What is Lifestyle Medicine?

Lifestyle Medicine is an evidence-based approach that empowers individuals to prevent, treat, and even reverse chronic disease by addressing the root causes of illness. At Collins Center for Medicine, we integrate the principles of Lifestyle Medicine into personalized care plans for our patients.
