Happy New Year! We hope you and your families enjoyed a wonderful holiday season and are rejuvenated and recharged for 2017.

January is a time to reflect and set new goals for a New Year. If you’re like most Americans, weight-loss and better health are typically at the top of the list of New Year’s resolutions. Check out tips from registered dietician Amy Paterno on the right way to diet, and hear from Anna Fox, CNP, NCMP, on the value of an integrative medicine practice.

Our practice continues to grow as more and more of your friends and family have joined us, and as we continue to educate the larger community about the benefits of our providers and our direct primary care and concierge care practice model. Thank you for continuing to support our efforts to provide affordable, accessible, personalized medicine in Cincinnati! We hope you'll take the time to complete a brief survey about your experience with our practice.

Finally, our construction continues on our new building in Mariemont! We’re on track for our opening in April/May, and we’re looking forward to seeing you there.

Thank you for trusting us with your healthcare!
