"My 3Ps approach to optimal wellness are preventative, personalized and primary care." Dr. Mordy Levy, ND, DC, HOM, IMG, BSc
Preventative Care
My model of care is implementing evidence based natural alternatives (Chiropractic, Acupuncture, Naturopathy, Homeopathy) when indicated. Furthermore, supporting lifestyle changes from dietary interventions to exercise, sleep and hygiene in order to enhance function (hence the term functional medicine) by understanding physiological processes and treating mechanism(s) of disease before they are pathological.
“An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." Benjamin Franklin
Personalized Care
My approach to care is that it should be wholistic yet, individualized & personalized, every case and every patient is unique, unlike the “Disease Centred model of conventional medicine” the Patient centred (Whole Health) approach takes into consideration issues that may impact one’s overall whole health and wellness and therefore may have a direct or even indirect effect on their ability to cope with certain illnesses or disease processes.
“You treat a disease, you win, you lose. You treat a person, I guarantee you, you’ll win, no matter what the outcome.” Dr. Patch Adams, MD
Primary Care
The human body is the most intriguing biological entity there is, composed of many organ systems, subsystems, tissues, cells, particles and sub particles. Furthermore, If you zoom into one area, you might miss the big picture, This reductionistic model of care, is a serious shortcoming, in todays health care, currently we have many specialists and shrinking population of general practitioners. If someone has an hormonal issue they are referred to an endocrinologist, if a patient has a stomach concern, they are referred to a gastroenterologist etc. In my opinion we need more holistic primary care generalists that assess the entire patient as a whole, connect the dots between various systems , and treat mechanism(s) of disease(s).
