FRUSTRATED AND STILL SUFFERING? Tired of being bounced around to multiple Providers for the same problem? Feel like you are still getting the same transient results that last only days to a week with a return to baseline? Or maybe you’ve been told that the newest treatments are the only options that will work?
It isn’t new or novel approaches that make a difference to most individuals. Realistically, it is matching a person’s problems to the appropriate type of treatment that makes an option successful. If your Provider recognizes how you are biochemically, physically and phenotypically different from other patients, then you can be more assured that your outcomes will be successful. We refer to this as ‘individualized care’, and it is improved when your Providers have gained insight from Specialist training and experience.
So, if you don’t feel that your current clinical options fully support your whole health and personal preferences, please consider investing into our unique clinical consultation and treatment options. Our Providers will work as your advocate to develop a truly collaborative care plan. Here you will find respect, validation and peace of mind.
Our objective is to help you define and optimize your health and wellbeing needs, while minimizing any physiological, psychological, energetic or financial barriers. We offer affordable and accessible care in an era when insurance is forcing clinical medicine to provide less time and effort.
If you aren’t yet familiar with members of the NORTH SHORE OSTEOPATHIC Team, please look under “Who We Are” to learn more our distinct strengths and identities. Although we differ in approaches and expertise, we hope that patients will come to know us as individuals, but will ultimately allow us to work together so as to maximize time and efforts toward achieving your personal health and wellbeing goals.
“Tell us what you care about. What are your values? What do you want your care providers to know about you? How do you want to define yourself? What makes you special? How do you want us to provide valuable information and options to you?”
NORTH SHORE OSTEOPATHIC was originally founded by Dr. Behling in 2013 on Long Island, New York as a patient-centered Osteopathic Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation solo-physician practice with referrals from Primary Care providers, OB-gynecologists, Urologists, Pain Interventionalists, Neurologists, Orthopedists, Neurosurgeons, Spine Surgeons and other rehabilitation and bodywork professionals.
After moving to New Hampshire in 2019, Dr. Behling has since had the opportunity to redesign her solo-physician practice into an integrative collective of clinical specialists. NORTH SHORE OSTEOPATHIC now offers several Allopathic, Osteopathic, Oriental Medicine, Japanese acupuncture, Physical Medicine, Health Behaviour and Bodywork options.
NORTH SHORE OSTEOPATHIC also offers a unique variety of appointment types:
STANDARD APPOINTMENTS that you may find reimbursable via insurance carriers (after payment in full) with individual Providers/Practitioners
ALL-INCLUSIVE APPOINTMENTS for those who do not have or anticipate will not be reimbursed by insurance (discount applied)
ALL-INCLUSIVE TEAM-BASED APPOINTMENTS. We all know that it takes a community - so we offer longer appointments as part of our novel pain and symptom-management Team-Based model of care so that multiple specialists can evaluate and manage together within one visit. Team-members also maintain weekly Interdisciplinary meetings to discuss our shared patients so as to encourage trouble-shooting and efficiency in management.
DUAL-SPECIALIST/PROVIDER APPOINTMENTS
Acupuncture/Bodywork (acupuncture may or may not be reimbursable, massage tends not to be reimbursable)
Health Behaviour Counseling and Peer Support when you aren’t ready or don’t feel that you want to spend time with a Psychologist / Psychiatrist.
WE ARE A TEAM YOU CAN COUNT ON! All of us have been fortunate in growing our practices while still being mindful of how we listen and treat our patients. It takes significant time and effort to develop a therapeutic relationship. The best way we know how to do this well is to spend that time and consistently inquire about your needs regarding treatment options - while maintaining high standards of care.
We even provide a few alternative ways to get more active, less fear of falling or failing, gain confidence and skills, let off some steam, and engage with others. Look no further - we have a “class“ for that!
Please feel free to read some of our feedback! We really do believe that our patients’ successful outcomes are facilitated by our joy of work. What makes our type of work joyous is that we are always looking to solve our patients’ puzzling issues! We like to think that if the puzzle has yet to solved, it’s because one doesn’t have all the pieces yet.
Our approaches are unique, individualized AND EFFECTIVE. We don’t follow protocols like other pain and symptom management groups. Patients are referred to us because NORTH SHORE OSTEOPATHIC consistently provides measureable improvements in symptoms and function. Referral sources regularly tell us how much they appreciate our mission and vision. They know what to expect and what distinguishes us from other professionals in the region.
Test our integrity. Inquire about our insights and options. Come to know our community of care. We will aways strive to meet you where you are. We won’t make promises. We won’t provide a service that is not indicated or unlikely to be successful. And if you aren’t sure what you need or what to expect, we will be diligent in your education, treatment and surveillance, including help you coordinate with other specialists so as to achieve realistic outcomes.
