GoodMedizen is an attempt to shake up and change the current health system – we are creating a system of more personal medicine  - medicine where we take into consideration ALL of the patient – their history, their environment, their lifestyle, and their genetics.

​

We are working on changing the field of Healthcare to be “individualized holistic wellness care” with focus on maintenance and prevention as opposed to crisis intervention (though of course, we’re good at that too!).

​

We are focused on functional changes with our patients. Most natural practitioners and modalities are able to reduce inflammation, and thus give their patients relief, but often that’s where it ends – patients become dependent on these habitual pitstops to keep their symptoms at bay. While we understand that with some chronic conditions, this might be all that we are able to do, it should never be the goal.

​

We want to make functional changes in our patients’ bodies so that they are able to achieve true healing that is sustainable without frequent ongoing treatments.

​

We want to establish trust and rapport so that our patients feel comfortable coming to us first for assessments of new symptoms – with our knowledge and skills, we can effectively treat conditions yet also know when to refer out and who to refer to.

​

We are also dedicated to patient education to help empower them to better understand their bodies and their health. Help teach them tools to use for their own health and wellness so that they can be an active roll in their healthcare and feel more confident in their decisions. Through their work with GoodMedizen, they will have the ability to know when they can use their own tools at home (such as rehab exercises, heat, liniments, etc.) or when they need to come in for evaluation.

 

We are continually re-evaluating patient progress and adjusting for progress and/or shifts in patient goals. We want the least amount of intervention with the highest level of progress and are readily equipped to further assess the patients’ symptoms and apply the correct modality and/or to refer out for tests and/or other modalities. “If we can’t do it, we will refer you to someone who can.” Our referral network of trusted practitioners is to be considered one of our tools which helps further build patient rapport and positive outcomes.
