A little about my history and treatment of patients:

Doctor Suzanne Alt. grew up in the Midwest with a love for the outdoors, animals, and sports. She has traveled all over the United States and has settled down in SW Florida. She went to medical school in Kirksville, Missouri at the Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine (the founding school of Osteopathy). She did an internship at Brentwood Hospital in Cleveland, Ohio. She then went on to practice family medicine in a private practice in Queen City, Missouri and continued as an instructor in the Department of Family Medicine and was Associate Director of the Junior/Senior Geriatric Medical Program. After two years of family practice, she went back to finish an Anesthesiology Residency at the University of Maryland-Baltimore. Suzanne is a state of the art trained physician that has her patients at the center focus of her care. She practices actively in anesthesiology and part-time in family medicine. She is board certified in both specialties and is board eligible in Emergency Medicine. She has been active in pain medicine and feels that patients need to be listened to closely as each case teaches the physician something new.
Osteopathic medicine is growing in the world. We believe that the allopathic (MD) profession approaches disease in a "fix the disease" format while the osteopathic profession believe in more "prevent the disease" attitude. It is not always obvious, but is evident in our thinking and diagnostic process. "The body can heal itself with appropriate help" is one of our principles. This has to do with the additional treatment modality of "osteopathic manipulation treatment". Traditional medicine is used as state of the art and then adding documented assistance of manipulation in an appropriate case (like adding penicillin in strep throat) can realize amazing improvements. My specialties are anesthesia and family medicine. All questions are welcome. 

         Thanks. Suzanne
