Who we treat:
Dr LaCava treats both adults and children. Adult patients make up about 2/3 of Dr. LaCava's practice. His practice focuses on defining and treating the underlying cause of disease. His patients come from Worcester, Boston, Metrowest and all over Massachusetts and New England. His treatments might involve diet, environmental and lifestyle changes, vitamin, mineral and herbal supplements and detoxification programs.
Dr. LaCava does not holistically treat the person who is acutely ill, has significant, drug-dependent psychiatric illness, or has end-of-life states, such as very old age or terminal illness. Consequently he does not treat HIV or cancer, although he does provide complementary integrative care for cancer patients. Moreover, for his holistic and alternative treatments to be effective, he asks that patients not be wheel-chair or bed-bound and be able to engage in active aerobic exercise. He tries not to use antipathic drug therapy, but prefers more natural bio-identical agents or physiological therapies. If your case is drug dependent, you may call the office to determine if your case is appropriate for Dr. LaCava's care.
