Functional Medicine is a dynamic approach to assessing, preventing and treating complex chronic disease. Dr. Wertheimer's passion for practice is fueled by his belief that nutrient dense eating combined with aggressive reduction in exposure to environmental toxins, treatment of food sensitivities and appropriate use of supplements alters the way our genetics are manifest and leads to optimal function and healing of the human body.
At Wertheimer Center we offer our patients the best of both worlds when it comes to healthcare. We offer the unique opportunity of working with a double board certified Internist/Cardiologist who combines full knowledge of 'Standard Practice' with use of the best Integrative diagnostics and treatments. We use medication, but we use it sparingly, and often in conjunction with other treatment modalities. Our goal is always to get to the real cause of the disease, and not just treat your symptoms.
From the moment a patient steps through the doors at Wertheimer Center, they are entering into our care. Our dedicated team of professionals treats both our patients current needs and also anticipates future ones. Dr. Wertheimer is an investigative doctor whose passion lies in the deep understanding of complex cases. For your first visit, Dr. Wertheimer will spend 2 hours delving into your history, your lifestyle, and any and all of your health concerns. Each consecutive session, is typically one hour.

At Wertheimer Center we focus on Preventive Care. When we talk about 'preventive care' in standard medical practice, what we really mean is 'early detection' - 'find the breast cancer before it is too big' or 'detect the blockage in the coronary arteries before you have a heart attack'. While early detection is useful and important, true prevention is a much better idea. Never getting the breast cancer or never developing the blockage is a far more appealing option. By addressing root cause issues, illnesses are often avoided. It is never too late to change your path.
Every body is unique - everyone's chemistry is different. A 'one-size-fits all' or 'this supplement is good for that illness' will rarely allow your body to heal properly and reach its full potential. Using data from advanced biochemical / physiological diagnostic testing, we deliver custom solutions, tailored to you and your one-of-a-kin

Chronic diseases are almost never caused by 'one thing'. There are always reasons behind why we get sick and the answers to the question of 'Why?' always involve your chemistry and physiology.
