💜 Make the First Move Against Cancer — Special Galleri® Pricing Available!

September is Healthy Aging Month, and we’re excited to share a special opportunity with our patients and community.

For a limited time, the Galleri® multi-cancer early detection test is available for $599 for eligible blood draws collected August 31 through October 2, 2026.

🩸 What is the Galleri test?
Galleri is a simple blood test designed to look for a cancer signal shared by many types of cancer, including some cancers that currently do not have routine screening tests.

🔎 What can it tell you?
If a cancer signal is detected, Galleri can also help predict where in the body that signal may be coming from, helping your healthcare provider determine appropriate next steps.

👥 Who should consider Galleri?
Galleri is intended for adults with an elevated risk for cancer, such as those age 50 and older, family history or genetic mutations. Whether it is appropriate for you should be discussed with your healthcare provider.

💜 Why consider additional screening?
Many cancers are not routinely screened for today. Galleri provides another tool that may help identify a cancer signal earlier.

⭐ SPECIAL PRICE: $599

Available for qualifying blood draws through October 2, 2026.

Interested in learning whether Galleri may be right for you? Contact our office for more information or to schedule your test.

Galleri is a screening test and does not diagnose cancer. It does not detect every cancer, and false-positive and false-negative results can occur. Diagnostic testing is required to confirm cancer. Galleri should be used in addition to, not in place of, recommended cancer screenings.

❤️ Your time matters — and so does your health. ❤️

Have you ever waited weeks for an appointment… only to spend more time in the waiting room than you actually spend with your doctor?

I believe primary care can be different.

One of the things I value most about my MDVIP-affiliated practice is having the time and availability to truly be there for my patients.

With a smaller patient panel, my practice is designed to offer:

🩺 Same-day or next-day appointments when needed
⏰ Appointments that run on time with minimal waiting
📞 Greater access when an urgent concern comes up
❤️ More time together during your visit — without feeling rushed

When you come into my office, I want us to have enough time to talk about what’s going on, answer your questions and create a plan together.

Because good healthcare isn't just about being available when you're sick. It's about building a relationship with a physician who knows you, your history and your health goals.

If you've been looking for a more personal approach to primary care, I'd love to introduce you to my practice.

For years, I’ve encouraged my patients to adopt the Mediterranean style of eating, which includes olive oil. However, olive oil consumption practically doubled between 1990 and 2021. In response, brands began offering olive oil at different price points and styles to keep up with demand. The overwhelming number of varieties has made it difficult to select the most appropriate olive oil for you. Here are some tips to make buying olive oil easier.

You may have noticed how big the olive oil section of your supermarket has become.

💛 Wellness Wednesday

🍂 Beating the Fall & Winter Blues

As September arrives, our days begin getting shorter and we start seeing less sunlight. For some people, that seasonal change can affect mood, energy, sleep, and overall well-being.

Many people experience the fall or winter blues, and some develop a form of depression known as Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD).

If you notice your mood changing as the seasons change, here are 5 things that may help:

☀️ 1. Get some daylight
Try to spend time outside during daylight hours, especially earlier in the day. Even a short daily walk can help.

🚶 2. Keep moving
Regular physical activity can support your mood, energy level, sleep, and overall health.

😴 3. Maintain a consistent sleep schedule
Going to bed and waking up around the same time each day can help keep your body's internal clock on track.

🥗 4. Take care of your whole body
Eat balanced meals, stay hydrated, remain socially connected, and make time for activities you enjoy.

💬 5. Talk about how you're feeling
If sadness, low energy, loss of interest, sleep changes, or other symptoms are affecting your daily life, don't wait to reach out. There are effective ways to treat seasonal depression.

🍁 A change in seasons doesn't mean you have to simply “push through” a change in your mental health.

Pay attention to how you're feeling, take care of yourself, and talk with your healthcare provider when you need some extra support. 💛

Do you notice a change in your mood or energy when the days start getting shorter?

I want my patients to exercise, eat gut-friendly foods and get enough rest—yet they still struggle with gut health issues. Why? I think in some cases, it’s the medications they take. Do you take medications that upset your gut health?

Gut health is a relatively new line of research. As more and more studies are published, experts realize that gut microbiota function like an organ. And like other organs, it’s affected by what you ingest. While you’re probably aware your diet can affect biomes, you may not have thought about me...

Losing weight is not easy. And sadly, there’s a good chance you won’t achieve your weight loss goals. In fact, it’s very common. Most of my patients who begin a diet don’t achieve their desired results and/or gain back the weight they lost. But their efforts aren’t in vain. Here are some benefits of following a weight management program, even if you didn’t achieve your weight loss goals.

Loose clothing. Living a healthier lifestyle helps you gain muscle, making it easier to zip up your jeans and button your jacket.Better focus. A healthier lifestyle is known for sharpening attention and concentration.
