Our Philosophy
Wellness is a state of balance
One of the first concepts we learn in medicine is homeostasis, which is Latin for “balance” and describes the natural state of healthy bodies. As a family medical practice, it is our philosophy that true wellness comes when this balance is achieved not only in our bodies, but in all aspects of life–nutrition and activity, work and home, mental health, and so on.
Although we may be discussing your needs in a healthcare setting, this is not an office where you’ll find doctors who rush in to make a quick diagnosis before rushing out again. We take our time to get to know you, to listen to your concerns, and answer all your questions. Becoming a patient of Vitalis Wellness means having a medical care team that works with you to achieve comprehensive health and wellness for you and your loved ones.
