The Bristlecone Medical
group
Heal | Grow | Thrive
Let's be honest, we're all tired of binary, siloed thinking in healthcare. The vertical model - experts persuading misinformed patients - is outdated. Especially for educated people like you who are savvy about personal optimization.
You'll love our collaborative, horizontal care - it's a partnership between you & your care-team. Our clinicians embrace different opinions and welcome fresh perspectives.
We Live in Your Solution!
Our team is flexible, agile & committed to your success. The goal is whole-person transformation that you'll be insanely proud to share with your friends & family.
We've been lucky enough to work with the most amazing people; together we live in the solution & refuse to look back.
Smart ~ Sophisticated ~ Authentic
Personalized Medicine for those who prefer prevention not reaction.
Lots of moving parts? No, problem!
We see the Body as a system; WHEN one gear sticks,the remaining gears must adapt. eventually the entire system starts compensating.
And so unfolds the narrative of chronic disease.
gut instinct says "oil the gear" but systems biology says,
Read the manual.
Because many conditions are invisible, we are committed to healing the unseen.

Matt
The doctors and staff led by the talented Dr. Gibas at Bristlecone Medical have greatly enhanced my life. Their support and knowledge of my health needs has helped regulate my digestive system, cut my cholesterol in half, decreased my heart disease risk and helped with weight loss. They examined my family health history, did genetic testing and provided much more detailed testing than I have ever received through traditional medicine. This approach looked at the cause of my symptoms and provided solutions for a healthier life. I am so grateful for the talented team at Bristlecone!
