Nina Levy M.D. the founder and director of MediWellness, is a Board Certified Internist. She received her M.D. from the University of Vienna, Austria and completed her residency in New York at the University of Rochester, Affiliate Program. Dr. Levy served as a primary care physician for several years, eventually finding exclusive practice of conventional Western Medicine limiting. She has logged in hundreds of hours of continuing education in both Traditional and Complimentary health care, as well as trained with some of the leading physicians in the field of Integrative and Holistic Medicine. She is a member of the American College of Advancement in Medicine (ACAM) and the American Holistic Medical Association (AHMA). Dr. Levy has dedicated her practice to "Wellness" because she understands the vital importance in maintaining optimum health to support a busy and active lifestyle. From the initial comprehensive appointment, Dr. Levy will assess and address all of your concerns and needs, including a Complete Physical, Male and Female Hormone Balancing, Neurotransmitter Testing, Thyroid, Micronutrient testing, Sexual Dysfunction, Stress and Anxiety Relief, Full blood work-up including highly specialized lab tests , as well as Mammograms and Pap Smears upon request. Dr. Nina Levy combines the best of natural alternative medicine and state-of-the-art conventional medicine. Her unique customized approach to patient care will offer you more options leading to the right solutions for optimal results. Dr. Levy believes in the importance of balancing body and mind using a combination of proper nutrition, vitamins and supplements, rather than the exclusive use of prescription drugs that could lead to a dependency for life; though accurately and conservatively prescribing when necessary. For example, so many of us today are suffering from unrelieved symptoms including Insomnia, Anxiety, Depression, Fatigue, Weight Gain, Joint Pain, PMS, Menopausal Symptoms or conditions such as Fibromyalgia, ADHD, ADD. All of these symptoms can have a common thread. Doctors in the “Wellness” community now understand that the brain chemicals called "Neurotransmitters" are often the underlying cause of so many symptoms and conditions in our society. By balancing these "Neurotransmitters" (comprised of hormones as well as serotonin, dopamine, GABA and other components in the brain that can affect imbalances) these symptoms. Dr. Levy will explain the latest innovations in the Medical Field; how to assess Neuroendocrine Imbalances, when imbalanced how they can disrupt your life, then the steps to take to achieve balance in the brain resulting in improved overall health and quality of life. Poor health is often the result of nutrient deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, or neurotransmitter imbalances . Add chronic stress, insomnia, poor dietary habits, an unhealthy lifestyle and a depressed metabolism and anyone can suffer from a wide range of diseases. The types of foods we crave (carbohydrates, chocolate or sweets) and the time of day we crave them (late afternoon or evening) may characterize specific neurotransmitter deficiencies. In fact, serotonin depletion is one of the most common imbalances in our culture. For some, just a slight hormone abnormality can produce life disrupting symptoms that can be remedied with the proper hormone balancing. Though hard to believe that in these modern times people could suffer from nutrient deficiencies, they do. The issue can be whether the nutrients from your food and supplements are being efficiently absorbed at their optimum levels to attain the intended health benefits. Ignoring these imbalances and combined stressors can eventually lead to serious conditions like heart disease, cancer, diabetes or impaired brain function.
