“I was referred to Dr. Dersam by a family member and from the moment I sat down with her to explain my medical history Dr. Dersam made me feel that she truly cared about my situation and that she would do everything possible to figure out what was wrong with me. Dr. Dersam took the time to listen to me and for the first time in years, I finally had hope. Within 2 months and after a few specialized blood tests she figured out my main problem. To finally have an answer after many years of uncertainty was a life-changing event for me and my family.”

Areas of Focus
We Uncover, Prevent and Treat the Root Cause of Disease
Cognitive
Health
Cognitive decline can be preventable. We run a cognitive risk stratification to uncover any early causes of cognitive decline. You will receive an ongoing evaluation of factors affecting your cognitive health to see the results of your preventative blueprint of lifestyle recommendations.
Cardiovascular Risk Assessment
Take an in-depth look at your health and evaluate your risk of developing heart disease. We create an individualized health plan to reduce your risk of heart attack and stroke by optimizing your diet, lifestyle, movement, stress management, and physician-grade supplements.
Digestive and
Gut Health
If your gut is out of balance, your body is out of balance. We work with you to get to the root cause of your issues and design a plan to improve the quality of your life by using the Functional Medicine 5-R Program to heal your gut.
Chronic
Inflammation
Chronic inflammation can be the driving force behind many serious health issues. Our approach uses conventional and innovative lab testing to provide us with a road map for early intervention to reduce your risk of developing heart disease, diabetes, autoimmune disorders, and even cognitive decline.
Food Sensitivities
and Allergies
Food sensitivities are extremely common and are a big source of chronic inflammation. Through high-quality specialized testing, we help you identify the foods potentially causing your health issues and then create an anti-inflammatory diet to help you begin healing from the inside out.
Nutrient Balancing and Assessment
Nutritional balance plays a crucial role in optimal health, chronic disease prevention, and managing the aging process. We will assess your nutritional balance, identify deficiencies and make a plan to address any imbalances.
