integrative medicine
Integrative Medicine is a whole person-first, evidence-based system of medical practice with a safety-first approach to care. Integrative Medicine combines conventional Western medicine tools with effective therapies from other systems. The focus is always on treating the person, and not just the symptoms or health conditions the person has. Dr. Matt is fellowship-trained and board-certified in Integrative Medicine (ABOIM).

Integrative Medicine is a modern medical movement and modality that applies evidence-based criteria to clinical and care tools from many systems of practice to find therapeutic approaches that work for each individual. The systems that weave into Integrative Medicine include conventional allopathic medicine, osteopathic medicine, naturopathic medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, and many more. Dr. Andrew Weil is one of the primary pioneers of Integrative Medicine, and Dr. Matt completed the 2-year Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine fellowship in 2019.

Integrative Medicine brings tools from non-conventional systems into mainstream practice, and introduces patients and care providers alike to systems and care modalities they may never have considered or encountered before.

I was first able to sustainably bring wholesome, personalized care tools to my patients in conventional, office-based practice because of skills and tricks I picked up during my fellowship training. If it wasn't for the fellowship and the inspiration I received from that, The Buddha's Medicine would never have come into being!

"I came to Matt when I was really feeling out of balance and anxious. Matt not only heard me, but he taught me how to heal myself. I was able to get personalized recommendations that really changed my relationship with my body and my health."
