HolisticMD is a group of medical professionals who are trained and Board Certified in their respective fields of discipline; who are working in a professional office in the western/northern part of Long Island, NY; and who have completed training in multiple disciplines of integrative (complimentary, alternative medicine), intuitive and energetic medicine and other healing modalities.

Our approach is to seamlessly integrate various time-tested ancient ways of understanding and healing with western contemporary and newly emerging ideas of knowledge and treatment with the ultimate goal of healing our clients. We look at a person in a holistic way, that is, as somebody who happens to be suffering from a particular condition that may only be temporary, possibly lost behind multiple symptoms and diseases that are causing them to suffer. We look to explore the reasons for the condition that causes suffering, disease; we explore it on 5 levels of healing. Behind every symptom there is a HUMAN BEING who needs to be seen and with whom we need to connect. We do our best to deeply care about this BEING and not just about symptoms, complaints and lab results, although their importance is not ignored or denied. Our primary concern is for the person who comes to us, not just the complaint or disease.

We believe that within each of us exists an absolute and infinite source of healing, which can be accessed and harnessed. We facilitate the person’s healing journey through the body-mind-spirit connection and the laws of nature.

We have particular expertise with psychiatric treatment-resistant clients who have failed to improve despite multiple medications, who have suffered numerous side effects and who are terrified of withdrawal from psychotropic medications. We offer them safe ways to get off medications and regain their happiness and well being.

The majority of our patients are those who have tried many traditional western treatment techniques or alternative approaches but were either disappointed, failed to respond, or had too many side effects and/or iatrogenic (treatment-caused) injuries; or in some cases have just been deeply misunderstood because of their uniqueness and sensitivity. Many say at the end of their visit: "Doctor, you are our last stop". We do our best not to disappoint them.

Most of our patients come from Long Island and the five boroughs of New York City, but some travel from other states. To accommodate people from a distance we do offer telephone appointments after the initial in-person consultation.

Our goal is to help people regain their inner vitality, happiness, balance in life and high productivity. We do it by using our knowledge, intuitive abilities, sensitivity, support, positive attitudes and intentions. We use various treatment and diagnostic methods to accomplish our goal.

We are constantly in the process of development, training, education, self –balance and improvement.

To assess our effectiveness, we are developing self assessment research tools to scientifically evaluate and compare our outcome results with those achieved by other treatment centers. We are doing this to demonstrate effectiveness of true evidence-based medicine that is unbiased and free of commercial influence. Our goal is to help the clients we serve, not the companies who profit from their suffering. We are always seeking the most economical, efficient and least toxic approaches to helping people regain their health and achieve the most of their capabilities.

We do not accept any insurance; some of the methods we use are not covered by them anyway. Rather than be involved in frustrating arguments with insurance companies, we prefer to focus our resources on our clients. However, we certainly understand financial struggle and how people are challenged in today’s economy and we have several layers of fees to fit your needs. We will provide you with all necessary documentation to submit your claims to your insurance company and be appropriately reimbursed according to your policy agreement.
