Alternative Treatment Options Aimed at Treating Your Specific Needs

Pediatric Integrative Medicine

Integrative Medical Center in Scottsdale

"Pediatric Integrative Medicine is the practice of medicine that reaffirms the importance of the relationship between practitioner and child and family, focuses on the whole child, is informed by evidence, and makes use of all appropriate therapeutic approaches, healthcare professionals and disciplines to achieve optimal health and healing."
(Adapted from the Consortium of Academic Health Centers for Integrative Medicine, May 2005)

Pediatric Integrative Medicine combines the best of natural and conventional healing in one location. At the Arizona Center for Advanced Medicine, a Scottsdale integrative medical center, we integrate Eastern and Western medicine traditions and improve the health of our children in a holistic way that treats each child and family unit as a unique and valued member.*

We implement the best of modern science and evidence-based medicine by utilizing the most up to date diagnostic tools, protocols, and treatments. At the same time we can learn from ancient and natural traditions that can benefit our children in ways that complement conventional medicine.

Our Approach to Pediatric Care

What does this look like? An initial evaluation typically includes:

  • Measuring the child's height
  • Measuring the child's weight
  • A bioimpedance analysis
  • A Nutri Energetic System scan
  • Standard laboratory blood tests
  • A saliva test

An individualized wellness plan may include:

  • Probiotics
  • A gluten-free diet
  • Acupressure
  • A rescue inhaler
  • Homeopathic remedies
  • Antibiotics
  • Herbs
  • Vitamins

As you can see, Pediatric Integrative Medicine 'cherry picks' the very best, scientifically supported, safe and effective therapies from both mainstream medical therapies and Complementary and Alternative medicine systems. We have found, over the course of many years, this approach effectively addresses the complex health conditions afflicting our patients and helps them get back on track towards physical, emotional, and spiritual wellness.

  • You folks have given me my life back. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

    “My entire life I have had difficulty with digestion. I had unexplained hives from the age of 16. As an adult I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia.

I want to make sure the yeast is gone before I do this.

    “Hello Dr. Grout! Hope all is well there AZCAM. I think about you all often. I'm happy to say that I'm doing very well, and will schedule another phone consultation when, and if, I have questions or have something to report regarding my health. I'm so thankful that I'm doing well (including gaining some weight & muscle back), and thank you again for making the treatment for Lyme available!* It's been a Godsend for me!!! *Disclaimer: There is no guarantee of successes for any given medical treatment.

  • Definitely a game changer!

    “I just wanted to take a moment to email you to say thank you for your very detailed testing and even considering Lyme as a possible suspect to my ailments.* Had I not gone to see you I would have never even thought of Lyme as a reason for my weakness on my right arm and leg.* In your recommendations you had stated you wanted me to possibly get checked for Lyme and I asked and asked and not one insurance doctor would do the test.* Everyone said that there was no reason to check. Well, we moved to Virginia at the end of November and finally about three weeks ago the neurologist that I went to see for my migraines here tested me for Lyme. The results came back equivocal (1.10 on Elisa) and she simply stated that they found antibodies in my blood. And she started me on Doxycycline (100mg 2x day) for 21 days. I don’t know much about Lyme but will be seeing an infectious disease doctor on Wednesday. In the meantime, we had our newborn (born 1/21/13) tested with the Western blot and another test and per the pediatrician the results were negative. We will continue praying that he will not be affected. … Thank you very much for being that little guiding light that led us in the right direction.* Once again Dr.Grout, continue to do what you do.* You were definitely a game changer for sure.* *Disclaimer: There is no guarantee of successes for any given medical treatment.

  • I had a second chance in life after meeting Dr. Grout.

    “I had a second chance in life after meeting Dr. Grout.
    I have been very sick with Lyme disease for 30 years and Dr. Grout immediately put me on a healing path which included nutrition, supplements, heavy metal testing, antibiotics and alternative therapies. My most profound improvements came from the alternative treatment, SOT (Supportive Oligonucleotide Therapy).
    I am very fortunate for having met Dr.Grout and thankful for the treatment options she presented. I am 6 months into the treatment and I am currently doing things I have not been able to do for years which include cognitive functions and physical tasks.
    Dr. Grout and team are all very efficient and organized. Also, Dr. Grout has authored a book “An Alphabet of Good Health in a sick world” which is a good read for anyone with chronic illness.”
