Comprehensive, Personalized Care for Lifelong Health

Over 40 Years of Trusted Medical Expertise

For more than four decades, we have helped patients improve blood sugar control, achieve sustainable weight loss, and protect long-term health. Our approach combines deep medical expertise, modern technology, and practical lifestyle strategies, all guided by your individual needs and goals.


Physician-Led Care Built Around Metabolic Health

At the Center for Preventive Medicine, care is guided by structured medical pathways that support metabolic health across every stage of life. Rather than one-size-fits-all solutions, we develop individualized care plans and clear action steps based on your health status, priorities, and data.

Together with your care team, you’ll identify the pathway that best fits your needs — and adjust it over time as those needs evolve.

“““I lost 35 pounds and feel like a new person. What made the difference was understanding how my body works — not just being told what to do.”

A Smarter, Personalized Approach to Weight, Diabetes, and Healthy Aging

We focus on what drives long-term health, not short-term fixes. Care may include medical visits, education, technology support, nutrition guidance, and medications when appropriate — all coordinated to support sustainable results.

We work collaboratively with your broader health care team to ensure care is integrated, aligned, and medically sound.

  • Our focus includes:

    • Appetite regulation and metabolic health

    • Muscle preservation and strength

    • Sustainable nutrition strategies

    • Long-term planning beyond the scale

    Rather than chasing rapid weight loss, we prioritize lasting change that protects your health..


Beyond the Scale: What We Measure Matters

  • Weight alone doesn’t tell the full story. We emphasize:

    • Fat loss while preserving muscle

    • Metabolic health markers

    • Strength, function, and energy

    This approach supports better outcomes and long-term success.

    Type 2 Diabetes Control

    For some individuals, Type 2 diabetes can improve significantly through:

    • Weight loss

    • Improved insulin sensitivity

    • Medication optimization

    • Lifestyle and nutrition support

    Care is individualized and focused on risk reduction, safety, and measurable improvement, not promises or guarantees.

    Insulin Confidence & Technology Support

    For individuals using insulin (Type 1 or Type 2), we provide:

    • Safe insulin adjustment and education

    • Prevention of low blood sugars

    • Confidence using CGMs, pumps, and glucose data

    • Clear safety and action plans

    All insulin changes are handled in individual medical visits to ensure safety.

    Healthy Aging & Longevity (Healthspan-Focused Care)

    Healthy aging is not just about living longer — it’s about staying strong, independent, and engaged.

    This pathway focuses on:

    • Strength and mobility

    • Fall risk reduction

    • Energy and resilience

    • Optimization of blood pressure, cholesterol, and glucose

    • Reducing long-term risks of cardiovascular disease and cognitive decline

    Weight loss may or may not be part of care; the priority is function, prevention, and quality of life.

Team-Based Care That Works with Your Primary Doctor

We collaborate closely with your primary care physician and other specialists. Our role is to enhance and support your overall health plan, not replace it.

A Team-Based Approach That Works with Your Primary Care Doctor
We collaborate with your primary physician to ensure seamless, expert-guided care that enhances your overall health—not replaces it..

We work to improve your healthspan not just your lifespan
We’re all familiar with what lifespan means. It’s literally just the number of years you live. But your healthspan is different. It measures not just how long you live, but how long you stay healthy. As the saying goes, “It’s not about the years in your life, but the life in your years.” While your genetics may play a role in both your lifespan and healthspan, there are steps you can take to stay healthy longer.

Contact and appointment policies

Routine requests: Call 313-885-2334 or use MyChart. Messages are reviewed during practice service hours. Tell us if you need another way to communicate.  We use Perfectserv to arrange after hours emergency appointments.

Urgent concerns: Call for guidance; same-day evaluation depends on need and availability. For emergencies, call 911 or go to an emergency department. Do not wait for a portal reply.

Give at least 24 hours’ notice to cancel. A missed visit or late cancellation may incur a $75 fee only when allowed by your plan and applicable rules; More than 10 minutes late may require a shorter or rescheduled visit. Lateness alone does not trigger a fee. Report urgent symptoms immediately for clinical assessment. Ask our team leader about emergencies, hardship or access barriers.

Care management
