Who Should You Trust With Your Health?
Tales of American Health
A 56 Yr old female: Depression & Fatigue
Jean is a widow, mother of three, grandmother of two and a social worker. She suffers from fatigue and depression. Her husband was just a few years away from retirement when he suddenly died a year ago from a massive stroke. Her depression was exacerbated at the loss of her spouse. Worries of sustaining herself and her last child at home, disharmony in her extended family and other cares have overwhelmed her, and she tires at the thought of going to work or even trying to enjoy her grandchildren. She is reluctant to get checked out in fear that those who attend her will tell her the “same” things and not get to the core physical issues. Nonetheless, she enters that exasperating cycle again more to gain a listening ear than to get her health back. Deep down inside, she knows there’s another way…
67 yr old: History & Hopelessness
Joel is a seasoned union plumber. Though he could retire, he won’t because he loves his job so much. He has a history of heart disease in his family which has made for a few close “calls” in his life. A few years ago, he had a heart attack which eventually resulted in a double by-pass surgery and a long time in bed. Though he has been more careful since that time, Joel cannot seem to win over his excess weight. Leg and back pains continually plague Joel. He is hampered from fully performing on his job because his pain is unbearable. Trips to the chiropractor have helped little. He feels as if his whole body is imbalanced. He has lost control of his health, and his hope for recovering his health is fading...
Do these tales sound all too familiar? Have you experienced frustration just in going to a doctor let alone in seeking relief? Though these tales are not exhaustive of the American health experience, they are illustrative of real life situations that we have seen come through our doors. The common threads that tie them together are: frustration with and distrust for the establishment or with self, superficial care and/or a lack of power to change.
At Pareja Medical Center, we don’t necessarily eschew the establishment or reject traditional methods of patient care that truly work. We integrate traditional medicine with innovative, alternative techniques to help each patient attain an improved quality of health. See more about this under our Philosophy of Medicine. So, if you are tired of long waits for quick fixes, weary of surface treatments or fearful that you are losing your health, you have come to the right place. Dr. Pareja and his staff are attentive to your needs and will work with you and empower you towards a better quality of life. We’re in it—with you— for the long haul. Are you?
