Tiffany, 31

After years of seeing different doctors and taking multiple different medications for depression, anxiety, weight gain, and pre-diabetes, I am now off of all anti-depressant medications, and my blood sugar levels are naturally balanced. I finally found a real and lasting path to healing which has truly changed my life.

Jake, 37

I had been dealing with a long list of unexplained symptoms, and after doing the necessary testing, it turns out I had mold toxicity all along. Coty helped educate me on getting the mold remediated in my home, and walked me through my treatment and mold detox journey every step of the way. I finally feel like myself again.

I never knew healthcare like this existed. Coty spends so much time with me, asks questions, and treats me with the utmost compassion as I talk him through parts of my health journey that are not easy for me to talk about. My husband was skeptical about the idea of holistic medicine at first, but as I began to heal, he started seeing Coty as his primary provider, too. We are so thankful we found Palomino and are healthier for it.

Our Services

Our aim is not only to heal but also to educate and empower individuals, fostering a lifetime of wellness.

At PIFM, we serve adult and pediatric patients (3 months and older). We specialize in treating chronic conditions, partnering with patients who seek a holistic approach to their health journey, especially those who have felt let down by conventional Western medicine. Our mission is to offer guidance to individuals who have explored various avenues without success and are eager to break free from the cycle of traditional medical protocols. Rather than merely addressing symptoms with medication, which often conceals underlying issues, we strive to nurture our patients back to vitality by treating the root cause of illness. Our aim is not only to heal but also to educate and empower individuals, fostering a lifetime of wellness.

PEDIATRIC PATIENTS

At PIFM, we accept pediatric patients 3 months and older. We do not require our pediatric patients to be vaccinated and we do not administer childhood vaccines. We practice a holistic approach to primary pediatric care, blending functional and the best of conventional medicine.

our philosophy

Commitment to holistic care.

At PIFM, we take the time to really listen to our patients, considering not just symptoms but also the patient's lifestyle, environment, and personal history in our quest to identify the root cause of illness.

Our commitment is to provide thorough, compassionate care, emphasizing a holistic approach that addresses the physical, emotional, mental, social, and spiritual facets of health.

We begin our approach to addressing illness from the gut, and gradually extend our focus outward throughout the body. Beyond conventional lab testing utilized by many clinicians, we also use specialized tests involving blood, stool, saliva, and urine that offer a more comprehensive insight into each patient's internal condition.

As we tailor a customized care plan to each individual patient, we use a combination of nutraceuticals, herbal supplementation, IV Therapy, prescription pharmaceuticals when needed, nutritional coaching, and advanced therapies. Our goal is to help steward a thriving environment for the body in order to support its’ God-given ability to heal and be well.
