Group Visits are now available at AFW!
If you would appreciate a community experience in exploring sex hormones, thyroid health issues, or need metabolic renewal, then please phone the clinic to make an appointment for one of these unique sessions. I strongly encourage new patients to choose one of these group sessions, at least for the first visit, as it is a wonderful introduction into the unique approach that I offer as a Metabolic Physician. Patients get an extended education and better understanding of their options in health care.
The group visit categories are Metabolic Renewal, Thyroid Health, and Sex Hormones.
The Thyroid Health group visit is a good choice for people wondering if their fatigue, weight gain, slowing mental function and low mood are due to a thyroid disorder. Sex Hormones is a discussion about estrogens, progesterone, dehydroepiandrosterone and testosterone. This group visit is a good choice for women who feel "menopausal," suffer declining or non-existent sex drive, or have hot flashes or sweats. Metabolic Renewal group visit is a good choice for anyone, no matter what their concerns, for a better understanding of addressing the underlying needs for optimizing health and minimizing disease.

If you feel achy and fatigued, your memory is failing, and your zest for living is declining, you may think these conditions are just a result of “getting old." It’s time to think again.
Chronological aging and biological aging are two different things. A myriad of choices you make every day about your life, diet, activity, and health care alter the way you experience the aging process. After all, biological aging is the result of metabolic deficiencies and imbalances. Whether you’re 33 or 83, you may be able to feel younger each day, instead of older, by improving your metabolism. Our mission at Advanced Family Wellness, PS is to help you better regulate your hormones and metabolism so that you can experience life with better quality.

Our approach to health care is different from that of many doctors and medical clinics. We believe that health is fostered not only through proper diet and exercise, but also by optimizing cell signaling, hormone balancing, and ongoing cellular renewal.

Optimizing quality of life and minimizing the risk of disease are fundamental in our patient care. We bring together the best of
to help our patients achieve the best possible metabolic health and quality of life.
In addition, we advocate a partnership in health care between doctors and patients. Our patients receive copies of all their data for their own personal medical records and for comparisons. We want health care to be effective and efficient, and we believe that such a partnership is essential for this.Out of respect for this partnership, we ask that all refill requests are at least 1-2 weeks prior to the needed refill.
