Fellow In Training
Dr. Benita Swartout
“The human body is resilient; it has the unique ability to heal itself, given the right circumstances. Integrative medicine makes it possible to address each patient’s needs on an individual basis, to help optimize the body’s natural healing process. As hormones decline, the body ceases to function optimally and loses its resiliency. With bioidentical hormone therapy, I am able to help my patients balance their hormones naturally and achieve optimal overall health.”
