At GoodWorks Primary Care, we believe healthcare should be more than quick fixes and prescription refills. More and more people are realizing that symptom management doesn’t do what we need it to. But integrative medicine? It’s an approach that works. It’s an approach that blends the best of traditional medicine with holistic, root-cause solutions—leading to a level of care that’s hard to find in today’s sick-based, insurance-based system.
Here, we take the time to understand why they’re happening. Then we partner with you to build a long-term plan based on nutrition, lifestyle, advanced lab testing, and evidence-based treatments that support your body’s natural ability to heal.
Those of us who live in and around Pagosa Springs know the power of a wellness spa or a soak in a hot spring. But it’s time to take your wellness to a new level. That starts with integrative medicine.
Integrative medicine is a holistic approach that addresses the physical, emotional, and environmental factors that contribute to your health. It brings together conventional diagnostics and treatments with proven natural and lifestyle-based therapies to get to the root cause of illness. It’s not “granola medicine” – it’s a tried-and-true method that takes your conditions seriously.
This means you get the best of both worlds: personalized care that doesn’t ignore symptoms—but also doesn’t stop at covering them up.
Weight Gain and Metabolic Slowdown
We evaluate the hormonal, nutritional, and lifestyle factors that may be holding back your metabolism—and help you create a sustainable plan that actually works.
Type 2 Diabetes and Pre-Diabetes
Through nutrition guidance, exercise plans, stress management, and integrative lab work, we help many patients reverse or significantly improve blood sugar imbalances.
Hormone Imbalance
Whether you’re navigating perimenopause, thyroid issues, or low testosterone, we address underlying drivers and support your body’s hormone pathways safely and naturally.
Gut Health and Digestive Issues
From bloating and constipation to IBS and food sensitivities, we dig deeper to uncover inflammation, microbiome imbalances, and food triggers—then work with you to heal your gut from the inside out.
Sleep Issues and Insomnia
Good sleep doesn’t start with counting sheep. It starts with balanced hormones, gut health, and wellness habits. We find out what’s getting in the way of you and a restful night’s sleep.
High Blood Pressure
Instead of just prescribing medication, we look at stress, diet, weight, inflammation, and nutrient imbalances that may be contributing to your elevated blood pressure—offering solutions that can support real improvement.
Many integrative clinics charge hundreds or thousands of dollars per visit or require concierge fees that put root-cause care out of reach. But with Direct Primary Care (DPC) at GoodWorks, your monthly membership includes integrative support, extended visits, and personalized attention—without breaking the bank.
In many cases, the best integrative care comes down to a trusted relationship between you and your doctor. Dr. Buchner listens to your concerns, gets to know your health history, and creates a wellness plan that meets you where you are.
One of the most powerful parts of care at GoodWorks Primary Care is continuity—you’re not just a name on a chart. In the insurance-based world, it’s common to bounce between doctors due to changing networks, provider turnover, retirements, or insurance limitations. One year, you’re seeing someone new for your physical, the next year you’re starting from scratch with another provider who doesn’t know your history or your goals. That’s frustrating, and it can lead to fragmented, superficial care.
At GoodWorks Primary Care, you’ll work directly with Dr. Buchner, who takes the time to truly understand your health story, your priorities, and how your body responds over time. With an integrative approach that combines root-cause medicine with traditional primary care, Dr. Buchner helps you connect the dots and stay on track. Whether you’re managing a chronic condition, fine-tuning your energy levels, or simply aiming to feel better in your daily life, you’ll be able to build on that relationship visit after visit—confident that your health is moving in the right direction with a doctor who actually knows you.
Most people can meet all their day-to-day healthcare needs right here—without needing to bounce between multiple providers. Whether you’re a:
