First Visit

waiting-roomDr. Salerno practices complementary or integrative medicine, which combines the teachings of traditional medicine and the wisdom of alternative healing.  His expertise is the ability to know when to utilize holistic medicine, when to use conventional medicine, and when to combine the two.

The majority of diseases do not have just one cause, and there are typically many dysfunctions in the body that cause the symptoms you are suffering.  Every patient’s case is unique, therefore, in addition to the routine blood testing that you might get in a typical doctor’s office, Dr. Salerno will also evaluate for nutritional and environmental causes for your particular problem.  He will also do extensive immunological and hormonal testing if necessary to evaluate the various systems in the body, even if on a surface level it does not appear to be related to your problem.  This approach to modern medicine is what has helped so many patients, and quite literally saved lives.

On your first visit, Dr. Salerno will personally review your entire medical history and allow you the opportunity to express your personal concerns and expectations.  He will perform a full physical and a resting ECG (electrocardiograph) to determine the condition of the heart.

Some of the tests that Dr. Salerno might do include:

  • Vitamin profile blood test
  • Essential nutrient blood test
  • IGG food allergy blood test
  • Adrenal saliva test
  • Stool test
  • Neurotransmitters levels test
  • TRH Stimulation test (clickable- take to TRH page)

iv-roomEvery patient’s case is unique.  Dr. Salerno’s approach is to treat the patient, not the disease.  

We request that you download our new patient forms, fill them out, and fax or mail them to us at least five days prior to you first appointment.  This allows Dr. Salerno sufficient time to study your health history and prepare for your first visit.  It also ensures that your time in our office is spent with the doctor and not filling out paperwork.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions.  We are here to help you every step of the way on your journey back to health and wellness.
