Their Functional Medicine Approach
Unlike a conventional model, the Five Journeys’ primary care is built upon a functional approach to medicine and health. Five Journeys partners with patients to develop a strong foundation of health, looking at how their daily habits, nutrition, and detoxification pathways influence their overall wellness. The clinic is dedicated to finding and addressing the root causes of health concerns, ensuring that a patient’s care is as unique as they are.
Our Services
Pediatrics
The clinic provides a functional pediatric care approach that focuses on a holistic view of a child’s health. The core philosophy is to look beyond symptoms and uncover the root causes of health concerns, believing that a child’s well-being is influenced by various factors. The care model addresses five core aspects of health: Chemical, Emotional, Social, Spiritual, and Structural. Our approach investigates underlying issues such as gut imbalances, nutritional gaps, or immune problems.
Everyday and Preventive Care
The clinic helps patients get healthy and stay that way. Its services cover everything from state-of-the-art screening and disease prevention to personalized lifestyle advice. If a patient wakes up with the flu or a questionable rash, the clinic can diagnose and treat a wide spectrum of illnesses, providing the care they need without a trip to the ER.
Women’s Health
The primary care providers at Five Journeys are fully equipped to handle most women’s health issues. They offer care for everything from birth control and sexual health to cancer screenings, menopause support, and other gynecological concerns.
Mental Health
The clinic believes a patient’s mental health is a vital part of their overall well-being. Whether they are feeling off or dealing with depression, anxiety, insomnia, or something more complex, the clinic offers a suite of mental health services to support them.
Meet Dr. Wendie Trubow
