As a physician, I have always thought that healing involves more than addressing symptoms—it demands recognizing and supporting the body’s natural processes and requirements. This philosophy inspired me to develop Vis, a nutritional formula designed to strengthen the body’s innate capacity to heal, particularly during the critical period around surgery.

Growing up on a ranch in Wyoming, I saw firsthand the power of nutrition and natural remedies. Later, my own health struggles, including heart issues and complications during pregnancy, led me to holistic approaches that transformed my well-being when conventional medicine couldn’t. These experiences deepened my conviction that nutrition plays a pivotal role in healing and sparked my commitment to becoming a physician.

Vis emerged from a deeply personal experience when a close relative faced a grueling recovery after emergency open-heart surgery. Witnessing her physical and emotional challenges and repeated setbacks drove me to seek a better way to support patients through the surgical stress response. I wanted to find a solution that could ease recovery and improve health outcomes for a wide variety of non-emergency surgical procedures.

Drawing on my background in naturopathic medicine and nutrigenomics, I developed Vis to work at the cellular level, providing targeted nutrition to support the body’s healing. The formulation addresses the specific metabolic needs of surgical patients, empowering them to overcome stress and emerge stronger. 

I chose the name 'Vis' because it means 'power' in Latin, and embodies the naturopathic principle, Vis Medicatrix Naturae, which signifies the body’s innate ability to heal itself. My hope is that Vis can bring comfort and confidence to patients, empowering them to take proactive steps toward a smoother, stronger recovery.

Thank you for letting Vis be part of your healing journey. Together, we can redefine surgical recovery through the power of nourishment.
