About

Dr. James earned his medical degree from the Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine in East Lansing, MI. He completed a residency in Family Medicine at the McLaren Bay Region Family Medicine Residency in Bay City Michigan.

Dr. James's clinical interests include helping the patient reach their health goals and fully understand the natural order of their body to help maintain optimal function for years to come. When asked about his philosophy of care, he had this to say, 

“I believe the aim of medicine should be addressing the underlying cause of the diseases. I strive to take time to help my patient fully understand the disease so they can better equip themselves to fight it. I work with patients not only to treat their acute health conditions, but to prevent the advancement and recurrence of them.”

When I first met Dr. James (4 years ago) I wasn't sure he would be a good fit for me. However, after some time I could tell he was a great doctor who knows what he's doing. Despite being "younger" he is confident, professional and willing to help. Patients who have a desire to stay healthy and be on top of preventative care would do well with Dr. James.
