Dr. David Minkoff is an American physician and best selling author. He is the co-founder and medical director of LifeWorks Wellness Center and a regular speaker at numerous conferences on health, wellness, Lyme disease, ozone therapy, alternative cancer treatment, and autoimmune diseases.
Dr. Minkoff has always had a passion for helping others. Serving in emergency medicine at one of the top 100 hospitals in the U.S. doctor Minkoff’s passion grew for helping others in times of acute need. From broken bones, and accidents and injuries to witnessing the ravages of chronic disease, it was through these first-hand experiences that he realized serving others and alleviating their suffering was one of the greatest goods one can aspire to.
In 1992, Dr. Minkoff’s wife Sue, a Registered Nurse, became interested in nutrition and health and began to go to lectures from some of the experts in the field. At the time, Dr. Minkoff was pretty fixed in his view of traditional medicine and it took a lot of convincing to get him to come to one of these lectures. After hearing Dr. Jeffrey Bland speak, Dr. Minkoff had a eureka moment and began pursuing the alternative field with a vengeance.
Throughout this time of intensive research and study, Dr. Minkoff gained through expertise in functional and biological medicine and the role of the environment in the disease process.
This led him into further fields of research and intensive study such as:
heavy metal detoxification
pesticides & environmental toxins
detoxification protocols
regenerative medicine
hormone replacement therapy
functional medicine
energy medicine
neural and prolotherapy
homeopathy
diet
optimum nutrition.
Dr. Minkoff studied under some of the most preeminent doctors in each of these disciplines until he finally became an expert in his own right.
Clinic Information
LifeWorks Wellness Center was established to offer the very best medical treatments available and to expand the focus beyond the biomedical health model which explains that illnesses are caused by biology.
The goal was to expand this incomplete view and take into consideration what today is widely known, that social, psychological, and environmental factors also play a role in the disease process.
This opens up many more non-invasive treatment options that have a long history of assisting in the prevention, treatment, and cure of disease. While we fully use and embrace the wonders and successes of modern medicine, we also recognize that there is a wealth of both old and new technologies and treatment options that people can use today in a complementary manner to achieve even better outcomes.
In 1997 Dr. Minkoff and his wife set up a small clinic to help some friends with their medical problems.
What began as an experiment blossomed into Lifeworks Wellness Center, one of the most successful clinics for complementary medicine in the United States.
