About PremierMD

We are practice unlike any other

We look at every patient from every angle, we take the time to hear what our patients tell us, and we examine every complaint from both, Western and Eastern, perspectives!

Most patients come to the doctor because they feel unwell. Whereas most physicians primarily focus on making sure the patients' symptoms aren't a sign of a major life-threatening illness, the patients come to see the doctor wanting to feel better. This clash of agendas is one of the primary culprits of patient-physician dissatisfaction! The fact that most visits last less than 10 minutes definitely doesn't help!

Most of the time, the interests align and the patient is diagnosed, treated, and leaves happy with the outcome of the encounter.

Often, however, the patients present with unusual symptoms that fail to reveal their source despite extensive work-ups and visits to numerous specialists. These symptoms, like fatigue, or insomnia, or muscle pain, or digestive irregularities are often clustered into a category of "functional complaints," as opposed to organic illnesses where the diagnosis and treatment course are both apparent.

Functional complaints may not be life-threatening, but they can drastically impair the patients' ability to function. Often these symptoms will not respond to conventional medical treatments. It is not uncommon for us to see a patient who has seen a litany of specialists, who've failed to "fix" these complaints.

Our medical team examines every complaint and considers whether Eastern or Western medicine is most likely to bring about a therapeutic response.

Our decades of clinical expertise are a tremendous resource for our patients!

It is important for us to take care of our bodies, and there is an extensive emphasis placed in the practice on preventative care.
We want our patients to stay healthy and active for as long as humanly possible. We, at PremierMD, emphasize preventative care practices such as disease prevention, risk factor control, embracing cancer and genetic screening, and encourage our patients to embrace a healthy approach to nutrition and regular exercise.
We are mindful of addressing the various vitamin and mineral deficiencies that can result from following a typical Western diet.
