About Forest View Medical Clinic
Our Philosophy
Forest View Medical Clinic is a family medicine direct primary care dedicated to helping you find health as a state of both the body and the soul. Our faith in Jesus Christ is the center of our daily practice of medicine. We want you to build the foundation of a life that is whole and holy - the life for which you were made to live in abundance. We abide by all the teachings of the Church without exception. We believe faith is the foundation for true health and well-being. Without Jesus, we can do nothing!
Body
We believe that Jesus Christ must be the “why” in our medical practice so that all aspects of our lives are rightly ordered. Many of today’s health care practices over emphasize aspects of physical health, such as lab results, nutrition and exercise, body image/composition and aesthetics - without addressing the patient’s mental and spiritual state. Sometimes their recommended practices are in direct conflict with the teachings of the Church, making them contrary to our true health and well-being.
and soul
At the same time, many prioritize the care of their soul while neglecting their physical health. Because God has made the human person a composite of body and soul, we know that true health will involve not merely a balance of both body and soul, but their harmony.
All are Invited
While not all health discussions will involve discussions of faith, many will. We respect patients of all faiths or no faith. Our faith will always guide and inform our practice of medicine. We invite you to consider whether this approach to health is right for you and to meet our family here at Forest View Medical Clinic.
