Philosophy of Care
Utilization of the right tool to solve the problem brings the best outcome. A pill is not an answer to all ills, surgery doesn’t cure all problems, nutrition and exercise can’t reverse all diseases. We are fortunate to live in times when we can adapt the best practices from western and eastern medicine. My training in western medicine helps me understand the practices of unconventional medicine objectively. After careful analysis of both schools of thought, I have designed a structured comprehensive therapeutic lifestyle program that assimilates the most effective techniques from western and eastern medicine minimizing the side effects. For each individual. I strive to determine how and why illnesses occur and restore health by addressing the root causes optimally.
Using my blueprint, including the emerging trends in genetics, nutrigenomics, and anti-aging, my patients harness simple self-care practices and develop new habits. My approach addresses the 5 foundational pillars needed to resolve underlying stressors leading to the breakdown of health: detoxification, nutrition, fitness, restoration of balance for the autonomic nervous, and endocrine systems.
I am a family physician who tried to cure myself for a few years, as I was suffering from menopausal symptoms, fatigue, and change in my body weight and composition. Even though I had access to multiple resources, it was hard to find a cure. Fortunately, I found this in Heal n Cure with Dr. Meena Malhotra. The practice is very well organized, focuses on patients’ needs, and very cost-effective in the long run. I went from 146 lbs to 138 lbs in 2 short months and feel great.

My journey to weight loss and good health began with my first visit to Heal n Cure. Dr. Meena’s program changed my eating habits and made them closer to nature. Eating Began an adventure into finding new ways to live without flour and dairy. I have lost 72 lbs and feel and look wonderful. My own son started the program and has lost over 50 lbs. Remember, Dr. Malhotra said everything begins in your gut!

My son and I have suffered from auto-immune issues for several years, and although I have seen a lot of improvement from other specialists, Dr. Meena is a hormone balancing expert. She is able to synthesize information from complex cases and understand the root cause of the illness. I also had my 16-year-old son come in to see her and in about 6 weeks, she made quite a significant improvement in my son’s overall health through dietary changes, supplements, and a new way of looking at his health issues. Highly recommended.

Although very much still a work in progress, I’m extremely pleased and excited by the steady decrease in weight and increase in energy and good health. This is all attributable to dr Malhotra’s program as implemented by her and her very capable staff. They are knowledgeable and attentive to patients’ needs.

I had a myriad of health issues, several of which I was unaware of until I was tested by Dr. Malhortra. It seemed daunting at first that I could find a way to ameliorate these issues. I was told by Dr. Malhotra that she could point me in the right direction but I had to do the work, and work I did. In the last 6-7 weeks, I started to feel amazingly better for the first time in a few years: clear thinking, much less fatigue, and no more brain fog, no more depression, and anxiety, more energy, etc. but esp more hope that I could find my way out of the abyss I had been in for a very long time. I am grateful to Dr. Malhorta and her entire team for helping me to focus and heal. I could not have done this by myself as I had tried to do that for years.

5 foundation pillars to reclaim your health.
Nutrition: Nutrition is core to maintain good health. As you know it can vary from keto to vegan, but what kind is best for you depends upon the blueprint of your health. The macro and micronutrient distribution in the diet is based upon your health goals.
Your health goals may evolve as you move from a state of disease towards health. For example, getting rid of medication for chronic disease to lose fat to build muscle, etc.
Nutraceuticals: Nutraceuticals is a broad umbrella term used to describe any product derived from food sources with extra health benefits and the basic nutritional value found in foods. Lack of FDA regulation leaves the consumer at a loss. Numerous private certifications make decision-making even more complicated. I believe the best nutraceuticals are ones that are customized for you ( for example Vital Dose )based upon the blueprint of your health.
Bioidentical Hormones: Optimal hormonal balance is crucial for good health. No wonder most of us enjoy robust health in our 20s. But the health declines as the toxicity increases and optimal hormonal balance gets distorted. Restoring the favorable hormonal balance after detoxification helps us move towards health from the state of disease.
Autonomic Nervous System: This is the part of the nervous system which controls our viscera, for example, heartbeat, breathing, gut activity, elimination, excretion, detoxification, etc. Parasympathetic and sympathetic are two parts of this complex system. Even though they need to be balanced, most of us are in sympathetic overdrive. Sluggish parasympathetic drive makes rest and digestion difficult. Direct current to reset electrical imbalance helps restore the sympathetic and parasympathetic balance.
Education: We are overloaded with information but lacking knowledge and directions. The key to maintaining good health is to master the tools you need in case of a slip-off. Big or small there is no stupid question when it comes to your health. We believe a close partnership with your health care team is crucial for sustainable positive health outcomes.
