Why integrative Medicine?
I have found that through my years of practicing medicine that allopathic or Western medicine leaves both the patient and the physician searching for more. Meeting patients for their annual visits gives me a glimpse into their lives, journeys, joys and struggles. It is with great awe that I am inspired by their stories of courage and compassion to create a beautiful life for their family and themselves in the midst of a turbulent world. The time allotted to such appointments does not allow for an in depth evaluation of the state of wellness of the patient and the ability journey into complete health. Wellness is much more than what western medicine believes it to be. It is a mental, spiritual and physical state of health that may be achieved by correcting imbalances of nutrient deficiencies and toxin exposures, as well as beginning a new exercise program, regardless of its intensity. Movement is magic and it contributes to your physical and emotional well being. Integrative Medicine is a whole systems approach of treating the patient through mind, body, and spirit. When all three are healthy, wellness is achieved.

For this reason, I decided to become trained in Integrative Medicine and Nutrition. I received my diploma in February 2016 from The University of Arizona and was fortunate enough to study with Dr. Andrew Weil, Dr. Tieraona Low Dog, and Dr. Veronica Maizes. Their instruction has provided me with a foundation to provide the best care to my patients in a compassionate, caring environment.

Functional Medicine is a system of evaluating a patient using a systems-oriented approach. This is a shift from disease centered, to patient centered approach to patient care that involves approaching disease at the cellular level and correcting nutritional deficiencies to promote the optimal vitality and health of the individual. Functional Medicine takes into account the unique genetic make up of the individual and the way this allows them to interact differently with their environment and even with different medications. Through Nutrition testing, Hormone testing, and Stool testing, with specific genomic add ons, the physician is able to determine the best course of action to provide the very best health of the patient.

I offer Nutritional, Hormonal, and GI Effects testing through Genova.
Supplements, Nutritional Foods and Detox Regimens are available through Metagenics, Orthomolecular Products, Gaia Herbs.

In wellness and many blessings,
Dr. Jodi
