Integrative Medicine

What is Integrative Medicine?

Integrative Medicine is a healing oriented medicine that takes account of the whole person, including all aspects of lifestyle. It emphasizes the therapeutic relationship between practitioner and patient, is informed by evidence, and makes use of all appropriate therapies.

The principles of Integrative Medicine

Patient and practitioner are partners in the healing process.
All factors that influence health, wellness, and disease are taken into consideration, including mind, spirit, and community, as well as the body.
Appropriate use of both conventional and alternative methods facilitates the body’s innate healing response.
Effective interventions that are natural and less invasive should be used whenever possible.
Integrative medicine neither rejects conventional medicine nor accepts alternative therapies without critical review.
Good medicine is based in good science. It is inquiry-driven and open to new paradigms.
Alongside the concept of treatment, the broader concepts of health promotion and the prevention of illness are paramount.
Practitioners of integrative medicine should exemplify its principles and commit themselves to self-exploration and self-development.

What Integrative Medicine is not

Integrative Medicine is not anti-vaccine or anti-science.

Integrative medicine is not a reliance on numerous, expensive labs, or unproven treatments.

Integrative Medicine is not unaffordable for patients or meant only for affluent communities.

Integrative Medicine, Integrative Pediatrics

Dr. Mohiuddin is completed the fellowship training in Integrative Medicine at the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine at University of Arizona and has trained with many of the leading integrative physicians in the country. Dr. Mohiuddin is incorporating aspects of integrative medicine into his current practice and will continue to do so as he completes his postdoctoral training.

Dr. Hashmi is an Osteopathic trained physician who follows the philosophy of practicing medicine by promoting the body’s natural tendency toward self-healing and health.

“Drs. Mohiuddin and Hashmi strongly believe that health is – A state of physical, mental and social wellbeing, and not merely the absence of disease

As our current healthcare environment has lost focus of the individual patient, we strongly believe the doctor-patient relationship should be foremost in maintaining the health of our patients.”
