Seeking Pediatrician That Embraces a Wholistic Approach

We use Pediatric Partners - specifically Dr. Blum and in my experiences he is very open to discussing different ideas and finding ways that both parents, child and doctor feel good about.

I have not personally gone to one yet due to insurance but Good luck, a holistic lifestyle is very refreshing!

So, I responded to another person several months ago that was asking about ciliac disease. It sounds like you may benefit from the same response...I'll copy and paste the whole thing here...

I messaged my best friend last night because she has Ciliac Disease, as does her children. This is her response copy and pasted....I really hope this helps you.

Kimberly: 80
Kimberly: %
Kimberly: of intollerance problems are a direct result of digestion problems
Kimberly: they have the enzyme therapy that saved my body when it could not tollerate anything
Kimberly: i never went for chiropractic, because I already had a chiropracter, but i highly reccomend it, it plays a KEY role in how the mechanics of our organs work

He is not a pediatrician and you will most likely pay out of pocket, but my friend was extremely sick and this therapy seirously helped her.

Hi A.,
She is not a pediatrician but we go to Dr. Cassandra McKarnan in Olathe, she's an OD. I do also know of a chiropractor that works with children at Your Wellness Connection 0 75th and Nieman in case you are having any specific things going on that require a chiropractor (sleep issues, food issues).

I'm not sure if this is what you were looking for, but, I know a chiropractor in Overland Park who has helped several people, from infants to adults with various digestive issues. His name is Dr. Casey Baker, his number is ###-###-####, I figure it is worth a shot...it couldn't hurt.

try Dr. Diehn at Integrative Medical her number is ###-###-#### they are off of 75th street and I-35 I believe. My husband sees her and I am not sure if she sees children but if not they can definately refer you. She is awesome.
