Are We A Good Fit?

Our Roadmap to Vibrant Health is a unique approach designed to help committed individuals reclaim their vitality, strength, and overall well-being. By addressing the root causes of health concerns through customized, patient-centered care, we empower them to achieve lasting wellness. This renewed zest for life allows them to thrive in all aspects, regardless of past setbacks.

We partner with each patient to achieve these steps, starting with the Review Phase:

From newborns to grandparents, at Now Health, we treat everyone looking to commit to changing their lifestyles and their lives to live in optimal health.  We want people to come in our doors ready to tackle the tough stuff by shaking off bad habits and building new healthy ones.  We don’t focus on quick fixes in our office, but we do have long-term answers to your health concerns.  Our goal is to give you the tools to rebuild your health and meet your personal goals.

Unlike most doctors, we don't just ask  “What are we treating today?” but we also ask “Why?” do you have this symptom in the first place.  This approach, called Functional Medicine, lets us address the root cause of the symptoms you are experiencing so we can help treat the source of the problem. This is the pathway to help you heal from the inside out.

We like to think of ourselves as guides to understanding your body. Our years of experience and knowledge help us to create the best framework to help you reach your goals.  We can’t walk the path for you, but we’ll be there laying it out for you along the way.  We know this isn’t the easy way, but we deeply believe that consistency paired with knowledge is the best road to reach your wellness goals.

Using a Functional Medicine Approach, follow these steps to health:

Learn – Taking health back begins with learning about yourself and your individual needs. Prior to your first visit, we will ask you to fill out a questionnaire to assist us in understanding more about you. At your first visit to Now Health, we will take a baseline assessment of your nutrition, sleep, movement, spiritual, emotional, and intellectual needs to help us understand where you are and where you want to go.

Create – Once we establish a baseline of how your body is functioning, we can start to figure out what you need so you can take steps toward creating the life you want. The functional practitioners at Now Health will create a framework of health for you to take home and implement.

Live – Adopting this framework of treatments, lifestyle changes, and self-healing, you will begin to live the full life you want with good health as the goal.

Promote – Let good health be contagious in your life. Pass along your knowledge and success to your family and community members.

Now Health is a membership-based practice combining Family Medicine with Functional and Integrative Medicine principles. Our monthly membership program offers two options: one for insured patients (where we bill insurance and collect copays for office visits) and another for uninsured patients (which includes 4 visits and member lab panels). We have a special program for our Medicare patients. 

All new patients begin with a comprehensive 90-minute initial consultation, allowing us to fully understand your health journey and create your personalized treatment plan.

Our collaborative care approach focuses on building lifelong health skills that serve you and your entire family – supported by doctors and health coaches.

You'll learn about health topics around gut health, detox, weight loss, chronic conditions, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, and obesity – and how to adapt your lifestyle, habits and environment for optimal wellness that lasts a lifetime.

At Now Health, you’ll be joined by a care team to ensure the fastest return back to health and the most complete system of care.

As such, our integrative medicine approach under the guidance of Dr. Jill Valerius and Aubrey Spangler, APRN focuses on:

Using a variety of treatment modalities, including using food as medicine in tandem with state-of-the-art testing.

Focusing holistically on all the areas that impact your health… including mind, emotions, and mindset.

Teaching patients how to take an active role in health creation, so that they can heal and/or keep chronic illness at bay.

Focusing on optimal health, based on your unique biological needs, not just the absence of symptoms or disease.

Acknowledging the multifactorial nature of complex causes of illness, which requires an experienced clinician who can pinpoint the reasons you have the illness and craft the correct treatment plan.

Using natural, non-toxic therapies, as much as possible, harnessing the body’s amazing ability to heal itself.
