About

At NY Center for Integrative Health, six clinicians bring together naturopathic medicine, functional medicine, Chinese medicine, and mind-body medicine under one roof. Founder and Director Dr. Robert Kachko built the practice around a single guiding principle: sustainable healing of mind and body. The team focuses on activating the body's own capacity for self-healing. They treat the whole person, not a list of symptoms.

The practice sees many patients with complex chronic conditions who have not found resolution elsewhere. First visits run 90 minutes, giving clinicians and patients genuine time together. Follow-up visits last 30 to 45 minutes. Diagnostic tools go well beyond standard labs, including microbiome analysis, SIBO breath testing, and AI-powered genomic screening. The practice also offers IV therapy, botanical medicine, Somatic Experiencing for trauma resolution, and Ondamed pulsed electromagnetic field therapy. Patients access care at two locations: 345 7th Avenue in Manhattan and 1200 High Ridge Road in Stamford, Connecticut, home of the Connecticut Center for Integrative Medicine.
