spirit of old time medicine, where the doctor takes time to listen and understand the patient, thereby fostering a space of trust and sacredness. Use of herbs and dietary approaches focus on this "back to basics" sensibility, knowing that with nutritional sustenance acting as a solid foundation, healing can and will occur.
he modalities in Integrative Medicine therefore offer patients physical, energetic, and spiritual renewal, effecting healing on all levels.
There are not enough great things I can say about Dr. Job as my Primary Care Physician. During this time I have worked with Dr. Job on a wide variety of health issues as simple as needing antibiotics for cold/flu to as serious as a potentially life threatening disease. Through all of it I could count on Dr. Job for excellent care including honest straight forward answers, open minded interaction and all around excellent "bed side" manner. I don't believe anyone can say they look forward to going to the doctor however knowing I will be working with Dr. Job on whatever I need care for makes the trip to the doctor virtually painless."
"When Dr. Craig Job inquired about my spiritual and physical well being, I was very pleasantly surprised. This was a refreshing change from traditional medicine and I gladly shared with him my appreciation for his interest and suggestions. In addition to traditional medical information, he is a wealth of knowledge in living well; mind, body and soul."Craig Job, M.D. Announces Alliance with
