Personalized Medicine

“It is far more important to know what person the disease has than what disease the person has” –

Hippocrates

Forum Health Chicago is a state-of-the art medical practice specializing in Personalized Medicine. Our physicians are trained in the highest level of education and in the most up-to-date areas of personalized medicine.

Personalized medicine is the customization of healthcare – with medical tests, decisions, and therapies being tailored to the individual patient. Personalized medicine is a multi-faceted approach to patient care that not only improves our ability to diagnose and treat disease, but offers the potential to optimize health by detecting disease at an earlier stage, when it is easier to treat effectively.

The full implementation of personalized medicine encompasses:

  • Service – Our office provides high quality service to our patients. Our patients to not wait to see or talk to a physician, unlike many other medical offices. We understand that your time is important. We understand that being your choice of healthcare provider means that it is important for you to be able to be seen promptly, contact your physician easily. Our patient satisfaction is the highest in Chicago.
  • Risk Assessment – Advanced diagnostic testing including cardiovascular, hormonal, cancer and genetic testing
  • Prevention – Behavior, Lifestyle, Nutritional, Hormonal, Sleep and Stress Intervention
  • Detection – Early detection of disease at the molecular level
  • Diagnosis – Accurate diagnosis enabling individualized treatment strategies
  • Treatment – Improved outcomes through targeted treatments and reduced side effects
  • Management – Active monitoring of treatment response

 

The approach relies on scientific breakthroughs in our understanding of a person’s unique molecular (metabolomics) and genetic (genome) profile.

Far above the traditional testing available to most patients, our physicians are equipped with diagnostic tests which are more precise so that our physicians can select a therapy or treatment based on a patient’s molecular profile that will optimize health, minimize harmful side effects and ensure a more successful outcome.

Advanced Cardiovascular Testing
Highly advanced testing of lipid profiles including cholesterol particle numbers, inflammatory markers, and genetic markers which predict on an individual basis which patients are at higher risk for heart disease, stroke and diabetes
Metabolomics Testing
The effect of environment and nutrition on our health is now able to be assessed in more detail with the testing of hundreds of metabolites which determine if our bodies are missing nutrients, detecting toxins and determining how effectively our gut is working (micro biome)
Genetic Testing
Whether determining your current illness, predicting risk for future health issues, or assessing how you will respond to medications and therapies, Genetic Testing is at the core of Personalized Medicine.
Hormonal Testing
Determining how your body is communicating with itself sheds a great deal of light as to how your body is working. Balancing of hormonal issues promotes health and wellness.
Cancer Testing
Early detection of cancer equates with success of cancer treatment. Our physicians utilize diagnostic testing and procedure to optimize a patient’s health and guide treatment if needed.

For those patients with whom traditional medicine has failed, for those patients who wish to optimize their health and their longevity, we offer a free 15 minute discussion free of charge for you to speak with one of our physicians.
