Our practice
Live Oak Medicine is an integrative family practice, extending modern medicine by integrating osteopathy, homeopathy, and Anthroposophic medicine with conventional healthcare. This approach offers a holistic and individualized approach to healing.
We understand that the body, mind, and spirit are interwoven throughout all stages of health and illness and we work to integrate these aspects in our patient care.
Our clinic is made up of a team of medical providers that includes physicians, nurses, and therapists. We offer a wide scope of healthcare for infants, children and adults and provide continuity by encouraging patients to access other practitioners in our group as needed. Our providers frequently communicate with other physicians, dentists, therapists and healthcare providers to coordinate a comprehensive treatment plan as a team.
However, we do not offer the full spectrum of primary care services or 24 hour care. Because of this, we require our patients to maintain a relationship with a Primary Care Provider.
The importance of having a Primary Care Provider or PCP cannot be over-emphasized. Some examples of when you would need to contact your PCP include:
- urgent care needs, traumatic injuries, and hospital admissions
- after-hours and on-call physician access
- some routine examinations and procedures not provided by our clinic, such as gynecological exams
- referrals or orders for studies that are only covered in-network
- refills on prescriptions managed by your PCP or specialist
