THE HEALING POWER OF HUMAN CONNECTION.
Practice philosophy
Dr. Satnick has seen the power of connection and trust building between patient and physician transform the lives of her patients and her practice. By practicing integrative medicine she is able to use all available resources for her patients to help them make changes in their lives. As appropriate she will prescribe medications and also make suggestions for changes in nutrition, sleep, exercise, yoga/meditation, mindfulness practices and supplements. Because she truly gets to know who you are as a person, she will choose the recommendations that are just right for you or you loved ones.
