Medical Care

  • We care for patients from newborns through age 18 — offering both wellness visits and problem-focused appointments tailored to your child’s needs. Our approach is flexible and family-centered: we accommodate individualized vaccine schedules and work with parents to create plans that respect medical guidance and family preferences. Services include routine checkups, developmental screenings, school and sports physicals, acute illness treatment, chronic-condition management, and anticipatory guidance for growth, nutrition, sleep, and behavior. Book an appointment to discuss preventive care, vaccinations on a schedule that works for your family, or any acute concerns.

  • Our women’s health services offer personalized, integrative care focused on hormonal balance, reproductive health, and whole-person wellness. We combine evidence-based medicine with nutrition, lifestyle counseling, and targeted testing to address menstrual irregularities, perimenopause and menopause symptoms, contraceptive and fertility guidance, thyroid and adrenal concerns, and sexual health

    Our approach emphasizes individualized treatment plans — including bioidentical hormone therapy when appropriate — coordinated care, and ongoing support to help you feel your best at every life stage. Book an appointment to discuss a care plan tailored to your needs.

  • Our mental health services combine evidence-based behavioral care, medication management, and integrative therapies to treat anxiety, depression, ADHD, and related concerns. We begin with a thorough assessment that considers medical, psychological, lifestyle, and social factors, then develop personalized treatment plans.

    • Medication Management: Careful evaluation and ongoing monitoring of psychiatric medications to optimize benefits and minimize side effects. We coordinate with therapists and primary care to ensure safe, integrated pharmacologic treatment.

    • Behavioral Care: Cognitive behavioral therapy, skills training, and brief psychotherapy to address symptoms, improve coping, and build lasting strategies for emotional regulation and functioning.

    • Integrative Approach: We incorporate lifestyle medicine—nutrition, sleep, movement, stress-reduction techniques, and when appropriate, supplements or complementary therapies—to support mental wellness alongside conventional treatments.

    Our team prioritizes collaborative, patient-centered care tailored to each individual’s goals and life circumstances. Book an appointment to start a balanced, holistic plan for anxiety, depression, ADHD, and overall mental health.

  • Chiropractic care at IFM focuses on gentle, individualized treatments to restore alignment, improve nervous system function, and support overall wellness. We offer manual adjustments tailored to each patient’s needs and Network Spinal Techniques that use light, precise contacts to encourage efficient spinal organization and pain reduction. Whether you’re seeking relief from back or neck pain, recovering from injury, or aiming to enhance posture and movement, our integrative approach combines chiropractic expertise with your broader family medicine plan for coordinated, whole-person care.

  • Our urgent care services provide prompt, compassionate treatment for sudden illnesses and injuries that need timely attention but are not life-threatening. We manage a range of acute concerns — fevers, respiratory infections, minor fractures and sprains, lacerations, allergic reactions, dehydration, and more — with skilled clinical assessment, diagnostic testing, wound care, and short-term medication management.

    Our team emphasizes integrative, patient-centered care: addressing immediate symptoms while considering your overall health and follow-up needs. If you need urgent evaluation, we offer efficient visits designed to get you the right treatment and clear guidance for recovery.

Integrative Services

  • We offer in-office Spravato (esketamine) treatments for adults with treatment-resistant major depressive disorder (MDD). Administered under medical supervision, Spravato is an FDA-approved, fast-acting nasal-spray therapy used alongside an oral antidepressant when traditional treatments have not produced adequate relief.

    Our team provides careful screening, individualized dosing, monitored administration, and post-treatment observation in a comfortable, private setting to prioritize your safety and support symptom improvement. If you’re exploring advanced options for persistent depression, we can evaluate whether Spravato is an appropriate next step and guide you through the treatment process.

  • Our weight loss services combine personalized, integrative care with evidence-based medical options to help you reach and sustain a healthier weight. We offer GLP-1 receptor agonist injections as part of a comprehensive program that includes individualized assessment, nutrition and lifestyle coaching, and ongoing medical monitoring.

    GLP-1 therapy can support appetite control and metabolic health; our team tailors dosing, tracks progress, and addresses side effects to ensure safe, effective treatment aligned with your goals. Book a consultation to learn whether GLP-1 therapy and our integrative approach are right for you.

  • Our intimate wellness services combine advanced, evidence-based procedures with compassionate, personalized care to support women’s pelvic health, sexual function, and overall quality of life. We are proud to offer FemiLift — the only device of its kind in Iowa — and the O-Shot, both designed to address common concerns such as vaginal laxity, dryness, urinary urgency or leakage, pain with intercourse, and decreased arousal.

    Treatments are performed in a discreet, comfortable setting by experienced clinicians who tailor care plans to your goals and medical history. Whether you seek rejuvenation after childbirth, menopause support, or improvement in sexual wellbeing, we provide a confidential consultation to explain options, expected outcomes, and recovery so you can make an informed choice.

  • IV Hydration and vitamin injections at IFM provide fast, effective delivery of fluids and essential nutrients to help restore hydration, boost energy, support immune function, and accelerate recovery from illness, travel fatigue, or intense activity.

    Administered by experienced clinicians using medical-grade formulations tailored to your needs, these therapies offer a safe, convenient option for targeted nutrient replenishment when oral supplements aren’t enough. Discuss goals with your provider to determine the right protocol and frequency for optimal results.

  • Alpha-Stim provides a non-invasive, clinically supported option for reducing anxiety, improving sleep, and easing pain through cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) and microcurrent electrical therapy (MET). We offer flexible access to the therapy: short-term rentals for at-home trial, in-office treatment sessions supervised by our clinicians, and units available for purchase for ongoing personal use. Our team will help you determine the most appropriate option, provide device orientation, and support a personalized plan that complements your integrative family medicine care.

Aesthetic Treatments

  • Refresh your skin and restore a natural, youthful glow with our non-surgical facial rejuvenation options: ClearLift and DYE-VL. ClearLift is a gentle, non-ablative laser that stimulates collagen production for firmer, smoother skin with minimal downtime. DYE-VL targets vascular and pigmented lesions to reduce redness, sunspots, and uneven tone for a clearer complexion. Together, these treatments provide a customizable, integrative approach to reduce signs of aging and reveal healthier-looking skin while fitting into your lifestyle.

  • Super Hair Removal (SHR) at IFM offers a gentler, faster alternative to traditional laser hair removal by combining repeated low-fluence pulses with high repetition rates and advanced cooling. Instead of delivering one high-intensity blast, SHR heats the hair follicles gradually to a level that disables regrowth while keeping surrounding skin comfortable and protected. This approach reduces pain, lowers risk of burns or pigment changes, and works effectively on a wider range of skin tones and finer hair types.

    Treatments are typically quicker with less downtime, making SHR a practical choice for larger areas and for patients seeking a more comfortable, inclusive hair-reduction option.

  • We offer a targeted toenail fungus treatment using the Alma Clearlift laser to safely and effectively reduce fungal growth and improve nail appearance. The Clearlift delivers precise, controlled laser energy that penetrates the nail to target fungal organisms with minimal discomfort and no topical chemicals. Treatments are quick, performed in-office with no downtime, and tailored to each patient’s nail thickness and severity.

    Most patients require a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart for optimal results, and our clinicians combine the laser protocol with individualized aftercare guidance to support long-term nail health.

  • Our CO2 laser wart removal offers a precise, virtually painless option to eliminate warts quickly and safely. Using a focused carbon dioxide laser, we target wart tissue while minimizing damage to surrounding skin, promoting faster healing and reduced scarring.

    Treatments are performed by experienced clinicians in a calm, professional setting; most patients report little to no discomfort thanks to topical numbing and the laser’s precision. Expect a brief in-office procedure, clear aftercare instructions, and follow-up to ensure optimal results. Book a consultation to determine if CO2 laser removal is the right choice for your warts.

  • Our tattoo removal laser service offers safe, effective fading and elimination of unwanted tattoos using advanced laser technology tailored to your skin type and ink colors. Delivered by experienced clinicians in a comfortable, medically supervised setting, the treatment plan is personalized—covering consultation, expected number of sessions, pain management options, and aftercare guidance.

    Whether removing a small, faded piece or preparing skin for a cover-up, we prioritize predictable results, skin health, and minimal downtime to help you achieve a clean, refreshed appearance.

  • PRP Microneedling combines microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) derived from your own blood to promote natural skin renewal. Tiny controlled micro-injuries stimulate collagen and elastin production while PRP delivers concentrated growth factors to accelerate healing and enhance results. The treatment targets fine lines, acne scars, uneven texture, and overall skin tone with minimal downtime and a personalized approach. Performed in a comfortable clinical setting, PRP Microneedling at IFM is tailored to your skin goals and overall health for lasting, natural-looking improvement.
