Conditions We Treat
Comprehensive Healthcare When You Need It
High Blood Pressure
It’s possible to have hypertension for many years without experiencing any symptoms or negative results. However, when high blood pressure is unaddressed, it can be a source of serious concern for your lasting health. Hypertension is one of the leading causes of preventable death in the world and is a major risk factor for stroke, heart attack, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, kidney failure, dementia, and other conditions.
Weight Loss
The health risks of excess body weight (body fat) are well known, and, not surprisingly, weight loss is a common health goal. However, traditional weight loss programs are notoriously ineffective, with data showing that as much as 90% of people regain the weight lost in a year or two.
High Cholesterol
Keeping track of your cholesterol is essential to maintaining good cardiac health. The condition commonly called “high cholesterol” is more technically known as hyperlipidemia or dyslipidemia. It occurs when our blood has accumulated an excess of triglycerides, LDL cholesterol, or too little HDL cholesterol.
Metabolic Syndrome
Metabolic syndrome is a group of conditions that often go together, that dramatically increase the risk for heart disease, stroke, cancer, and dementia. Metabolic syndrome is increasing at epidemic levels and now affects almost 40% of adults in the United States. Over 93% of adults in the US have at least one sign of metabolic syndrome.
Atrial Fibrillation
Atrial fibrillation or Afib, is the most common heart rhythm problem seen by cardiologists and is increasing at epidemic levels. Afib occurs when the usual regular rhythm (called sinus rhythm) is replaced in the heart’s top chambers (the atria) with chaotic electrical signals. This is why atrial fibrillation causes an irregular and often fast heartbeat.
Fatty Liver
Fatty liver disease or non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common condition that affects as much as 40% of adults. This medical condition occurs because of fat deposition within the liver caused by too many calories and impaired metabolism indicated by high blood sugar and triglyceride levels. Fatty liver is also seen in those who drink excess alcohol.
Diabetes
Prediabetes is when your glucose levels are higher than normal but below the levels that indicate diabetes. Nearly 40% of adults in America are living with prediabetes. although 80% are unaware that they are currently pre-diabetic.
Heart Disease
Heart disease is the leading cause of death, and about 60% of people will have a heart attack, stroke, or heart failure in their lifetime. However, research shows that up to 90% of heart disease and stroke (what doctors call cardiovascular disease) is preventable.

Billions of dollars are being invested to discover the secrets of anti-aging therapies and strategies – and outstanding scientists worldwide are making exciting discoveries.
