About Golden Center
Our Core Values Of Care
An Integrative Approach
Rooted in our focus on participatory patient care, it’s our mission to empower you with the knowledge and collective wisdom to create health yourself, no matter where you are right now.
Guided by our care team, you will embark on an integrative approach to your wellness, drawing from the best of both Conventional and Complementary medicine – including smart lifestyle modifications that will significantly improve your health and symptoms.
Dedicated Attention
You’ll receive dedicated attention from our care team.
During your exploratory consultation, you will meet with one of our team to chart the course for your package of care.
The subsequent treatment will be largely handled by our care team based on your individual needs, supervised by your physician, with you as an active participant.
Personalized Care
We’ll explore your situation holistically, uncovering mediators in your home, at work, and your mental state to arrive at a “lifestyle prescription” that puts you back on the road to health.
Innovative Treatments
All our staff are life-long learners, continuously upgrading their wisdom through sharing best practices and seeking out innovative, out-of-the-box ideas to help our patients achieve their health goals.
Root Cause Resolution
Also known as functional medicine, we seek to give you solutions, not more bandaids to cover up the symptoms (or treating side effects of drugs with even more drugs).
Co-Creating Health
We leverage group structures for patient education, peer-to-peer support, and accountability – with both your care team and your fellow patients rooting for your success.

The Philosophy That Drives Us
The philosophy that motivates everyone on our care teams at Golden Center is pretty simple:
“Do whatever it takes to effectively, comfortably, and safely treat your patient. Whatever that ‘whatever’ is.”
Dr. Golden founded Golden Center on the belief of participatory care where the patient is an instrumental partner in returning their body back to health (or keeping it healthy). And that it’s not about pre-determined ideas about a diagnosis without a full understanding of a patient’s situation.
That’s why the care team at Golden Center will leave no stone unturned when it comes to getting to the root cause of your problems. In fact, the medical community finally realizes that all disease starts in the gut, and without taking the gut into account, no autoimmunity and inflammation process can be addressed at the root cause.
We will integrate findings from the most recent research along with literally decades of knowledge that our team has accumulated. As it is stated in our Core Values of Care, you will always be first in line for innovative, integrative treatment methods that combine the best of Western and Eastern medicine.

“Dr. Golden Has Definitively Changed My Life For The Better…”
I’ve had stomach problems for as long as I can remember. No matter where I went, no one could seem to help me. However, after meeting with Dr. Golden I knew my problems had finally been solved. His comprehensive health assessment gave me the tools to finally improve my stomach health for good!
“The Team At Golden Center Are So Good, They’re Life-Changing…”
From the moment I walked through the doors at Golden Center, the entire team there was SO helpful in addressing and diagnosing me! From helping me schedule my initial appointments to answering any questions I had about my treatment, they always knew exactly what to say, and how to help.
