Our Philosophy
At NorthPointe Medicine we have built our lifetime of study into a practice devoted to educating you about your health and body, and the connection of your symptoms and health challenges to the balance of your Mental, Emotional and Spiritual health. Learning to practice Self Care is a necessary skill to navigate our stress-filled world and will facilitate your healing and the health of your loved ones as you learn to live a more healthy and joyful life. This knowledge and understanding coupled with our guidance and support are empowering. The more we learn and understand about what contributes to injury and illness, the more we can make healthier choices to improve our health and our lives. We work with our patients as partners, learning from each other on this lifelong journey to health, joy and ultimate wellness.
Functional Medicine
The Heart of Functional Medicine is the Mental, Emotional and Spiritual health of each individual patient. The Functional Medicine trained Practitioner takes into account all aspects of the person's life experience. She considers their history, genetics, environmental factors and lifestyle as possibly contributing to their illness and disease development, and uses a systems-oriented approach to uncover the root causes of their clinical imbalances.
-Currently, we are at capacity for seeing new Functional Medicine patients in the office.
Dr. Maddoux has created a 12 week virtual Signature Program to address the needs of clients seeking Functional Medicine support specifically for Inflammatory and Auto-Immune Diseases.
