"A.T. Still, MD, the founder of osteopathic medicine, once said, ""To find health should be the object of the doctor. Anyone can find disease."" From my early days in medical school, I was taught to look at the whole person, meaning that I see each patient as more than just a collection of parts that may become injured or disease. This holistic approach taught me how to integrate the patient into the health care process as a partner. This basic foundation was expanded upon as I completed both my residence and fellowship at Duke. I like to think that in the years I have been practicing medicine, I have honored those words spoken by Dr. Still. As a board certified family physician, I have sought to promote wellness and wellbeing among my patients at all stages of their lives, through collaborative partnerships with them (and sometimes their caregivers) in what I believe is truly patient-centered care. I look forward to working with you or your loved one in the future. Together, we can find health.". Dr. Bayless is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Gitelman Syndrome.
