Electronic Health Records

Electronic Health Records are definitely here to stay. They can be super useful and a distraction. We use the EHR AtlasMD which was created by a group over in Kansas. It allows us to communicate with our Direct Primary Care patients through text and email. We will be continuing to expand as the record develops. If you have not shar at your next visit so with us, let us know at your next visit so we can update your record. 

Meditation

Have you ever tried to meditate. Most people think about sitting on a beach or in a Yoga studio with your legs crossed. The truth is, you just need to start with a word. Choose a word that makes you happy and close your eyes and repeat. You can be in your car - parked please. You can be in the bathroom or sitting on your porch. It is okay to fall asleep. Just start. There are so many health benefits from this simple process. Try it today. 

Technology Driven World

We definitely live in a technology driven world. I like to get back to the basics with patients. I like to listen to what my patients are feeling and experiencing. I feel the sometimes in medicine, we can begin to see patients as a text book or an illness. The truth is, we are all amazing individuals with truly unique experiences. I want to help guide patients to listen to the body. It usually tells us what it needs. Don't try to be a textbook either. Sometimes our bodies are just telling us that they are working to heal. Sometimes we just need to give it fuel or rest. Learining to listen to the body can be very helpful is all respects.
