whole.  Attention is given to structure, movement, nervous system regulation, and the body's inherent capity for balance, regulation, and comfort - not just isolated symptoms or diagnoses.

Rather than focusing solely on disease labels, visits emphasize understanding why symptoms are present.  This includes careful listening, comprehensive physical and osteopathic examination, and consideration of lifestyle, stress, biomechanics, and physiology.

Appointments are intentionally unhurried, allowing time for thoughtful evaluation, discussion, and hands-on osteopathic treatment when appropriate.  Care is built around a continuous phyiscian-patient relationship rather than episode problem-foucsed visits.  

Modern healthcare often involves multiple specialists, tests, and recommendations—frequently without a clear sense of how they fit together. 

This can leave patients and families overwhelmed, unsure of what matters most, and responsible for managing complex decisions on their own.

In this practice, care coordination is an active, physician-led process.

I help patients and families:

Interpret and prioritize recommendations from multiple specialists.

Understand how new diagnoses, medications, or procedures interact with the whole person.

Decide what is truly necessary versus what may add burden without benefit.

Align medical decisions with the patient’s values, goals, and stage of life.

Communication is proactive and intentional. When appropriate, I communicate directly with specialists, caregivers, and family members to ensure everyone is working from the same understanding—reducing duplication, confusion, and unnecessary interventions.

The goal is not more care, but the right care, thoughtfully coordinated.

In some stages of life, the goal is not cure, but comfort, dignity, can peace.  This practice honors the body and the person as they are - supporting Symptom relief, functional comfort, emotional well-being, and thoughtful decision-making when healing in the traditional sense is no longer the aim.

Care is guided by respect for the individual's values, wishes, and lived experience, with attention to reducing suffering rather than prolonging burden.

This model is offered on a limited basis.  Details about the structure of care and financial arrangements are discussed privately to ensure a mutual fit.
