Physician-owned

Dr. Saleh and Dr. Karim own the practice and see every patient themselves. There is no layer between you and your doctor.

Time to listen

Initial consults usually last at least 30 minutes. Follow-ups happen when you need them, often the same day.

Upfront pricing

Wellness memberships start at $100 a month and are priced by treatment type. A single visit is $125. Every cost is quoted before anything is done.

Assessment before anything

Every visit starts with a thorough assessment and a real conversation. Diagnostics are ordered when your treatment calls for them, not as a default.

Eastern medicine, in-house

Dr. Chanelle Azar, our Eastern Medicine specialist, brings Hijama, acupuncture, and herbal medicine into the same roof as your medical care.

Our story

Two doctors who got tired of medicine on a clock.

Lavena Health was founded by Dr. Adeeb Saleh, DO and Dr. Ahmed Karim, MD, two physicians who met inside the system and chose to walk away from it together. Between them they had spent years in emergency rooms and busy clinics, watching good medicine get squeezed into shorter and shorter visits by insurance rules, billing codes, and quotas. Over time it stopped feeling like caring for people and started feeling like feeding a machine.

They also saw what our community was missing: real preventative medicine. Care that gets ahead of disease instead of only reacting to it — hormones, metabolism, weight, energy, and longevity taken seriously long before a crisis forces the conversation. The area had no shortage of urgent care. What it lacked was a place built to keep you well.

So they built one. At Lavena Health, Dr. Saleh and Dr. Karim own the practice and see every patient themselves — no middle layer, no rotating providers, no insurance company deciding what you're allowed to need. Dr. Saleh is a board-certified Emergency Medicine physician with dual A4M certifications in Hormone Replacement Therapy and Weight-Loss Medicine; Dr. Karim brings a modern, proactive approach to wellness, weight loss, and longevity, known for his bedside manner and for putting patient education at the center of every plan.

What they share is a simple conviction: the best medicine is the kind you actually understand. They take time to explain what's happening in your body in plain language, break it into steps you can act on, and make sure every patient leaves seen, heard, and clear on the path forward. Your visit takes the time it takes — because that's how real outcomes happen.

— Dr. Adeeb Saleh, DO & Dr. Ahmed Karim, MD · Founders & owners, Lavena Health
Explained, not dictated

We break your health down in plain language — what's happening, why it matters, and exactly what to do about it — so you can understand it and act on it.

Seen and heard

Every patient gets unhurried time and a real conversation. You're a person we know by name, never a number on a packed schedule.

Prevention first

We get ahead of disease with proactive, longevity-minded care — protecting your energy, metabolism, and health for years, not just patching a problem today.
