What is Integrative Medicine?

Integrative medicine is a specific approach that treats you as a whole person. Dr. Veerula is a board certified Internal and Integrative Medicine physician. Most importantly he evaluates the whole person, including your symptoms and lifestyle. Then he combines effective treatment protocols to help you reach optimal wellness. Knowing each patient is unique, he customizes your treatment protocol based on your health issues. This may involve both conventional and alternative health protocols.  Most importantly, Dr. Veerula’s goal is to obtain optimal health and prevent chronic disease in the future.

Integrative medicine is considered a unique combination of both conventional and alternative medicine strategies. Secondly, it is customized for each patient’s health needs. In many cases, patients find an integrative approach is often the most successful for difficult-to-treat conditions. For example, symptoms such as fatigue, chronic pain, neurological conditions, and mental health concerns. A few integrative medicine strategies Dr. Veerula recommends include:

  • I.V. nutrition therapy
  • Non-prescription dietary supplements
  • Lifestyle modifications
  • Low dose Naltrexone

Dr. Veerula customizes treatments to closely match your individual health needs and lifestyle.
