What is a Holistic Doctor?
Holistic medicine is an approach to healthcare that considers the whole person, including their physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being, rather than just focusing on symptoms or specific conditions. It emphasizes the interconnectivity of different aspects of a person’s health and recognizes that various factors, such as lifestyle, environment, and emotional state, can impact their overall health. Holistic doctor Nishath Hakim, MD, is an integrative medicine practitioner based in Royal Oak, MI who takes a ‘whole person’ approach to her patients’ health and well-being.
