We seek to have honest discussion about current conventional practices along with well researched evidenced based complementary approaches which create the optimal environment for safe, healthy, childhood development with minimal prescription medications. We seek to understand each child's unique social, psychological, and physiological makeup to create an atmosphere which SHINES on health and reveals disease while understanding the balance to get there.

SHINE is growing with our approach to balance of traditional and alternative approaches and our SHINE STANDARD is what sets us apart from other conventional and natural healthcare operations. Our STANDARD is unique and I cannot put my finger on all of it. We have done an amazing job in social media without the exorbitant cost of search engine optimization companies that would have put my small business in the red had I used one of them and forging long lasting relationships with important networks and we have built trust in the community which is seen by the numerous word of mouth recommendations from new patients as well as the comments made from many of our established patients to the amazing job that our team has done to invest time and energy into appreciating that the experience in the office itself is critical to the care of the patient.
We have a lot of moving parts at SHINE but we have done a great job refining our process and being open to change. Change is going to happen and we want it to happen.
We all at times feel a little vulnerable with change because it makes us all a little incompetent but incompetence is good because it forces you to learn.
We love our families because we have some who know what they want and they have done their research about our practice, their child’s condition, and they want honest answers. There was a time in medicine that us physicians had all the knowledge from our training and our textbooks that were behind our desk but now that material is open sourced on the internet and is available to the masses. The patient may not be a physician but some will know what questions to ask or ask questions that will help satisfy their curiosity. The ability to partner with the patient and family in the medical decision is critical in outpatient medicine and if we do not appreciate this fact, we will lose our patients trust. I think that is the number one reason I see SHINE grow exponentially is because the family has lost trust in the medical system. We have done a poor job of validating the patient’s concern or we have sent them in tangents without their health improving. There are some physicians who are changing the trajectory of a patient’s health but for many, the approach is of being a bystander or an air traffic controller instead of the pilot of the patient’s health.
I think we have done a phenomenal job of being in the cockpit and understanding the controls and signals to control the health of our patients and we look forward to flying to new levels with our patients at SHINE. We want to continue to be a beacon of light to the broken and unbroken pediatric lives in the DFW area.
