Practice Philosophy

After 13 years providing health care in a traditional community health center, we are very excited to be starting a new, innovative model for primary care. At CFM, our first priority is YOU! We value the patient- physician relationship, and your health and wellness. For years we have felt pressure to meet the demands of a busy practice, and have been as frustrated as you are in attempting to access care when you want it, with YOUR doctor.

Our model is based on providing health services unrestricted by the traditional limitations of insurance, formularies and fee schedules. In order to provide access and availability, we have limited our staff, obtained an electronic medical record, and opted not to accept ANY insurance payments for our services. We offer health care consultations in a concierge (physician retainer fee) model. I will try to manage health concerns with non-drug therapies wherever possible.

If you want an entire hour of my individual attention, opinion and advice, I would be thrilled to have the opportunity! If you only need a few minutes, we can do that, too!  Please feel free to contact our office at any time by calling (678) 474-4742.

Please browse the entire site for answers to many of your questions and feel free to contact us at anytime!

Using integrative and alternative medicine and the evidence based guidelines of functional medicine, we started to get to the root cause of many of our patients' symptoms.  Food sensitivities, hormone imbalances, metal toxicity, and genetically determined defects in metabolism can be detected, treated and restored to a more physiologic balance.  We use nutrition therapy, supplements, Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Therapy, vitamins (especially Vitamin D!), and more to help patients lose weight, normalize lipid and blood sugar levels, come off of maintenance medications and improve cognitive performance and energy levels.

We do all of this for a flat-rate fee in a membership only practice.  This allows us to limit our services so we can provide the best care we know to the patients we love.
