Who We Are

The Integrative Medical Group of Irvine blends the best of conventional, naturopathic, and holistic medicine, providing comprehensive, integrative healthcare for women of all ages.

Integrative Medical Group of Irvine provide a wide range of services, including physical exams and annual women’s visits, acute and chronic care, and a full spectrum of preventive and wellness care.

Because coordinated care at one site provides the best opportunity for achieving optimal health, IMGI provides:

  • Comprehensive healthcare
  • Integrative gynecology
  • Complex disease diagnosis and management
  • Advanced testing
  • Anti-aging medicine
  • Aesthetics and skincare
  • Nutrition and fitness

Additional services include naturopathy, acupuncture, massage, and IV therapy.

We believe that…

A doctor and her patient are equal partners in health. As our patient, you should fully understand and consent to all recommended treatments.
The best treatment is the most natural, least toxic treatment. Many pharmaceuticals have terrible side effects. These powerful drugs should be last resorts, not first-line treatments.
Illnesses are usually interconnected. We want you to tell us about all of your symptoms so we can treat them together.
In many cases, the body can heal itself. Your body is designed to be healthy. If you give your body what it needs, it can usually heal all on its own.
The goal of medicine is optimal health, not tolerable illness. We want you to feel amazing.
Health is an ongoing journey. As you travel through life, we will be here for you.

Dr. Felice Gersh Interview

Dr. Gersh is the medical director of IMGI and is board-certified in Integrative Medicine and OB-GYN. She is a globally-renowned expert in women’s health and complex disease management.

Why do women live longer than men? Does the ability to bear children play a role and to what extent do evolutionary forces discriminate between men and women?

In this in-depth interview Dr. Gersh explains why she “had to unlearn” about half of everything she learned at medical school calls for a fundamental “shake-up” in the delivery of health care.

DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) is an androgen hormone that is primarily made in the adrenal gland. It plays important roles in the health of bone, muscle, and the brain and in some women, can improve sexual function and fertility. It`s also a precursor to testosterone. Levels drop in women as they age, beginning around age 30, and some women benefit from supplementing.

Low testosterone is a natural symptom of aging, NOT menopause.

This distinction is important because some women will begin experiencing low testosterone symptoms well before they enter menopause. Many women as young as 40 will benefit from testosterone supplementation.

Conversely, some women in perimenopause and menopause will experience relative androgen excess and would be harmed by testosterone supplementation. It’s very individual.

When testing testosterone levels, you need to test both testosterone and DHEAS. If you have high testosterone, it’s important to know the root cause in order to treat it appropriately. And part of that is knowing whether your excess testosterone is ovarian or adrenal in origin.
