Laurie Blanscet, DO

"Dr. Laurie Blanscet is a board certified Family Physician who has always had a great interest in preventive medicine.  When she started her private practice in 1999, she attempted to practice preventive, holistic medicine in a traditional insurance based practice but sadly she found that it was too difficult within the confines of insurances.  In her efforts to provide quality care to her patients, she found herself working longer and longer hours.  Insurances do not value time spent with patients preventing illnesses and they barely allow enough time to treat illnesses adequately.  "

"Many patients searching for hormonal balance are also looking for head to toe care. Dr. Blanscet offers a concierge medicine option for those patients like you that want more complete care.

Traditional medicine is focused on keeping you from dying. Integrative medicine is focused on keeping you feeling optimal: allowing you to truly live your life.

Insurances force doctors to practice traditional medicine. They pay doctors based on the diseases that you have and restrict the time the doctor can spend with you. All they can do is try and put out the “fires” that happen to your body. Doctors are there to help you but they need to keep the lights on in order to do this. Thus they are stuck in the trap of only being able to keep you from dying."
