Advanced Access to

Whole Person Care

Affordable. Comprehensive. Personalized. Accessible.

We have launched a unique, non-profit clinic to put the power of healthcare–not sickcare–back in your hands. Through a low-cost monthly subscription, you have access to a lifestyle medicine team and high quality primary care. Labs and medications are available to you at significantly reduced prices by cutting out the economic “middle man.” Hands-on culinary medicine sessions are well worth the cost (aka personalized teaching kitchens). Many additional lifestyle interventions are included with no extra charge. Same-day or next-day appointments for urgent patient needs are the norm–in our clinic, via secure video, or at your home or workplace. No co-pays, co-insurance, or surprise costs. Expect transparent, up-front pricing. We endeavor to dig deeply to uncover the underlying causes of disease, as well as provide you with the resources you need to deal with them.

We are here to deliver value in whole person care.

We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit clinic, serving in collaboration with the Lansing Seventh-day Adventist Church, offering the Lansing community a step above primary care: whole person care.

Whole person care follows Christ’s example to compassionately work to restore all aspects of individuals and families to their originally created ideal. Whole person care endeavors to address all aspects of your health concern(s)–physical, mental/emotional, spiritual, and even social. We search for the root cause(s) and take into account the context(s) in which you are dealing with your health concern. Our goal is for you to experience whole person healing

Experience prompt, comprehensive healthcare from a team who cares.

1) Primary Care:  This includes women’s health, children’s health, proactive preventative care, mental health, chronic diseases (such as diabetes, COPD, dementias, arthritis, kidney disease, heart disease, etc), and much more.

2) Lifestyle Medicine:  Infiltrating into our primary care approach is our philosophy of medicine which endeavors to address root causes of disease, instead of settling for quick-fix “bandages.” Care extends beyond the clinic with culinary medicine, physical fitness, health coaching, spiritual care, and meeting needs relating to social determinants of health. Have first access to cooking schools, exercise classes, and other community programs.

3) Urgent Care:  Our patients receive urgent care services from our team. Whether it’s examining a twisted ankle, placing stitches to close up a laceration, or testing for flu/COVID, we love to decrease the number of actual urgent care/emergency room visits our patients have to take.
