Our Mission
In a Nutshell
There are simple ways to improve your biological function, including cell receptor function, enzyme function, hormone production and quality, neurotransmitter production, DNA/RNA SNPs (single-nucleotide polymorphisms), body metabolism, energy production at the mitochondrial level, cellular and organ detox, eliminate damaging free-radicals, reduce inflammation, etc.
The Possibilities
Do you know anyone who suffers from Fibromyalgia? These patients, in my medical experience, are often discounted or minimized to some degree. Natural help is available. Metabolic derangements can predispose you to Fibromyalgia.
An amino acid deficiency can lead to CHF and cardiomyopathy.
Learn if you have MTHFR.
Learn if you have PEMT that can result in fatty liver disease, NAFLD, NASH, etc. PEMT is associated with Obesity and Type II Diabetes.
Is it possible to have old world diseases like Beriberi in a developed, affluent country like the U.S.? Yes!
What about Scurvy? Maybe Pellagra? Yes and yes!
Are you at risk for Wernicke’s or Korsakoff’s brain damage due to a deficient vitamin?

A note from Dr. Dean Nelson:
In my 30 years in medicine, I’ve grown increasingly disillusioned with the business model of medicine. Physicians are often forced by hospitals and clinics to be production-based. This is the prevalent model that requires us to see many patients in a short order of time, as quickly as possible. In fact, I’ve been disallowed by practice managers to build in more time for visits with complicated patients who required more time and attention. Physicians are not paid to take the time required to render effective care. Current medical care seems to be mostly about ‘sick care’ and treating symptoms instead of getting at root causes. We individually are not one-size-fits-all. It is possible for you to get personalized and precise care.
Additionally, the government requirement of Electronic Medical Records in mainstream medicine forces doctors to spend much of our time in patient face-to-face encounters with our attention to a computer screen. The sheer volume necessitates that most doctors accomplish this during the visit to cut down on the after-hour documentation demands. I’ve felt bad for the patient during these encounters, as doctors are under a lot of pressure to meet so-called “quality measures” and other metrics for billers/chart reviewers. I’ve often quipped that this has turned physicians into high-paid data entry clerks.
The speed at which physicians are required to see most patients has, in my opinion, watered down care, or caused us to become less thorough than we would prefer. It has become more about volume and productivity. Care suffers. Physicians are also increasingly being replaced by mid-level providers, i.e., Physician Assistants and Nurse Practitioners. I mean no disrespect. They, like most of us, must resort to superficial visits that the allotted time, or their training level, supports.
To complicate matters more, insurance companies have for years been reducing physician reimbursement while our costs continue to rise. Doctors’ practices must hire extra staff to do the complicated billing and handle the frequent, unnecessary payment denials. Pre-authorizations, even if granted, can be very tedious and time-consuming. This is a problem, not just with private insurance, but also with government or state payor sources.

More About Us
Just prior to another military deployment to Poland, I was blessed to listen to one of the world’s leading experts in Health and Wellness who fuses modern medicine with integrative therapies. He is an expert at finding patient root cause problems when other medical practices do not. Dr. Purser is a medical lecturer all over the world and the author of multiple best sellers. After my return from Poland, I had the priceless opportunity to train with him in functional and lifestyle medicine. He is world renowned, and achieves an approximate 98% success rate.
When I first heard Dr. Purser address an audience of physicians, I was prompted to pivot from my 3 decades in mainstream medical care models to this more holistic, natural and effective approach to medicine. It gets to root causes at the molecular, microcellular, biochemical, and genetic levels. Profound biotechnology is available to help patients really get to the bottom of why they have felt so bad, often for years.
Patients are tired of being told by their Primary Care Provider (PCP) that there is “nothing wrong”, or that their “labs are normal”. Patients know their bodies the best. They know when they do not feel well, or when something is just not right. One of the worst things that a doctor or provider can tell their patients is that it “must be all in their head.”
Our sincerest desire is to help you to preserve your health and wellness, and/or to restore and maintain it. We partner with you to seek answers or solutions, even when none seem apparent. We collaborate with experts in the field for solutions that are based in science and research.
We assist you with the necessary knowledge to take charge and govern your own health and wellness in natural ways. We rely upon background and training in Nutrition Science, coupled with complementary and modern medicine. We help you to harness the power of advanced biotechnology to find answers and propose treatments for you.
We do not replace your personal primary care provider (PCP). We hope only to augment and bring value-added solutions.
In my opinion, we have gotten too far away from the integrated effectiveness of natural medicine, complementary medicine, alternative medicine, and nutrition-based treatment options. We can tap into treatments that some cultures, like Chinese, have known for several millennia.
We partner with and may recommend products or supplements from industry leaders that are grounded in scientific evidence, scientific data, clinical use, and empirical results.
We aim to provide solutions validated by third-party testing to ensure potency and purity. After all, we all want the reassurance that we are getting what we are paying for. We, through collaboration with some of the world’s leading experts, cut through the fluff so that we can confidently recommend products. We discuss options and alternatives where possible.
We are here to help you, the patient, to metaphorically steer the rudder of your own ship. We help to provide the necessary information and education. At the end of the day, we are not content if we haven’t helped you. You are at the center of the care that we render.
The biotech revolution has made advances to maximize your health to function optimally, and to incorporate prevention strategies. It’s important to us to restore your hope with actionable and practical solutions. You deserve the highest quality of life possible. You may even improve your lifespan.
We would be pleased to assist you in your journey of hope, health, and wellness. Precision Medicine can help restore your vitality and zest. Natural remedies are available to help you reduce or eliminate fatigue, mental fog, depression, anxiety….in short, to heal and strengthen you.
It would be our privilege to help catalyze the change that you desire. We can help you identify genetic risks or gene SNPs to enable risk mitigation. We are all, to a great extent, products of our genetic inheritance. Most risks that we develop or inherit are modifiable.
Be reassured that you can affect both the quantity and quality of your life. It is possible to expand both your physical and emotional energy.
Take control. Find and learn what works for you and for those you love. Subtle or small changes can result in profound improvements to your feeling & achieving health and well-being, improved energy and quality of life.
Most of us are unaware of the availability of pharmaceutical-quality supplements obtainable without a prescription. Quality products have the capability to restore our energy, and the improved mental clarity is tremendous.
As the great motivator, speaker, and author, Tony Robbins points out in one of his books, there are new methods to restore the body at the cellular and molecular levels. It is possible to reinvigorate and revive damaged organs and conquer illness. We can now amplify the body’s natural capacity to repair and renew itself. The exponential growth in medical knowledge and technology allows more potential approaches to eliminate suffering, restore our health, and enhance our well-being.
Precision Medicine is personalized, proactive, and forward-looking. It is more about looking for and treating ‘Root Causes’.
