W-E Primary Care and Acupuncture

More than 25 years MD doctoring, inspired to include Eastern Medical techniques of healthcare including acupuncture.

As the days stay short and the air turns cold, many of us feel that familiar "winter slump"—a combination of low energy, lingering brain fog, and a dip in mood. While it’s tempting to reach for extra caffeine or sugary comfort foods, the real solution lies in functional nutrition.

At W-E Primary Care and Acupuncture, our Healthy Cooking Workshops bridge the gap between two powerful worlds:

Western Science: We focus on nutrient density, specifically looking for foods rich in Omega-3s, Vitamin D, and B vitamins that support neurological health and stable blood sugar.

Eastern Food-as-Medicine: We utilize the "energetics" of food. In the winter, your body needs warming, moving ingredients to counteract the cold, stagnant environment. This means using spices that stoke your "internal fire" and promote healthy circulation.

By learning to prep meals that align with the season, you aren't just eating; you’re medicating your body with high-quality fuel designed to boost your vitality. From heart-warming stews to immune-boosting broths, we show you how to make "healthy" taste like "home." What seasonal ingredient (like ginger or citrus) are you cooking with this week?

When it comes to your health, the best offense is a strong defense. If you’ve made a resolution to stay healthy in 2026, preventive care is the foundation upon which everything else is built.

In the traditional medical model, many people wait until they feel "off" to see a doctor. But at W-E Primary Care and Acupuncture, we prioritize proactive screenings—the essential labs and exams designed to catch potential issues early, often long before symptoms even appear.

Why Proactive Care is a Game-Changer:

Early Detection: Identifying trends in blood pressure, cholesterol, or blood sugar now allows for simple lifestyle adjustments rather than intensive medical interventions later.

Personalized Benchmarks: Your annual physical isn't just a checklist; it’s a data-driven discussion that establishes your "normal," making it easier to spot even the smallest changes in the future.

Whole-Body Connection: By blending Western diagnostics with Eastern wellness assessments, we look at how your physical markers align with your energy levels, sleep quality, and stress.

Your 2026 check-up is more than just an appointment; it’s a strategy session for your longevity. Don't leave your health to chance—ensure your foundation is solid.

Call us today to ensure your 2026 proactive screening is on the calendar!

In a world of rushed appointments and fragmented care, Dr. Victoria Menold offers a different path. As a Board-Certified Family Physician and a Certified Medical Acupuncturist, she brings a rare and powerful perspective to primary care—one that bridges the clinical precision of Western medicine with the restorative wisdom of Eastern healing.

Why does this "Integrated" approach matter for your health?

Bridging the Gap: Dr. Menold doesn't just treat symptoms; she looks at how your environment, lifestyle, and internal balance intersect.

Comprehensive Tools: Whether you need evidence-based chronic disease management or a drug-free way to manage stress and pain through acupuncture, she has the tools to help.

Personalized Blueprints: Because she operates within the Direct Primary Care (DPC) model, Dr. Menold has the time to truly listen. She creates highly individualized plans focused on your long-term success rather than quick fixes.

When you work with Dr. Menold, you aren't just a patient on a schedule; you are a partner in a journey toward vibrant, whole-body wellness. Experience healthcare that treats the person, not just the chart.

When the New Year kicks off, it’s tempting to dive into intense, hour-long workouts. But for most of us, that's a fast track to burnout or injury. Instead of going from zero to sixty, we encourage a more sustainable, holistic approach: Micro-Movement.

Micro-movements are brief, intentional bursts of activity that fit seamlessly into your existing day. They aren't meant to leave you breathless; they are meant to keep your joints lubricated, your blood flowing, and your metabolism active.

Why Micro-Movement Works:

Better Digestion: A simple 10-minute walk after lunch can significantly help regulate blood sugar levels.

Reduced Stiffness: A 5-minute stretch session between meetings counteracts the "desk slouch" and reduces neck and back tension.

Mental Clarity: Movement triggers a small release of endorphins, clearing the "brain fog" that often sets in during the afternoon.

Try one of these today:

Take the stairs instead of the elevator for just two floors.

Do three minutes of calf raises while your coffee brews.

Stretch your hip flexors while you're on a phone call.

The best exercise is the one that actually happens. By lowering the barrier to entry, you build a foundation of consistency that lasts long after the January rush fades.

The holidays may be over, but the "hangover" of stress—financial pressure, social fatigue, and a frantic schedule—often lingers well into January. If you’ve started the New Year feeling frayed instead of refreshed, Acupuncture can serve as a powerful, natural reset button for your entire system.

In our integrated practice, we use acupuncture to help you transition out of "survival mode" and into a state of calm productivity by:

Regulating the Nervous System: Acupuncture helps shift your body from the "fight or flight" sympathetic state into the "rest and digest" parasympathetic state.

Targeting Tension Headaches: By improving blood flow and releasing muscular trigger points, it addresses the physical manifestations of mental stress.

Soothing Lingering Anxiety: Treatment helps balance cortisol levels and promotes the release of endorphins, your body's natural mood lifters.

Restoring Inner Balance: From a traditional perspective, it clears blockages in your Qi (energy), allowing you to feel more centered and emotionally resilient.

Don’t let last month's stress dictate your momentum for the rest of the year. Book your acupuncture session now to clear the mental clutter and start 2026 with a sense of peace and clarity!

Think of your Direct Primary Care (DPC) membership like a gym for your healthcare—but instead of just paying for access to the equipment, you get a dedicated, expert coach who is personally invested in your results.

In the traditional system, you only "use the gym" when something is broken. At W-E Primary Care and Acupuncture, your membership provides the "invisible" benefits that keep you from breaking in the first place:

Direct Access: Skip the call center. Direct texting and emailing with your doctor mean your questions get answered in real-time.

Wholesale Lab Pricing: We bypass insurance markups, passing the direct savings on to you—often saving members hundreds on routine bloodwork.

A Living Health History: You aren’t just a chart number. Because we have the time for extended visits, your doctor truly knows your story, your stressors, and your long-term goals.

Integrated Tools: Access to both Western medical diagnostics and the restorative benefits of medical acupuncture under one roof.

This isn't just a "sick care" plan; it’s an investment in your future self. By removing the friction of co-pays and long wait times, we make it easy to prioritize your wellness every single day.

What is one health goal you’ve been putting off because you didn't have the time to discuss it with a doctor? Let's start building that plan today!

Winter is in full swing, and between the drop in temperature and the seasonal bugs going around, your immune system is working overtime! At W-E Primary Care and Acupuncture, we don't just wait for you to get sick; we use a unique "double-defense" approach to fortify your health from every angle.

By blending the best of both medical worlds, we help you build a resilient foundation:

The Western Perspective: We focus on the physiological essentials. This includes monitoring Vitamin D levels (which often plummet in the winter), ensuring your preventive screenings are up to date, and using evidence-based diagnostics to catch imbalances before they become illnesses.

The Eastern Perspective: We look at your "Wei Qi"—the protective energy that circulates just beneath the skin to ward off external "pathogens." We strengthen this shield through acupuncture and the use of warming, tonifying foods like ginger, cinnamon, and astragalus to keep your internal "fire" burning bright.

This integrated strategy means you aren't just surviving the winter—you’re thriving through it with a balanced, high-functioning immune system. 🍵
Let’s keep your defenses high all season long!

What is your go-to "feel better" ritual when you feel a cold coming on? Is it a specific soup, a favorite tea, or maybe an extra hour of sleep? Share your secrets below!

January often brings a "sticker shock" moment in healthcare: the annual deductible reset. If you are facing thousands of dollars in out-of-pocket costs before your insurance kicks in—or if high co-pays make you hesitate to call your doctor—it’s time for a smarter approach.

With our Direct Primary Care (DPC) model, we remove the financial barriers between you and your physician. Instead of "pay-per-visit" billing that adds up quickly, you pay a simple, transparent monthly fee for:

Nearly Unlimited Access: Same-day or next-day appointments and direct communication without per-visit charges.

Wholesale Pricing: Deep discounts on labs and imaging that bypass expensive hospital markups.

Preventative Focus: More time with your doctor to catch issues early, potentially saving you from a costly ER visit later.

The Challenge: Take a moment to calculate how much you spent on co-pays, office fees, and "met deductible" costs last year. When you add up those expenses—plus the value of your time spent waiting—could a DPC membership actually save you money while providing better care?

Don't let a high deductible dictate your health. Switch to a model that prioritizes your wellness over insurance codes.
