Specialize in: Functional Neurology/HBOT/Erchonia Laser/QEEG Brain Mapping/BTracksS/PEMA | Regenerative&Stem Cell Therapy/ | IV/Ozone/EBOO/IASIS/HeartMath/PNOE/Peptides/BHRT/RGCC/SOT My Story:
As an Emergency Physician, I could quickly treat patients with acute illnesses — but for chronic conditions, I would send them back to their primary care provider. Later, as a primary care physician, I saw firsthand how many people were struggling with long-term, complex health issues. I began searching for answers beyond simply managing symptoms. Through Functional Medicine, I found an approach that seeks to uncover and address the root causes of disease. By identifying the underlying imbalances driving chronic illness, I could not only help patients feel better — I could also prevent future suffering. Who I Am:
I am a Board-Certified Family Medicine Physician and Functional Medicine Provider with over 20 years of clinical experience. My training includes:

Residencies: Family Medicine (Miami, FL) and Emergency Medicine (The Netherlands)
Medical School: Poznan University of Medical Sciences, Poland
Experience: Emergency departments, urgent care centers, primary care practices, and mental health facilities in the USA, England, The Netherlands, Aruba, and Poland
Fellowship: Integrative Psychiatry
Functional Medicine Training: Institute for Functional Medicine and Kalish Institute

I hold advanced certifications in:

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) / Evexias Pellet Therapy
Ozone Therapy / EBOO / UVBI
Stem Cell & Regenerative Cell Therapy
Cellenis PRP Stem & Peptide Therapy
IV Hydration / Chelation
Metabolic Code Assessment
Walsh Protocol for Mental Health
In-Body Bioimpedance & PNOE Metabolic Assessment
Aesthetic Procedures (Hair, Exosome Injections, Facial)
RGCC Testing & Supportive Oligonucleotide Therapy (SOT) for cancer support and chronic infections including, Lyme bacteria, tick-borne co-infections Babesiosis/Bartonella, other co-infections such as Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV), Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Varicella, and more. I am fluent in Polish, Dutch, Papiamento, and Spanish and draw on my diverse cultural background to provide personalized, inclusive, and compassionate care. My Services & Approach:
I help patients find lasting relief from chronic mental and physical health conditions such as:

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Diabetes & Weight Management
Skin Conditions (Eczema, Allergies)
Thyroid Disorders
Fibromyalgia
Cancer Remission Support
Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, Insomnia
PMS, PMDD, and Hormonal Imbalances

Using a comprehensive evaluation that includes advanced lab testing and clinical insight, I assess:

Nutrient deficiencies
Hormonal imbalances
Inflammation & stress response
Food sensitivities & potential allergens
Toxin exposure
Gut health
Genetic predisposition

From there, I design a personalized, integrative care plan that may include diet and lifestyle changes, targeted nutraceuticals, and advanced regenerative treatments. Integrative Wellness:
At Aven Clinic, we practice both Integrative and Functional Medicine. Integrative Medicine combines conventional and alternative therapies for the best outcomes. Functional Medicine asks why illness develops and addresses the root cause. We test, not guess, and look at the body as a whole — mind, body, and lifestyle. We also collaborate with your primary care physician or other specialists to ensure continuity of care. Words of Advice:
Your health is your greatest investment. spends more on healthcare than any other high-income nation yet has some of the poorest health outcomes. That’s because our system often manages disease rather than preventing it. Take an active role in your wellness. Be your own health advocate. Functional Medicine is a partnership — I guide you, but you must participate fully in your healing through nutrition, lifestyle, and stress management. Success Stories:
One of my most memorable cases involved a patient with severe arthritis, back pain, and depression. She was on multiple medications and limited to one hour of daily activity. Six months after starting my protocol, her pain decreased by 80%, her mood lifted, and she could ride her bike again. With improved brain health and reduced pain, she no longer needed most of her medications. Your Role & Investment:
Functional Medicine is not a quick fix. It’s a process that requires commitment. Because insurance does not cover most Functional Medicine services, we are a cash-based practice — allowing us to create treatment plans based on your needs, not insurance limitations. We accept FSA/HSA and CareCredit. What We Offer:

Your gut is more than digestion, it’s deeply connected to your immune system, hormones, energy levels, and even your mood.

A GI-MAP stool test uses advanced DNA-based technology to give a detailed look at what’s happening inside your gut, helping identify imbalances that routine tests often miss.

When we understand why symptoms like bloating, fatigue, skin issues, or stubborn inflammation are happening, we can create a more precise, personalized plan instead of guessing.

Curious if a GI-MAP test is right for you?

Peptides are gaining attention in functional medicine for their ability to communicate with the body at a cellular level.
BPC-157 is one of the most researched peptides for supporting the body’s natural repair processes, especially when it comes to gut health, inflammation, and recovery. Rather than masking symptoms, peptides work by supporting how your body heals itself.
