Robert DeSimone, MD, ABAARM, DiplACLM

Board Certified in Functional Medicine and Anesthesiology / Board Certified in Lifestyle Medicine

Our society is experiencing an epidemic in obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and chronic inflammation. A recent human prospective study showed that 88% of adult Americans are metabolically unhealthy. There is a huge need for doctors who embrace collaborative “health-span” care (how well you live your life) as opposed to the traditional model of reactive, disease-based care. For every one of my patients, my practice will allow you the time with me to focus on wellness and disease prevention. This is becoming the cornerstone of medicine in the 21st century. 

DeSimone Functional Medicine is committed to helping you achieve optimal health. Our mission is to find the root cause of your symptoms and help you achieve wellness through correcting any contributing factors that can be corrected. We look at the whole person, and not just a collection of symptoms to be corrected. We strive for balance and wellness through lifestyle management, nutrition, and naturally occurring compounds and therapies whenever possible.

Empowering you to live not just longer, but healthier and happier

I believe that good doctors listen, educate, and inspire. My goal is to provide you an exceptional healthcare experience with individualized and compassionate care.

I view the body as an integrative whole, rather than independent diseases or specific systems. My goal is to get to the root cause of your problem, not just treat symptoms. Called “Functional Medicine”, it is a collaborative approach between you and me that is 100% tailored to you, your body, and your life.
