Dr. Wald’s “Signature Approach” to your health needs
You are unique! And you deserve personalized attention to your health concerns. These words take on meaning within the context of a comprehensive health program that is the brainchild of Dr. Michael Wald, also known as the Blood Detective. Dr. Wald goes beyond “lip service” providing his patients with personalized health services.
Dr. Wald says, “over the course of the last decade I’ve perfected a way to take large amounts of laboratory results including blood work, urine and others and nutritionally interpreting the information. Then, I perform a lengthy consultation with my patients covering all body systems. Finally, I put it all together – medical tests, nutrition tests, imaging…you name it! The reason why I am known for finding hidden health problems and their natural solutions is because of my extensive 30-year education having completed medical school, chiropractic college, my masters and PhD in nutrition – along with other advanced degrees and certifications.”

Balanced approach
Dr. Wald provides, holistic, alternative and complementary in his health care approach and perspective.
Laboratory Testing
We all know the value of carefully focused laboratory blood tests. You probably have had blood tests performed by one or more health care providers in your journey to stay and get well. We approach our patient’s needs often recommending blood tests, and other non-blood evaluations, that are more commonly performed by several health care providers, separately with little to no coordination of care and consideration. Not only do we test far more comprehensively than many health care providers, we also interpret your results within our BLOOD DETECTIVE approach described here. We believe that our approach offers us with a greater possibility of helping you achieve your health goals. We compare your blood results to “clinical ranges” and “functional” or “healthy ranges”. Clinical ranges are the blood ranges that you are used to seeing on a typical printout of your blood test results; you are compared to ranges of “normal” of seemingly well individuals in the population. These clinical ranges are useful for obvious health problems, but are not perfect and often appear “normal” even when you are not feeling well and/or when your doctor says to you, “Sorry, your blood tests are normal…I can’t help you.” Research in many areas of health care has indicated that the “normal or clinical” ranges are often inappropriate and need readjusting to keep up with new discoveries, and…”health goals” as opposed to disease-detection. In short, the Blood Detective technologies often uses different ranges of “normal” that Dr. Wald calls, “functional, healthy or optimal” that may provide an additive or alternative interpretation of your so called, “normal” blood results.
Objectiveness
Our health care team provides thorough consultations and we use extensive symptom and disease-oriented questionnaires so that we may “Integrate” our Blood DetectiveTM technology findings. This objective approach, along with our healthcare providers combined effort brings both an objective perspective as well as our subjective opinions as to how your health concerns should be managed.
Open-mindedness
Although Dr. Wald’s bias is to first consider dietary and lifestyle methods of healing, sometimes he combines his approach integrating natural and nutritional compounds and perspectives and modalities found in many different healing systems. Some of our considerations include: food plans, stress-management, various forms of nutritional supplements, exercise recommendations and referral to other health care providers when necessary; always offering ourselves to communicate with all whom you choose to work with. Dr. Wald will never “put down” conventional medical therapies and approaches as we feel this would be an ignorant and selfish position. Dr. Wald frowns upon other health care providers who willingly or unwittingly limit your health care choices – whether they are sourced within the medical or natural healing arts. Ultimately, it’s your choice what, and who, you involve in partnership into your healing plan.
Opportunity
Opportunity is born out of choice. Dr. Wald’s Integrated approach to health and wellness provides you with a greater array of choices ranging from medical and natural medicine; meaning that Dr. Wald’ attempts to make his patients aware of medical alternatives as well as natural choices. Dr. Wald’s Blood Detective Longevity Program melds all that we have to offer you creating something entirely new…an opportunity to create a tailored program for you that you cannot find in a book! In fact, our Blood Detective report is literally a book; summarizing our nutritional interpretation of your blood work. And, this “book” is created just for you!
Dedication
A special part of Dr. Wald’s personalized approach for his patients includes researching your particular symptoms and signs (your health issues) in context with the results of our testing; then, we reach on medical databases such as the National Library of Medicine to determine the latest findings and breakthroughs that we can apply specially to you. Dr. Wald’s dedication to research is often very extensive and is a source of continued learning for us that further benefits you.

“People call me the blood detective…
It all started when a grateful patient said to me, “Dr. Wald, you’re like a real-life blood detective,” and the name stuck. Now I write two regular local newspaper columns called, “Ask the Blood Detective”, have a software program, an audio series and nutritional products with the Blood Detective name. I love being called a Blood Detective and I’ve taken on the responsibility that it embodies. When it comes to helping people get well, there is no end to the degree of investigation, study and commitment I bring to the table. I treat my patients with the same understanding, love and respect as I treat my immediate family.” – Dr. Michael Wald
“The big difference between Dr. Wald and other health care providers…
Dr. Wald’s approach often goes beyond ordinary health care by incorporating natural approaches to health and disease prevention. Dr. Wald integrates his wealth of knowledge and experience to design unique solutions for his patients that are original. He teaches other doctors and nutritionists, is an author of many books, is regularly interviewed by the news, travels the world lecturing and still maintains a full-time practice. “Dr. Wald, the Blood Detective software and Blood Detective Nutritional products have been an invaluable resource for me and my patients – Dr. Daniel Bies
Dr. Wald lives and thinks holistically and uses his perspective to integrate knowledge from many aspects of natural and traditional health care approaches.
“It is not enough to just be holistic in title” according to Dr. Wald. “One must have the training, tools and access to multiple therapies and approaches under one roof; if not, the person is led astray, often wasting months and even years getting nowhere. I strongly believe that finding healing solutions that can be incorporated into one’s life is key. After all, what’s the point of giving healing advice that no one can realistically follow? I strive to create healing options that are workable for people. I eat well, juice every day, run marathons, triathlons and practice martial arts because I can – and, I plan on extending my longevity and ability to do whatever it is I want to do for a very long time”.
Dr. Wald has published many successful books (Visit Publications Page) and hundreds of articles in the areas of longevity, disease prevention and treatment, diet and nutrition. A practicing clinician for over 30 years and previous Director of Longevity at Integrated Medicine of Mount Kisco, New York, Dr. Wald has been nicknamed “The Blood Detective” by a grateful patient for his keen ability to zero-in on health problems that many health practitioners, regardless of specialty, often miss. Having provided dietary, nutrition and longevity counseling to thousands of patients, Dr. Wald warns, “Dietary factors are the number one factor influencing our health and disease predilection. By incorporating careful consultation, specially designed health appraisal questionnaires, diagnostic intuitiveness and my Blood Detective technology, I have helped hundreds of patients during my career of over 30 years. I am excited to help you get well naturally!”
