KATHERINE LANTSMAN, MD

Advisory Board Member
Scientific Medical Advisor

 

Dr. Lantsman is known and recognized for her ability to diagnose and to offer relief of symptoms from previously unidentified etiologies, and for treating the effects of chronic diseases, such as slow functioning thyroid, obesity, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, gastrointestinal disorders, arthritis, hormone imbalance, fatigue, mood disorders, tick born and parasitic infection, and various other maladies.

Personalized and humanized approach to prevention and healing of chronic illnesses is in the essence of her approach to medicine. “I want to treat people as I want to be treated myself,” states Dr. Lantsman.

Trained and Board Certified in Internal Medicine, Dr. Lantsman was fortunate to begin her studies in integrative medicine during residency, where she spent one of her clinical rotations at Beth Israel Center for Health and Healing in Manhattan, New York.

After having completed her residency at Lenox Hill Hospital, she joined a rapidly paced medical practice on Upper East Side of Manhattan. Dr. Lantsman determined that even minimal nutritional interventions made tremendous difference in her patients: the curing of life long illnesses, avoiding surgeries, and contributing to people’s immediate well-being and lowering fatigue. Subsequently, she created her own integrative medicine practice in Scarsdale, New York.

Having treated many patients infected with Lyme disease in her practice in Scarsdale, Dr. Lantsman participated in a training program with Dr. Richard Horowitz of Poughkeepsie, NY, which was sponsored by The International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society.

Dr. Lantsman empowers her patients to participate in the healing process, leaving no stone unturned in establishing the root cause of the presenting symptoms and working in partnership with her patients on their path to feeling well.

Dr. Lantsman practices what she preaches, keeping a gluten free and dairy free household, preparing for her family unprocessed whole foods low in carbohydrates and rich with vegetables, fruits, nuts, organic meats and wild fish. She enjoys running, weight training and hot yoga. As a student at a school of meditation, Clairvision.org, she starts her day with a meditation practice and uses dynamic awareness throughout the day.
