CIOFM - Cincinnati Integrative Oncology and Functional Medicine
About this clinic
<p><strong>Dr. Jamie K. Waselenko, MD, FACP, FICT</strong>, is the medical director and founder of Cincinnati Integrated Oncology and Functional Medicine (CIOFM). She is board-certified in internal medicine, hematology, and oncology.</p><p>After leaving the Christ Hospital in 2021, she acquired additional expertise in integrative oncology and functional medicine. This has radically changed the way she approaches cancer. She now incorporates a terrain-based approach to support the body’s amazing ability to heal. She directs therapies and lifestyle modification at the patient’s specific vulnerabilities/root causes that have allowed cancer to develop and grow. Dr. Jamie believes altering the terrain is a missing link in improving patient outcomes.</p><p>She also has recruited a team of like-minded individuals with comprehensive oncology care expertise. The focus at CIOFM is really on the integrative oncology and functional medicine aspects of care for patients with cancer, those at risk of developing cancer, or those who have concerns about cancer recurrence. CIOFM offers a much more comprehensive approach, examining prior treatment, exposures, and root causes and integrating holistic treatments along with lifestyle modification, which not only significantly improves cancer outcomes but also will likely help patients live healthier lives.</p><p>Dr. Jamie, as her patients call her, is also happy to work with your conventional oncologist if you desire. She believes that there is a role for conventional oncology and practices allopathic oncology at other locations. However, she believes better outcomes likely necessitate the combination of conventional and terrain-based therapies. Our incredible team utilizes a terrain-based approach pioneered by Dr. Nasha Winters, an internationally recognized naturopathic oncologist and cancer survivor. Treating cancer as a metabolic disease and targeting the terrain, we feel, is critical in improving cancer outcomes. Here at CIOFM, we don’t guess. We test and address these vulnerabilities to direct your ideal anti-cancer strategy. Dr. Jamie also uses repurposed medications, food as medicine, or supplements to improve long-term cancer outcomes. </p><p>Patients will also work with the rest of our team, including a nutritionist who specializes in functional medicine and a healthcare coach, to support long-term, meaningful changes. It takes a village, and we are here to help direct you and be part of your support during this critical journey.</p>
