What does Holistic ICON do?
Chronic disease, like diabetes or hypertension, is a growing problem. 67% of the country has one chronic disease or the other. Medical care is about managing these diseases. So where does a patient who does not want to live with chronic disease go? This is the business we are in. We work with our patients to address the real cause of their diseases. We do this by understanding their health journey. We do very specialized testing that reveals the true nature of their disease process.
Patients need a plan that is practical and will work for them. Our goal is to help them understand their own needs and adapt new ways of living to help them thrive.

Get to Know Dr. Nisha Chellam
Dr. Chellam is a “recovering physician”. What does that mean? Medical school is about learning diseases and managing to slow the progress. What do patients want? Patients want to resolve their disease. A recovered physician moves from medications as the only option to treating disease. Instead, is there a way we can rebuild health and resolve the disease?
Dr. Chellam struggled for years with Migraines and Hashimotos. She was able to resolve these by learning and applying Functional medicine. And that is what she practices now. She is board certified in Internal Medicine and Board certified in Integrative and Holistic Medicine. When there is so much information, the goal of the practice is to simplify this information. The power of nutrition is best when we personalize it. Lifestyle changes are tough. How do we systematize it? We do testing that helps identify your individual meed and optimize your health.
