Medical technology is advancing at an incredible rate. What was nearly impossible 15 years ago from surgical and high-tech diagnostic intervention such as MRI and CT Scan imaging, is common place today in our ability to diagnosis disease and save human lives. This same technology applies to diagnostic medicine in the arena of blood, saliva, and urine analysis for underlying organ dysfunction. Recently, a new field of medicine has been established called Functional Diagnostic Medicine.

This exciting field of healthcare uses advanced diagnostic tests to uncover immune, digestive, hormone, and other problems within our bodies that lead to chronic illness. For example, we now have the ability to map a women's menstrual cycle by using multiple salivary collections that measure estrogen and progesterone and their ratio of distribution and total output. This allows us to pinpoint the specific problems that can occur in a woman's cycle such as menstrual headaches, infertility, PMS, and irregular menses. BioHealth Diagnostics is a leader in female hormone testing, and their comprehensive programs for resolving female hormone issues have been a very important part of my naturopathic practice.

The core concept of naturopathic medicine is to support the body in its healing capacity by providing good nutrition, proper supplementation, good sleeping patterns, and stress reduction. All of these basic lifestyle factors are critical in helping you stay healthy and to recover from acute and chronic illness. By using BioHealth Diagnostics, I am now able to uncover root causes of illness such as hidden food intolerances, parasitic infections, adrenal hormone and female hormone imbalances, and immune system disorders. There are other labs that provide diagnostic tests, but none of them as comprehensive as BioHealth Diagnostics.

Finally, another reason I choose BioHealth Diagnostics for my patients is because of their technical support staff and clinical training programs. This advantage is passed on to my patients because I am able to consult with other doctors about my patients health issues and receive recommendations for specific treatment. Also, the clinical training seminars keep me on top of the latest developments in Functional Medicine which helps to increase my knowledge and improve patient care.

If you have specific health issues that have not been addressed by conventional medicine, or if you have friends or family members who need more advanced diagnostic and natural medicine recommendations, contact BioHealth Diagnostics or my office for help in assisting you to a new road to wellness.
