Resources
We provide a full list of resources to help you on your journey to optimal health and wellness.
Supplements
We provide our supplement prescriptions through Fullscript – when you see us as a patient, and we make supplement recommendations, you are provided with a link to create an account to have your supplements filled at a discounted rate.
We select only brands that are of the highest nutraceutical quality, are third-party tested, and assured to provide what they claim on the label. You are welcome to acquire your supplements through alternate sights (e.g Amazon, GNC, etc) however, quality and purity cannot be assured.
Many poor-quality brands may contain toxic additives, pharmaceuticals, and pesticide residues, or may simply not contain the ingredients listed on the label leaving you paying for something that may, at best, be worthless and, at worst, may be harmful.
You can also obtain these quality nutraceutical-grade supplements through Wellvate – an alternate dispensary.
Our focus is always on the individual patient, with an emphasis on personalized care and finding the right path for each person’s specific needs and desires. Our goal is to help individuals not just survive, but thrive by reversing the course of chronic illness and promoting overall wellness.
