Understanding why your body is not functioning properly – looking for root causes that underlie illness - is the key to reversing all disease states. Dr. Rubin has a deep understanding of both conventional and functional medicine options for Men’s Health concerns.
Men's Health encompasses not just physical wellness, but everything that is specific to a man’s experience of health and wellness. The scope of Men’s Health includes a wide range of physical, mental, and emotional well-being aspects that are specific to men, including hormone balance, sexual health and conditions like heart disease and prostate cancer.
It also involves managing day-to-day health issues from chronic disease management to erectile dysfunction and fertility concerns. We have found that addressing men's particular health concerns leads to better overall health outcomes for men.
One of the most invaluable aspects in the practice of Men’s Health – especially from Dr. Rubin’s functional medicine perspective - is our patient-centric approach where everything we do is centered around who you are as a man.

Dr. Rubin also cooperates and works closely with specialist physicians and surgeons when your care requires an advanced level of intervention.
Central to the practice of functional medicine is the awareness that the same illness can result from many different causes and the causes will likely vary among individual men. While many of the health concerns are the same, each man is so very different and requires a specialized approach.
That is why Dr. Rubin begins with a functional evaluation of each man’s body and health over the lifespan. This initial evaluation includes:
The first step usually involves a series of testing – blood tests, urine tests, etc. These tests will help Dr. Rubin understand how your body is functioning and your overall state of health. Laboratory facilities are conveniently available onsite.
As he discusses the results of the blood work with you and reviews your personal and family medical history, he will also ask you questions regarding your:
