About the Practice

Our Clinic

Element Health provides personalized care by limiting the number of patients each physician sees, allowing for same-day appointments, unhurried visits, and direct access to your doctor — even after hours. Their approach emphasizes holistic, root-cause medicine supported by comprehensive annual exams, advanced testing, and customized wellness and chronic disease management plans. They also help patients coordinate specialist and hospital care when needed.

Element Health is a Leader — Here’s Why We’re Different:

  • Our physicians care for half as many patients.


  • If you wish, we can offer a more holistic approach to treatment.


  • A lower doctor/patient ratio means same-day appointments, and no long waits.


  • Conversations with your doctor aren’t rushed.


  • WellcomeMD offers a range of new advances in chronic disease management, advanced lab tests, and supplements; superb, personalized nutritional and wellness/exercise coaching, and doctor-driven weight loss programs.



  • We’re your advocate in navigating that user-unfriendly healthcare environment you may know well. We can help you find a specialist, and we’ll talk to a specialist when you need to be seen quickly.
  • Our doctors are on call for their own patients.
