Health Videos, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

Health Videos, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

If you visit my website, you’ll see that my motto is “Enjoy Healing.” After all, the truth is that life is hard enough, and health issues are scary enough, without physicians piling on layers of fear and negativity to the healing process.

I won’t do that, because to me healing is all about feeling better and better and better. It is a powerful forward moving process that should be uplifting. So, if lately your health care routines leave you feeling …

Health Videos, Healthy Mindframe, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD
