About Me

Dr. Aaron Erez, D.O.

Hello! I'm Dr. Aaron Erez, a physician with a deep-rooted passion for functional medicine and integrative medicine. I don't just treat symptoms. I strive to understand the root causes of your health issues and give you a personalized plan that empowers you to live life to its fullest.

My approach to healthcare is holistic, acknowledging the intricate interplay between systems within the human body and how the modern lifestyle can cause imbalances. I've developed expertise in managing a wide array of conditions - from chronic fatigue syndrome to gut issues, anxiety, autoimmune conditions, to hormone and metabolic issues.

My professional journey led me to the University of North Texas Health Science Center for my medical degree and then Samaritan Family Medicine Residency Program in Corvallis, Oregon. I'm certified by the Institute for Functional Medicine and am also board-certified by the American Board of Family Medicine.

When you invite me into your health journey, you're gaining a partner who sees and values you as an individual. I offer a fusion of professional, warm, and transformative healthcare, moving beyond traditional approaches to unlock your optimal health.

Your Journey to Optimal Health

1. Deep Dive Consultation

First, we explore your health journey in its entirety. Unlike traditional healthcare's rushed appointments, we take the time to listen to your story, understanding the context and patterns that influence your health. We will delve into your medical records, diet, lifestyle, stress levels, and past experiences to create a comprehensive health picture.

2. Detailed Investigation

Using the latest diagnostic tools and tests, we further our understanding of your health. This goes beyond basic check-ups in mainstream healthcare. We look for the root causes of your symptoms, rather than just treating the symptoms themselves. The tests will provide a baseline of information about how your body is currently functioning.

3. Personalized Plan Creation

Based on our in-depth exploration, we create a tailored health plan for you, addressing the root causes we've identified. We focus on optimizing your health rather than just managing diseases. This personalized approach is often missing in traditional healthcare but is a central pillar in functional medicine.

FAQs

Do you accept insurance directly?

While I don't directly accept insurance, I provide a superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for potential out-of-network coverage. This allows you to explore reimbursement options with your insurance provider.

What is a superbill, and how does it work?

A superbill is a detailed invoice that includes the services provided, associated costs, and diagnostic codes. You can submit this document to your insurance company for possible reimbursement, depending on your out-of-network coverage.
