Craig M. Bereznoff, DO
Medical Director – Physician & Surgeon
|
|
Dr. Bereznoff has been in Practice since 1983. He
began his career in Aerospace and Environmental Medicine while Serving as a Flight Surgeon
for the 3rd Marine Corp Air Wing where he was voted Flight Surgeon of the
year. Initially slated to move onto a career as an astronaut -
physician, his path in this direction was cut short when he developed
cancer in 1985. Having experienced and battled his cancer, he began
to see, feel and understand what patients who are ill
experience. This led him further along the path of empathy
that few physicians can have without having been involved as a patient in
the health care system. With
the encouragement of the Marine Corps Aviators in his squadrons, he left
his position as a flight surgeon and opened his practice in Family
Medicine and Surgery in Longmont
, Colorado in 1986.
Lessons learned, as a patient, have contributed to his practice growing
over the past years to what it is today. Dr. Bereznoff has
seen the benefits of what complementary and alternative medicine has to
offer as well as what role the spirit of the individual has to do with
their health and ability to recover and change their life. He
recognizes what role the spirit plays in creating illness within the
individual. As a result, he has progressively incorporated services into
his practice that provide a more comprehensive health care environment
for his patients.
The mainstay of his practice is conventional medical and surgical care
wherein he recognizes the age old medical axiom; "first do no
harm". Dr. Bereznoff has been blessed with an intuitive
ability to see what is wrong, without always needing to "run every
test in the book". He has always said, " I treat patients,
not numbers or pictures".
Dr. Bereznoff sees state of the art medical care as being the ARTFULL
application of the most up to date medical and scientific knowledge. In his practice, you are not just a
symptom, you are a whole person who has a family, a job, a physical and
emotional life; all of which are impacted by your current state of
health.
He believes in preventing disease before being required to treat it. Dr.
Bereznoff has always believed in what Sir William Osler, M.D.,one of the
four physicians who founded Johns Hopkins Hospital, said in the late
1800's, ‘…listen to
your patient, he is telling you the diagnosis.’
Listening is something many physicians seem too busy to do today.
It is with this background and principles that he teaches the externs,
interns and residents that you may encounter in the practice.
Dr. Bereznoff is a clinical associate professor for the University of
Colorado Medical School and 3 other medical schools. He feels honored to
be able to teach his students what it means and how to be a great
physician.

Psychotherapist

My focus as a psychotherapist and interfaith minister is
to compassionately help people in every aspect of growing. My driven
pursuit of personal growth and search for intellectual, emotional and
spiritual truth always brings me to the cutting-edge of the latest health
developments, learning theories, and therapeutic techniques.
My practice is a result of many years of traditional schooling, spiritual
practices, creativity, and immersion into alternative/complementary
healing modalities. Energy
Psychology, a pillar of my practice, provides new ways to access and work
with the subconscious, allowing us to go far beyond conventional talk
therapy. As an interfaith
minister, I rely on spiritual wisdom to show me the way and when
appropriate bring in faith during our sessions.
My 13 years with the Outward Bound Schools immersed me in experiential
wilderness programming and in the power of nature as a tool for self-
growth, discovery and connection to spirit. I blended and utilized my
psychotherapy and experiential education skills to create therapeutic
experiential programs. As Program Director of the North Carolina School,
I pioneered the first Eating Disorders, Chemical Dependency and Corporate
Wilderness Courses.
My passion and commitment is to create truly transformative individual,
couple and family sessions. Cutting-edge modalities integrated with
traditional and other complementary methods, bring incredible results to
my clients. Our sessions are
profound, illuminating and life-changing. We seek to achieve higher
levels of awareness, action, change, wisdom and serenity.
Credentials:
Masters in Clinical Social Work (MSW), Masters in Experiential Education
(MEd), Academy Certified Social Workers (ACSW), Bachelor of Divinity -Interfaith
Minister (BDiv), Phi Beta Kappa, Magna Cum Laude, Department of Health,
