Integrative Medicine Treats the Whole Person

Integrative medicine looks at the patient holistically, and may assess a patient in different ways in addition to traditional medical examinations and lab tests. These assessments are useful in telling us how the body is functioning, and in identifying  the root cause of your health issue. Identifying and treating the root cause of illness or imbalance  is a tenet of integrative and functional medicine. We offer more treatment options and therapies for healing mind, body and spirit, not just treating the symptoms.

Holistic & Biological Dentistry: Biological dentists use only safe, mercury-free, biocompatible materials and view your oral health as an integral part of overall health. Call 202-237-7000 ext. 2 to learn more about 21st century family dentistry or Request a dental appointment.

Scott Richards

"After having my appointment with Scott Richards I immediately felt my spirits lifted and I was suffering a lot of lower back pain and after the desensitization my pain decreased significantly. Scott was very thorough and expressed genuine concern for my well being. I appreciate all that he has done for me and hope to see him again." 9/14
