Welcome to Healthy U!
Healthy U is an adult primary care medical clinic
staffed with M.D. physicians who are focused on
preventative care and natural, non-drug treatments. Our
mission is to help your learn and understand your unique
personal health risks, so that you can do something to
change them before a chronic disease or a disability
strikes.
Our clinic is different, since we don’t just reach for
our prescription pads first – here, our philosophy is to
help our patients manage their health conditions first
through medically-directed nutrition and physical
fitness programs, and appropriate nutritional
supplements to make sure your body has what it needs to
operate at its peak. We minimize the use of prescription
drugs to only when medically necessary for your health.
We’re not a “concierge practice” – to us, it just
doesn’t seem right to have our patients pay an extra
retainer or surcharge just to get the personalized,
one-on-one care they deserve. At Healthy U, we accept
most major insurance plans – and you’ll enjoy easy
online scheduling, little to no wait time, full
attention from our friendly staff, and doctors who take
the time to get to know you, your personal health
concerns, and your current health conditions. In
addition, all of our patients leave with the contact
information for their lead physician, so they have
unlimited access to their physician whenever they need
it. If for some reason you don’t have insurance, don’t
worry – our self-pay patients never pay more than what
insurance would have reimbursed.

I'm not old, and I feel fine. Why do I need to know my risks?
My mom suffered a severe stroke at a young age, due
to undiagnosed high blood pressure. For her,
that day started out just like any other day -- she
felt fine, and had no idea what was going to happen.
Knowing your health risks gives you a chance to make
lifestyle changes that can ultimately change your
future. Come in for a comprehensive evaluation
and report of your current health status, and a
physician’s treatment plan for what you can do in
order to stay as healthy as possible – using
prescription medications only when you absolutely
need them.
-- Dr. David

Cora,
I am a very busy person, so how much time would it
take to do a food journal? How detailed does it have
to be? -- JB, Ohio

Tip from your HealthCoach
Food Allergies? Think Raw! Raw foods are
unprocessed plant foods that retain the food’s natural
enzymes. Because raw foods are plant-based, those
with allergies to milk, dairy or seafood can enjoy raw
foods without risk of a reaction. Since raw
foodists are very particular about the purity of their
foods, you can even find nut butters and meal
supplements that are completely peanut- and dairy-free.
Raw food is also more easily digested and its nutrients
are more easily assimilated.
