Doctors of Osteopathy and the healthcare community at large are acknowledging the relationship between diet and behavior. As Attention Deficit Disorder, hyperactivity, and autism continue to rise, more research is being done to identify possible links to diet and nutrition. Children with such disorders often experience problems with digestion, food cravings, and gastrointestinal function on a regular basis. Their parents face complex issues and many have seen both physical and behavioral improvements through nutritional therapy.

With an extensive family practice background and special concern for children struggling with these conditions, Dr. Wand combines traditional and non-traditional medicinal therapies to meet the distinctive needs of these patients and their families. One example: We’ve incorporated the many suggestions parents have given to us for making our exam rooms and clinic environment as comfortable as possible. In addition, our other services include:

• Physical exam and comprehensive nutritional health history. Dr. Wand also reviews other medical records and works with other providers if desired.

• Laboratory testing

• Development of nutritional programs. We continually update our resource list to include options and alternative sources for products.

• Education and resources on low intolerance foods such as gluten or dairy
