Give the Gift of Health: A Message from Dr. Hyman

AS I WELCOME IN THE NEW YEAR at home with my family, I thought I’d take a moment to send everyone my heartfelt thanks for your support and enthusiasm for my work and that of my colleagues at The UltraWellness Center.
While there are many blessings to count, I know that there are many who suffer needlessly from complications associated with chronic illness. In every family, in every circle of friends, there is suffering because one in two Americans is inflicted by one or more chronic illness.
We have all heard the statistics about our health care crisis, but what drives me to work so hard is the need to transition current health care delivery systems to one that addresses the root causes of these diseases.
Many of you, who are familiar with my writings, teachings and practice, know that we ALREADY have the solution to end so much suffering. This solution, called functional medicine, utilizes a road map for diagnosing and treating disease.
This level of care is not yet the norm; however, as Chairman of The Institute for Functional Medicine, I am committed to training the next generation of doctors and retraining today’s practitioners to apply this model in their practices.
I recently gave a talk at TEDMED that explains this new way of treating the underlying causes of disease based on the emerging science of systems medicine.
I encourage you to watch it, share it with friends and family, and post it on your Facebook page or Tweet about it. I also encourage you to forward and share this email with your friends and family. The best thing you can do for those you love and care about is give them the gift of health and the gift of hope. And help me create a grassroots movement to transform health care.
Many of you are patients of ours, and you know that we have dedicated ourselves to this ground-breaking delivery of personalized medicine. You are familiar with our extraordinary staff, our dedication to your well being and our treatment plans that enable you to feel better than you ever thought you could.
For you, I thank you for your faith in us, and I invite you to explore our updated practice website, continue reading our newsletters and blogs, and call us if you feel you need a tune-up or additional support.
For those who haven’t been to our practice, let me tell you a bit about us. At The UltraWellness Center, we have built a center of excellence for functional medicine by assembling an incredible team of physicians, nutritionists, nurses, and support staff who are dedicated to your care. This team provides coordinated care by connecting the dots, thereby treating the system and not just the symptom.
What We Treat
Here are the kinds of issues we can help significantly through the use of functional medicine:
