Philosophy: I believe that commitment is essential for achieving and maintaining optimal wellness. My responsibility is to help each person realize his or her physical, emotional, mental and spiritual potential. • Health is not just freedom from disease; it is the state in which body, mind and spirit are able to achieve its full potential • Symptoms are an indication of a greater health imbalance; it is the root cause of symptoms that should be addressed
Practice: As a general family physician, I treat acute and chronic disease, as well as focusing on disease prevention. My methods address factors that contribute to physical and emotional imbalance. Education is fundamental to my approach, and I work with patients to incorporate lifestyle changes to address their concerns. As part of your experience I may perform women’s annual health exams, routine blood work and additional diagnostic procedures to gather more information. I believe a patient’s personal goals are best achieved by developing individualized programs in the areas of nutrition, homeopathy, What is Biotherapeutic Drainage, herbal medicine, hydrotherapy and lifestyle modification.
Dr. Paroo has served on the executive board of the Washington Association of Naturopathic Physicians.
