Dr. Chiti Parikh
As an Integrative Medicine practitioner I focus on a holistic approach to care, that addresses not only physical, but also psychological, social, spiritual and environmental influences on health. By spending more time with my patients, I create a personalized treatment plan that is tailored to the individual’s unique needs and circumstances. I combine the most cutting edge innovations of modern medicine with integrative modalities such as yoga, meditation, acupuncture and nutrition to help prevent diseases and attain optimal health.
