MEDICAL WELLNESS CENTER
About Our Practice
Capstone Medical Wellness Center opened its doors in January 2001 in downtown Lebanon PA. We made the transition to Palmyra PA in December 2010. This shift to a larger, more modern facility allowed us to move one step closer to our goal of a comprehensive wellness center that will support our philosophy at Capstone Medical Wellness Center . Physician Dr. Jeffrey Backenstoes and the staff at Capstone Medical Wellness Center are dedicated to helping each patient reach their most optimal health. We offer a range of internal medicine and alternative medicine services and options to achieve that goal. From traditional medicine treatment to alternative options we will customize a plan for each patient we treat.
Philosophy
At Capstone Medical Wellness Center , We do not treat diseases. We treat people inflicted with disease. We believe each patient is unique and therefore requires a treatment plan that is right for them, not “cookie-cutter” medicine. We also believe every patient needs to be approached as a whole person, thereby taking into account how all systems work together and how each treatment could impact another body system. We also believe prevention is still the best solution. Many chronic illnesses are a result of poor lifestyle choices. We strive to educate each patient on how current diseases can be managed with the least amount of medication and how additional problems can be avoided through preventative treatment. Through education about diet, exercise and nutritional supplementation, our goal is to optimize the health of each of our patients.
