Living longer is not the same as living healthy. Nova shifts the focus of medicine from a reactive illness based practice to proactive, preventative healthcare. Through a team approach to wellness patients have access to tests, services and specialists including, a registered dietician, a naturopathic physician, acupuncturists, personal trainers and a cognitive behavioral therapist, along with ongoing follow up to assist in lifestyle changes that will help them optimize their health.
