Dr. C. Patricia Fater is a Board Certified Family Physician, This Board Certification means that after graduation from Temple University School of Medicine in Philadelphia, PA, she completed Family Practice Residency. This training involves treatment of all parts of all people; young, old, male, female. Family practice is seen as a specialty of breadth. And this view is further broadened when Dr. Fater works with you to try to treat the whole person, mind, body and spirit. That is what "holistic" medicine is all about.

At Complete Wellness, you will be treated with respect and care. Our friendly staff will try to accomodate your scheduling needs or answer any questions regarding our practice. We do not have a voice mail system. An actual person (or our answering machine) answers the phone when you call. Dr. Fater can review your medical history, do an appropriate examination and help you decide on the best course of action.

We do not participate with any health insurance plans. If you have an insurance plan that will reimburse you, such as a PPO or POS, we will provide you with any information or numbers they may require.

Dr. Fater has lectures to group of physicians and lay people on topics such as "Spirituality and Wellness", "Alternative Medicine", "Medicine in Pregnancy". and "Energy Medicine". She has published articles in local magazines covering topics such as infant circumcision, optimism and how to chose an alternative medicine practitioner.

It would be a pleasure to meet you and try to help you make sense of the often confusing world of health care. It can be frustrating and frightening, but you are in charge and need to feel empowered with knowledge and support.

Testimonial:

"Dr. Fater has treated my husband, my mother and me for years. Her outstanding quality is a deep sense of caring and taking time to spend with the patient - to ask all the pertinent questions necessary to make a qualified evaluation. In this day of five-minute appointments with doctors who barely know your name, Dr. Fater is a rare phenomenon."
