If you’re feeling sluggish, forgetful, and just plain old, it can be frustrating to see your quality of life decline. Chronic illnesses like arthritis, diabetes, and heart disease can make it difficult to do the things you love and enjoy life to the fullest. But don’t despair, because there is hope.
Enter Dr. Bernice Wong, a medical maverick who has been shaking things up in the Boston area for over 20 years. As an experienced medical doctor, Dr. Wong has a deep understanding of the aging process and the challenges it brings. She is dedicated to helping her patients live their best lives, regardless of their age or health condition
Dr. Wong is a pioneer in the field of functional medicine, which is a holistic and patient-centered approach to healthcare that is revolutionizing the way we think about illness and wellness. Functional medicine recognizes that every patient is unique, and therefore requires a personalized approach to their care.
Unlike traditional medicine, which focuses on treating symptoms, functional medicine aims to identify the root cause of disease and address it through a combination of nutrition, lifestyle changes, and targeted interventions. By doing so, functional medicine practitioners like Dr. Wong can help prevent and even reverse chronic illnesses of aging such as dementia, diabetes, and frailty, which are often caused by a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors.
By taking a proactive approach to healthcare, patients who work with Dr. Wong and other functional medicine practitioners are able to achieve optimal health and wellness, rather than simply managing symptoms. They learn how to nourish their bodies with the right foods, reduce stress, and incorporate movement into their daily lives, all of which can help them live longer, more vibrant lives.
Dr. Wong is the expert you need to guide you on your journey to optimal health. She’s not your average doctor – she takes the time to get to know each of her patients, to understand their unique health concerns and goals. Then, armed with cutting-edge lab testing for food sensitivities, adrenal and hormonal balance, microbiome and nutritional balance, heavy metals, toxins, and infections, she develops an individualized, holistic health plan that addresses your specific needs.
