| Dr. Cathie Lippman has practiced Environmental and Preventive Medicine in Beverly Hills for 20 years. Environmental Medicine regards illness as possibly being a result of sensitivities to foods or chemicals or some other aspect of the environment. To screen for these sensitivities, Dr. Lippman evaluates each patient with an FDA-registered device that non-invasively assesses whether food, inhalant, or chemical sensitivities may be issues for the person. In addition, it allows her to screen for infections, toxicities, and nutritional deficiencies that may also contribute to the person’s symptoms.
Dr. Lippman received her M.D. in 1973 from the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine. After a pediatric internship at LA County-USC Medical Center, she studied Adult and Child Psychiatry at UCLA and was Board Certified in each specialty in 1980. Dr. Lippman became dissatisfied with the limitations of a purely psychiatric focus. She changed her practice from psychiatry to alternative medicine in order to address the whole individual.
Dr. Lippman’s extensive knowledge and understanding of the whole person, including psychological, nutritional, and physiological influences, as well as environmental factors, make her uniquely qualified to examine how these various influences affect the patient. Her special approach enables her to prioritize the actions one should take to regain health. Dr. Lippman often recommends that patients do laboratory studies to confirm the presence and severity of infections, toxicities or deficiencies. She then makes recommendations for change in diet as well as employing homeopathics, nutritional supplements, and/or herbs to effect the desired changes.
What makes Dr. Lippman different from other doctors is her commitment to her patients and the time she spends to review comprehensively their history and symptoms and to detect the causes of their disorders. Dr. Lippman insists on developing a cooperative relationship with her patients. She wants people to feel empowered to do as much as they can for themselves in a safe manner and believes in educating her patients and explaining what is important for their well-being.
Dr. Lippman is a resident of Los Angeles, CA.
