A wide array of hereditary, lifestyle, and environmental factors continually affect a person’s autoimmune system. And when the autoimmune system goes awry, serious illness, thyroid disease, weight gain, loss of energy, physical problems, sexual issues, and many other disorders can result.

Vazquez, MD FACS is the East Valley’s first fellowship-trained endocrine surgeon – whose specialty in endocrine issues arose from her own personal struggles with autoimmune thyroid disease.

Preventative Medicine
We are all genetically predisposed to certain familial medical diseases and illnesses, and the biggest tool we have is prevention. Modalities to prevent disease include Supplements, as well as lifestyle and dietary counseling, all tailored to fit every patient’s individual needs.
Prescription Medications
We believe that holistic modalities are vital in healing and treatment, but recognize that prescriptions may be necessary. Our providers have the ability to prescribe medications for those individuals who may require it.
Diet & Lifestyle Counseling
We work with our patients to achieve overall well-being by supporting them with a customized diet/lifestyle plan. Areas we focus on include:
- Stress management
- Low inflammation diets (Lucinda is certified in the AIP Protocol)
- Food allergies and sensitivities
- Weight loss
- Supporting lymphatic drainage
- Addressing food relationships & listening to your body in order to achieve food freedom
General & Specialty Lab Services
We offer lab testing ordered through Sonora Quest or LabCorp, and provide patients with requisition forms for a myriad of testing based on specific needs. We also order testing for IgE (allergy), IgG (intolerances), and IgA (intolerances), environmental toxin exposures, stool analysis, vitamin and mineral tests, heavy metals, and SIBO through a variety of different labs.
Food Allergies & Sensitivities
Food allergy symptoms are typically immediate and range from mild to severe. Food sensitivities, however, are considered delayed reactions and may not manifest for hours or days. We can test for IgE (allergies) and IgG (sensitivities). Reactions to food can wreak havoc on our bodies, resulting in weight-gain, brain fog, skin irritation, headaches & digestive ailments. Please note: we do not provide in-house lab services at this time.
Nutritional Supplements
We provide pharmaceutical-grade nutritional supplements in-office and online via Fullscript. We only purchase products from manufacturers we feel we can trust. These supplements are hand-picked and vetted by our providers, as we understand that quality standards for supplements are very important. We provide a custom supplement protocol tailored to the specific needs of our patients.
