I am a practicing Internal Medicine physician with 10 years of experience treating patients in the hospital setting. I have spent the past 3 years building my practice towards keeping patients out of the hospital and living their most healthy, productive lives. I believe the majority of chronic illness in the United States is driven by what has been termed 'the Metabolic Syndrome.' The Metabolic Syndrome is characterized by insulin resistance, excess body fat, and increased risk for cardiovascular disease. I developed the GluTox Health program to help patients regain control over their health through nutritional counseling, routine exercise programs, and novel pharmacologic interventions that don't just treat the symptoms of the Metabolic Syndrome but effectively reverse and resolve the negative health consequences that result from it.
