Dr. Deb Peabody -- family physician
I am a native of Maine and have been a practicing Family Physician for approximately 20 years. After working in the mainstream healthcare system for a number of years, I realized that I could not practice medicine in this way anymore. I felt that the computer and the constraints of insurance companies were interfering with my ability to care for patients. It troubled me that patients were becoming much sicker and at a younger age, and many were looking for the "pill for the ill" but nowhere were we addressing the root issue. I discovered the Functional Medicine model resonated with me, and so I embarked on a new medical practice called to help patients achieve optimal health in all the seasons of their lives.

Maura Salvatore -- integrative nutrition health coach
My interest in nutrition and wellness sparked after my husband became ill with Lyme Disease almost 10 years ago. I began to research the human body and its inner workings, and learned that my husband's body was riddled with inflammation. I changed our diets drastically, eliminating all processed foods and started juicing organic fruits and vegetables, and preparing meals with whole foods. I came to realize that our minds play an even bigger role in the healing process... positive messaging, meditation, and visualization are powerful tools that support the body's healing and continued wellness. My new path as a Health Coach has been a journey... a journey where I learned strength, self-trust, resilience, and faith.
