Practice Philosophy
Individualized Care
We take a comprehensive and holistic approach to understanding and exploring your personal story, how school, work, relationships and environment might affect your health or contribute to symptoms. We work with you to optimize achieving your health goals and how you feel, even if you just use us to conveniently treat the occasional illness.
Evidence-based
We practice evidence-based medicine. This means a commitment to accurate diagnosis and treatment based on accepted medical guidelines, antibiotic stewardship, an emphasis on preventive health, and an open-minded approach to advancements in medicine. Dr. Holt prides herself on life-long learning, and attends conferences annually for updates in medicine.
Body Positive
We accept and respect the inherent diversity of body shapes and sizes, and reject the idealizing or pathologizing of specific weights. We focus more on health enhancing practices such as joyful movement and eating for well-being, rather than the number on the scale. We will work with you to address your metabolic needs without stigma or fad diets that don't work.
Connected
We are well connected to the greater medical community in New Orleans and beyond. If you need specialist care, we will connect you with the right specialist for you. We make a big effort to get to know our local specialists, you can trust our recommendations, and we do our best to get you in to see them faster.
