Today is a great day to start making the changes you already know you need to make.

Many chronic diseases don't start with obvious symptoms.

High blood pressure.
Pre-diabetes.
High cholesterol.
Fatty liver disease.
Early kidney disease.

You can feel perfectly fine while something is quietly changing beneath the surface. That's why prevention matters.

Know your numbers.
Know your risks.
Get your screenings.
Make changes early.

The best time to protect your health is before symptoms appear.

Your future self will thank you.

Iron helps your body produce hemoglobin to transport oxygen. Deficiency is common— especially in young women, individuals with heavy periods, or due to diet and underlying health conditions.

Signs of Low Iron:
• Fatigue, weakness, & feeling cold
• Pale skin & headaches
• Brain fog & shortness of breath

Iron-Rich Foods to Eat:
• Beef, liver, fish, & egg yolks
• Leafy greens, beans, peas, nuts, & dried fruits

Don't ignore constant fatigue. At our clinic, we provide personalized, whole-picture care to get to the root of your symptoms.

Contact us today for a simple blood test to check your iron levels.

Your primary care team should know more than your blood pressure. We are not here just to check boxes.

We want to understand:
How are you eating?
How are you sleeping?
How are you moving?
How is your stress?
What are you worried about?
What is getting in the way of taking care of yourself?

Because your health doesn't exist in a laboratory report.

There's a whole person behind those numbers, and that's the person we want to care for.

You don't need a complicated diet plan.

Start by asking:
"Does this food look like something that came from the ground, a tree, or an animal?"

Note: Gummy bears do NOT count. 😉

Build more meals around:
🥩 Protein
🥦 Vegetables
🍓 Fruit
🥑 Healthy fats
🥔 Whole-food carbohydrates

And enjoy the foods you love, too!

Nutrition isn't about being perfect. It's about making real food the foundation of your diet most of the time.

Your biggest health intervention may not happen in a medical building.

Most likely, it will happen:
🥗 At your kitchen table
🚶 On your morning walk
💧 When you choose water instead of soda
😴 When you prioritize sleep
🏋️ When you strengthen your muscles
❤️ When you make time for yourself

We can give you information, guidance, testing and treatment, but you live your health every day.

We’re honored to help you find your starting point and walk alongside you through the everyday choices.

Thank you all for your patience while we have been out of the office. We will re-open as normal tomorrow. We are rested and ready to give our patients the best care possible.

Self care is huge. Our bodies need rest. This has been a hard 18 months for our home and business and I have been reminded the importance of personal health. We are all human and our bodies were made to rest. It’s the way the good Lord designed it from the beginning.

Breathe the fresh air. Walk in the grass or the sand. Watch the sunrise and sunset. Put the phones down. Make memories with your family. Let the kids eat ice cream in the pool! Laugh. So. Much.

Thank you to my amazing patients for letting me get to learn and practice medicine every day!

You don't need a perfect workout.

Walk around the block.
Work in the garden.
Play with your kids.
Park away from the door.
Take the stairs.
Go fishing.
Dance in the kitchen.
Walk with a friend.
Movement is medicine.
Start where you are.
Do what you can.
Build from there.

Your body was made to move.

Micah, missionary to Thailand and a familiar face in our One Heart staff meetings via video call, is serving alongside us in person this week. We are so thankful to have him joined with our office team for a few days!

Get your refill requests in on Monday and Tuesday!

🍂Please note our September schedule and plan accordingly, especially if you want a Friday appointment since they fill up fast.

🍁We hope as we enter this fall season that the beautiful leaves are a vivid reminder to our patients that change can be a beautiful thing.
