1:1 Wellness consultation
During this 60-minute appointment with a physician or advanced practice provider, we will explore your personal and family health history, clarify your health goals and create a personalized lifestyle plan you can implement and sustain. We will use evidence-based treatment options, personal support and self-care practices to optimize your health
Group medical visits
This is a new approach to care that brings patients with common health care needs together in a group setting. With a provider leading each session, patients can share with each other what they need to live a healthy life.
Through hands-on learning we explore self-management skills for lifestyle and behavioral changes, as they relate to specific medical problems including:
Risk factors for heart disease such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, pre-diabetes and obesity
Anxiety, depression and stress
Arthritis
Pain
Insomnia and sleep issues
Digestion issues

This 6-week mindfulness-based GMV is aimed at helping to reduce stress and improve eating and physical activity habits. Hands on learning such as body scans, breath awareness, mindful eating, mindful walking, compassion meditation, and nature appreciation will be practiced. This program will also focus on making lifestyle changes that are better for our environment.
Participants will be expected to make all six sessions and will need a computer with camera and microphone to participate in the live virtual group sessions, and a smartphone to track physical activity.

During this 6-week session, we will focus on the health of our aging hearts. While we can't change our chronologic age, we can have a major impact on our biologic age. Age is by far the biggest risk factor for developing heart disease, but we can target the "Hallmarks of Aging" and protect our hearts and bodies to extend our health and lifespan.
