Our founders, Dr. Cory Rice and Dr. Carol Villanueva, were trained in traditional Internal Medicine. Alongside their team of providers and health coaches, they treat a wide variety of health concerns and chronic diseases by using a functional/lifestyle medicine approach to patient care. Their mission is to restore your health by finding and treating the root cause of your medical problems as opposed to placating your symptoms with prescription pills. Contrary to traditional medicine, their treatment is focused on you as a whole person, not just one isolated part related to one particular disease or symptom. They use both comprehensive diagnostic testing and detailed patient evaluations to provide personalized treatment plans for your specific needs. Working with our certified health coaches is an integral part of the treatment provided by our doctors. Our certified health coaches are experts in nutrition and wellness counseling and provide the education and professional support necessary to implement the doctors’ treatment plans. For your benefit as a potential patient, we require you to complete a new patient orientation, free of charge via email or in person, before scheduling your first appointment. This will give you the opportunity to find out more about our practice, our providers and our treatment philosophy before making the decision to establish care here.
