Holistic MD Doctor Bergen County – One MD, Backed by a Full Team of Licensed Specialists
Many of the health practices in Bergen County are based on one individual who provides services ranging from nutrition to acupuncture to massage therapy under the same license. CITM does not. You are treated by a board-certified Holistic MD, and the therapies you receive are performed by individual professionals who are licensed in each specific modality, not by one generalist who performs every therapy.
Even the most experienced provider is not board-certified in internal medicine, licensed in acupuncture, licensed in physical therapy, and licensed in massage therapy. CITM provides you with a board-certified Holistic MD to oversee your plan, alongside a team of independent board-certified practitioners in their respective fields.
Holistic MD Doctor Bergen County: Meet Dr. Roman Finn
Your plan is guided by Roman E. Finn, M.D., Medical Director of the Center for Integrative and Traditional Medicine, who has been practicing traditional and alternative medicine since 1981.
Credentials:
- Board Certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine
- Diplomat of the American Academy of Pain Management
- Diplomat of the American Board of Disability Analysts
- Recognized in America’s Best Physicians 2021
- World Health Professional Of The Year 2005, Cambridge, England
Multidisciplinary Holistic Team Bergen County Patients Get Access To
Dr. Finn decides on your overall plan and sends you to a group of separately licensed specialists within the office, not to random outside providers:
- Scott David Lippe, M.D. – Gastroenterology (digestive conditions that are best evaluated at a specialist level of medical care)
- Simon Becker, D.P.M. – Podiatry, for foot and lower-limb conditions
- Katherine Ann Gearity, D.C. and Giuseppe Romano, D.C. – Structural and Musculoskeletal Support – Chiropractic care
- Hrishi Pathak, PT, DPT – Physical therapy, for rehabilitation and mobility
- Lev Vyshedsky, L.Ac – Licensed acupuncture
- Galina Khanukayeva, LMT – Licensed therapeutic massage

Each of these providers holds their own license in their field. Your holistic plan calls on this team as necessary, rather than each of them as isolated, independent experts, and is coordinated through one chart.
Holistic MD Bergen County: Is This Right for You?
- You want an acupuncturist administering acupuncture, not an individual who took it on board as an add-on service
- You prefer physical therapy or massage from someone who has a license in that profession
- You have a digestive problem that may require a doctor specializing in digestive disorders–a gastroenterologist–and not just general nutritional advice
- You want one MD overseeing your overall care plan, but not sacrificing the benefit of a specialist in each discipline
- You are considering a single holistic professional or team that coordinates, but are unsure about the differences before booking a session
