Dr. Vo’s Practice
Philosophy Statement
As
a naturopathic physician, my goals are to promote
wellness in every patient that I treat through
education, which I believe, is the
most important key element in the healing process.
I believe that patient is an active member of the
health team and the doctor is the health
coach providing resources and options of
care. I believe in the innate healing power of the
body and patients can make positive changes to turn
on this healing ability. My job is to provide my
clients with tools to maintain their health so they
can continue to be productive and functional members
of their families and communities. I
whole-heartedly believe in Foods as
Medicine approach - in the healing
powers of whole foods since healthful changes of
diet and lifestyle can have major positive impact in
heath. I believe in integrating the most
advanced medical technologies with the
ancient wisdom of naturopathic medical
healing arts in order to provide
exceptional care to my patients. Part of my job as
a physician is to provide comprehensive
assessment and accurate
diagnosis of patient's problems - with
complete history taking, physical exam, and
testing. I also believe in working together with
other health practitioners to provide a strong
network of support for the
patients. And lastly, I believe in all the
principals of naturopathic medicine – where the
emphasis of health is on Prevention
and not the treatment of Diseases and the focus
of treatment is on the Whole Body
and not on symptoms of an illness.
At
Restore Balance Natural Health Center, everyone is
treated equally with compassion and respect.
Wellness and preventive medicine are highly promoted
and all patients are encouraged to take part in
restoring balance in their life and to embark on an
educational and healing journey to reclaim what’s
rightfully theirs – healthy, productive, purposeful,
and long-lasting life. |
