Dr. Lavergne's mission is to enhance the health of Capital District residents of all ages using naturopathic medicine and acupuncture, giving people an alternative to pharmaceutical drugs or surgery when appropriate. 

Dr. Lavergne is not anti-conventional medicine. However, he does believe there are many instances where pharmaceutical drugs and surgery are used too soon, with dangerous side effects and complications, when other non-invasive therapies could have been used successfully. 

Above all, Dr. Lavergne believes his role is that of a teacher, educating patients and encouraging self-responsibility for their health. That being said, Dr. Lavergne's services are not for everybody - people who are looking for a quick fix to their health condition are probably not good candidates for successful outcomes. However, people who are interested in making the effort to address underlying causes and conditions of their health and who are willing to take a more proactive role in their health usually obtain better results.
