Meet the Staff

Dr. Lucas is my father and my first mentor. He is the reason I chose to help the very sick. I once asked my father why he continued to attend seminars and learn, as skilled as he already was. His answer became a major driving force in my life: “It’s not the eight out of ten patients that you help that keep you from sleeping at night, it’s the two out of ten that you don’t help”. My dad is universally beloved by patients and brings with him a major skill: He uses a technique that addresses the stress caused by emotional trauma, which negatively impacts patients’ lives in a multitude of ways. In my experience, almost every single patient who suffers from severe long term pain and illness also suffers from PTSD. Dr. Lucas’s work is invaluable in this field.

Dr. Andrew is my associate doctor. I wanted to hire an associate doctor for many years, but secretly did not think the right person existed. One day, by pure chance, Dr. Andrew’s path crossed mine. It seemed that we were supposed to meet. I was uncertain about how he would handle the stress of working with patients in pain every day, but he has risen to the occasion in every way that matters. I have often said that Dr. Andrew is my “in case I am hit by a bus” plan. For years, I felt pressured by being the only doctor in the world understanding my system and protocols. What if something were to happen to me? Would my work continue? Today, I can comfortably say that yes, my work will continue, due to this remarkable and talented young doctor.
