What is Lifestyle Medicine? 

Lifestyle medicine is a medical approach that emphasizes the prevention, management, and reversal of chronic diseases by focusing on key lifestyle factors. This includes nutrition coaching, stress management, sleep improvement, and balancing daily activities to promote overall health. Rather than relying solely on medications, lifestyle medicine equips patients with the tools and knowledge to make lasting changes that improve physical, mental, and emotional well-being. 

Benefits of Lifestyle Medicine 

Lifestyle medicine benefits patients by addressing the root causes of health challenges. Patients often experience improved energy levels, better sleep, stress relief, and healthier eating habits. By introducing sustainable behavior changes, this approach helps manage existing conditions and reduces the risk of developing new ones. Additionally, lifestyle medicine enhances mental clarity, emotional wellness, and overall quality of life.

I enjoyed meeting Dr. Skura. I found her to be sympathetic and professional at the same time. In my experience (in 3 countries) a good doctor learns enough about each patient so they can judge when a problem is serious. I feel Dr. Skura fits this description.

Dr. Skura takes the time to really get to know her patients as a whole before treating them, which is very rare. You can tell she has a passion for helping others and therefore devoted her life to medicine, making her an outstanding medical professional!

I look for three things in my primary care doctor. The first is thoroughness, the second is being a good listener, and the third is he or she is a caring doctor. I have found [Dr. Skura] to have all three of these qualities. I’m happy to have found her and recommend her very highly!

- D.G.

The best physician I have ever had! She took aggressive action with my diabetes and I am doing considerably better ever since. She is very patient and listens to my questions and concerns. She explains things in detail and involves me in decision-making. I have never felt rushed during my visits with her!
