Dr. Dan (as most of his patients refer to him) is a Board Certified Family Medicine Physician and a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner through the Institute for Functional Medicine. He is also a ReCODE 2.0 provider with Apollo Health.
He has a passion for working collaboratively with his patients and providing them with support and education. Seeing their health and energy improve brings him joy as does working with them to prevent future illnesses/problems.
During this time he became increasingly frustrated working in this conventional medical system. He found did not have the time nor the framework to help people address their chronic health issues or help them improve their health.
He began his medical career in 2005 performing full-spectrum family medicine in rural Colorado. During this time he became increasingly bothered by the close-minded nature of the Western medical system and its inability to help persons struggling with chronic health such as dementia, chronic fatigue, irritable bowel syndrome, and fibromyalgia. In 2013 he discovered the Institute for Functional Medicine. This discovery changed the trajectory of his career and reignited his passion for medicine. Since then Dr. Dan has immersed himself in functional medicine.
His functional medicine practice focuses on:
<ul>
<li>Dementia care and prevention &#8211; Helping clients to prevent and reverse Alzheimer&#8217;s dementia</li>
<li>Improving cardiovascular health and preventing cardiovascular disease</li>
<li>Helping clients resolve underlying health conditions through the use of functional medicine.</li>
</ul>
