The approach

A new standard of care

We honor your unique physiology and lifestyle. Conservative options come first, invasive procedures last, and every plan is built around the person, not the diagnosis.

Root cause

We look beyond symptoms to identify and treat the underlying imbalances in your body.

Whole person

Nutrition, movement and mental well-being, integrated for comprehensive healing.

Individualized

No protocols off the shelf. Your plan is tailored to your physiology and your goals.

Signature programs

Two systems you won’t find anywhere else

Developed by Dr. Bhakta over two decades of clinical practice, these programs carry patients past “pain-free” to how they want to move, perform and age.

The clinic

Two decades of redefining the patient experience

Arbor Creek began as a small, passionate practice and grew into a comprehensive wellness center. Continuous education and clinical innovation keep our care at the forefront of evidence-based and holistic medicine.

Philosophy

We reject the one-size-fits-all approach. You are an active participant in your care, not just a recipient of it. Health is the cornerstone of experience, and good health is a form of wealth. Discipline should expand your capacity to live, not imprison you in the pursuit of perfect health.

Our promise

You are our highest priority. We listen, we take your experience seriously, and you will never be treated as just another appointment on the schedule.

Every plan is personal. Here is what that has meant to some of the people we care for.

Before starting my sessions with Amy, I thought I knew what it meant to live a healthy lifestyle—but she opened my eyes to a whole new level of wellness.
