DR. GOs APPROACH TO GOOD HEALTH
Dr. Gos major goals are to help you feel good and love life! She welcomes all people to her clinic, as she sees her patients as people, not conditions. Each person experiences conditions/symptoms uniquely and individually which means each person receives a treatment individual to his/her health and personal situation. There is no such thing as a cookie-cutter approach when working with peoples health. When assessing ones health, Dr. Go takes into account all aspects of the persons life including physical, mental-emotional, genetic, environmental, social, spiritual and other factors that could be influencing his/her health. Disease affects the entire person, not just a specific organ or system. It is important to carefully assess and address ones nutritional status, lifestyle, family history, feelings, environmental stresses, and physical health. Using this information, she figures out the root cause of a persons concerns and treats the root cause in order to create a longer-lasting or permanent solution to stop the illness from coming back. She believes the body has an innate ability to heal itself and her job is to help support it in the right direction and speed up the healing process to increase your quality of life.
Teaching people how to live a healthy lifestyle that can be easily incorporated into their everyday routines is a huge passion for Dr. Go. Education empowers people and can make a world of difference in how they feel on a daily basis.
