Camas Family Doctor

Medical Services

Camas Family Doctor is an old school Family Physician's office.
As a generalist, Dr. Kuzis is adept at evaluating the vast majority of medical issues. He maintains excellent working relationships with all traditional medical specialties as well as some "Alternative Care" providers. 
 
In office evaluation, minor office surgery, care of hospitalized patients, as well as routine pregnancy care (with hospital delivery) are all part of his week. While special services such as house calls are available, they are reserved for special or extraordinary cases, (let's hope you never need to take advantage of these services).

As a Family Physician, Dr. Kuzis sees all ages of patients from young children to those advanced in age. By making observations about who has the healthiest and most fruitful lives, he has seen the value of healthy habits across the life span.

Personally, it was fitness and nutrition awareness that helped reshape his own body, mind and life as a teen. Having had the privilege to compete at a national level as a surfer, oarsman, sailor and as a rowing coach, he has seen the transforming power of these habits over and over.

As he grew in his practice of medicine he has tracked his observations of his patients’ lives and it has become crystal clear that Americans have, by and large, lost touch with the basic skills of fitness and nutrition which are the foundation of healthy lifestyles.

So the question became “How does one promote these basic nutrition and fitness skills as a method of preventing disease and relieving suffering?” After a long and careful search it appears there are few affordable options in our area for basic fitness and nutrition coaching education.

Not one to sit idle, Dr. Kuzis decided to create a new form of fitness training and nutrition coaching. In order to do so, he has assembled a skilled team and worked diligently with them to create fitness and nutrition classes which are based in the latest of medical, fitness and nutritional evidence.

The goal of these services is to give you the information and motivation you need to start on creating your own set of healthy life skills. While ongoing training is available, it is not required. The programs are designed to give you the basic skills you need and to provide you an individualized plan, which should be enough to start you on building your own healthy lifestyle.

Unfortunately, these services are not covered by most insurance plans, and the office will not bill insurance for them. (If you are one of the lucky folks whose insurance DOES cover fitness / nutrition education, you should be able to submit a copy of your detailed receipt to them for reimbursement.)
