Functional Medicine
Functional Medicine addresses chronic illness by identifying root causes through genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Our approach integrates nutritional biochemistry, metabolic medicine, and lifestyle coaching to restore balance and optimize health. Patients receive personalized treatment plans tailored to their unique biochemical needs, focusing on sustainable outcomes rather than symptom management.
Gluten Sensitivity
We specialize in diagnosing and managing gluten sensitivity through advanced biomarker testing and personalized dietary plans. Our team addresses gut health, immune responses, and systemic effects of gluten intolerance to alleviate symptoms and prevent long-term complications. Treatment includes nutritional guidance and elimination diets tailored to individual needs.
Detoxification
Our detoxification programs target environmental and metabolic toxins using personalized protocols to enhance the body's natural elimination processes. We address symptoms like fatigue and headaches caused by toxin buildup, incorporating nutritional support and lifestyle adjustments to improve energy levels and overall health.

Report
Dr. Storch and his team helped me to achieve my weight goals with knowledge, professionalism, and excellent patient care. My medical history includes a strong family history of Diabetes and Obesity. I have struggled with my weight for years. Given my medical background, I approached Dr. Storch with a high degree of skepticism (I had pursued various traditional diets and was a long-term member of Weight Watchers).
I thought I was educated and knew it all. Dr. Storch and his team worked with me (patiently tolerating my constant questioning of their approach). At times, their recommendations were not consistent with what I assumed was weight loss dogma. But I was very wrong. Once committed to their program - I had consistent, efficient weight loss. I am already six months past the active diet period and am successfully maintaining my weight loss. The care I received was exemplary. I am grateful for their knowledge/expertise and their devotion to caring for the complete patient.

Dr. Storch literally saved my life with his extensive analysis and attentiveness when I suffered a bad reaction to medicine. The seasoned Medical staff at Sloan Kettering had to defer to his vast knowledge of nutrition and chemical interactions because he displayed such deep understanding of total body and chemical functions, and was not limited to any medical discipline. I was floundering and they were puzzlelled until Dr. Storch thought outside the box and checked for lab results that were outside of the norm and obvious.
His staff helped to provide me with daily prescriptions and assisted me to implement advice tailored to return me to strength and vibrancy. The Dr.s at Sloan Lettering are astonished at his efforts and my return to health and vitality. It was the greatest blessing that Dr. Storch took me on even though I seemed hopeless and restored my functionality. His extensive experience and caring is second to none.
