Arizona Integrative Medical Solutions

Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Mona Morstein, Owner of Arizona Integrative Medical Solutions, located in Mesa, AZ, USA.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

I am a naturopathic physician. I'm basically a general practice physician who specializes in integrative, alternative medicine. I see children and adults. My specialties are gastrointestinal concerns, all hormonal concerns (diabetes, thyroid, adrenals, menstrual and post-menopausal imbalances), auto-immune disease, and basic conditions people get (skin rashes, hypertension, high cholesterol, migraines, etc.).

Tell us about yourself

I learned about natural ways of treating people by having my seizures and OCD cured by changing my diet when I was 16. Those conditions went away within two months and have never returned. I wound up becoming a naturopathic physician 33 years ago. I've always been in private practice but also taught at a naturopathic medical school for 11 years. I'm motivated by the idealism of helping people be healthier and live more fulfilling lives and also on the pragmatic side of making a living.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

I think my biggest accomplishment is being respected as a caring, knowledgeable doctor. Getting through difficult times with employees, the pandemic, and other small business stresses have positively shown my resilience and strength.

What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?

Well...the day-to-day expenses and organization, employees not showing up, the lack of paid vacations, making decisions on one's own all the time.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

Be strong, be positive, be respectful. Don't let the frustrations overwhelm you. Have a good diet, exercise regimen, sleep habits, supplements, laughter, stress management tools to keep yourself well balanced and happy even if the business is occasionally throwing you curves. Focus on what you want to bring to the world, the value of who you are, and what you offer others.

I really recommend naturopathic medicine to everyone! We spend more time with patients, and really go over in-depth their health history and current conditions, and then set up protocols designed to heal and strengthen their bodies/minds. I love being a naturopathic physician!
