LETTER FROM DR. KHURANA
Dear Parents and Guardians,
I am a Board certified Pediatrician who got interested in integrative medicine in last few years. I enjoy incorporating traditional western allopathic medicine with nutrition and integrative medicine in my practice so that I can offer them to you and your children. I have a special interest in children with ADD/ADHD, constipation, autoimmune disorders and gastrointestinal issues.
I have found that traditional medicine has answers to most acute diseases but when it comes to chronic diseases or mental health, it has its own limitation.

Important elements include:
- Promotion of health as a positive vitality, not just the absence of symptoms
- Respect for Biochemical Individuality
- A dynamic balance of internal and external factors
- View of health and illness as manifestations of web-like interconnections of physiological factors e.g. immunological dysfunction can provoke cardiovascular disease gastrointestinal dysfunction can cause hormonal and immunological disturbances
- Patient-centered medicine
