Timothy Hipskind, M.D. and his team at Clara Wellness Center of Glen Carbon reject the current dismal view that aging is just a natural process of diminished functioning kept in time with the clock that just keeps ticking. Conventional medicine has always held the belief that aging is inevitable and the progressive deterioration that follows us into the adult years cannot be altered.

Aging has more to do with a lifetime of unenlightened choices. Our only choices at this point is to rely on mainstream medicine and its downstream, rescue care approaches which employ an expensive examination of symptoms and signs and result usually in a high dollar prescription of toxicity in the form of a pill. This approach is considered standard of care. How well is it working? Look around you, the answer lies among us.

I do not believe that heart disease, dementia, cancer are part of natural aging. 90% of heart disease and 75% of cancer are preventable. All of these are related to unenlightened choices. The downward spiral of physical and mental degeneration that we’ve all come to accept is becoming increasingly recognized as somewhat controllable and preventable through what I term upstream medical management. Enlightenment if you will. We here at The Clara will enlighten you as to the choices you need to make based on the last 50 years of evidence based medical research to attain a state of mental, physical and spiritual clarity that will transform your future.

I believe that your best days are ahead of you, no matter where you find yourself today. By balancing science and art, evidence and belief, imagination and logic, a new healthful, revitalized you is waiting to be unveiled. You can’t go back and start your life over, however, I believe you can start today to make a new life that you’ve been dreaming about and thought never possible.

Philosophy at Clara Wellness Center

Bioidentical Hormone replacement therapy is probably the most misunderstood and misrepresented concept seen by health care providers. Our goal at The Clara is to demystify hormones with clear cut evidence based medical research. If you want to live a more youthful, vibrant, active lifestyle, HRT is not an option, it’s a necessity.
