IBS and GI Symptoms
“All disease begins in the gut.” – Hippocrates
Dr. Joe has a decade of success helping patients around the world with chronic GI issues to feel better. One reason is that his patients are given comprehensive recommendations including dietary and lifestyle modifications, nutritional support, nutraceuticals, herbal treatments, gut support, and prescriptions.
Optimizing gut health does much more than just resolving common GI symptoms. Using the right tools to improve gut health often helps many other areas of the body work better. This is why Dr. Joe's GI patients commonly report better skin, less anxiety and improved concentration and mood. Because so many areas of the body can be improved by optimizing the gut, this is a major focus of our practice.

Let’s Get Started
A doctor who cares about science
Working as an independent physician gives me time to study and keep learning new ways to help my patients. I’m proud to have contributed to our understanding of the gut–thyroid axis in a paper published in 2022.
I graduated from Tulane University School of Medicine and School of Public Health in 2011 and completed my Family Practice training in 2014. I treat many conditions, with particular expertise in GI health and mold and heavy-metal toxicity. When I’m not with patients, you’ll find me playing with my three kids, exercising, meditating, or playing the drums.
