Welcome to No Barriers Medicine and the Practice of Bruce L. Feldman, M.D.
Why would you stop looking for answers to health issues or preventative care, when there are so many alternatives to consider? Even ideas that may seem outlandish—like every major innovation in history—can be treasure troves of solutions that can impact your life.
At FeldMed we don’t stop looking, and instead combine the conventional medicine you may be used to with both eastern medicine that almost 5 billion people consider mainstream, and new technologies and thinking that one day are certain to become standard practice. It’s a different viewpoint on what makes you tick and can help you to live the life you deserve.

FeldMed… the best of all worlds.
FeldMed is Dr. Bruce Feldman’s own blend of many different disciplines that promote healing and prevent disease. Unlike the variety of disciplines and schools of thought with names as confusing as Alternative Medicine, Functional Medicine, Integrated Medicine, Regenerative Medicine and even Western and Eastern Medicine, Dr. Feldman pulls together what he feels are the best parts of each to create a practice that is singular in its approach.
We all have filters. Those filters have real value -- if we didn't have filters we would be quickly overwhelmed by all the inputs around us. As such, we only really absorb a small fraction of all the information that bombards us constantly. But how do we make those choices?
People are fond of saying "I have to see it to believe it". It's not true. Chances are that if you don't believe it (or believe in it)... you will look right by it and never actually see it.
YOU ONLY SEE WHAT YOU ALREADY BELIEVE. As humans, one of our strongest drives is what's called "confirmation bias". That means you look for things that confirm what you already believe, often times completely overlooking the contrary. Be careful - this will affect your whole life and can really skew how you see yourself and those around you. It will absolutely isolate you from alternative views and further close your mind (think the Google and Facebook algorithms -- they only show you what agrees with your already held views). Open your mind ... see alternatives ... solutions might be right in front of you!
“If someone SAYS they have all the answers, they probably don’t.”

What our patients have to say.
“When you need the personal care and attention, including a home visit, Dr. Bruce Feldman is the physician for you. The home-based concept avoids the necessity of traveling to a physician’s office, and you are not sitting in a waiting room with sick people. I recommend this practice for its detailed knowledge of the patient as an individual”

Having access to a Doctor you can reach and you can count on is a luxury today. My family has a few scares and has needed medical advice and explanations of information that otherwise was technically confusing. Getting up in the morning, not feeling well and resolving and medicating before 9AM was astounding especially because Bruce was in Florida with his family. Every time I have had a concern, Bruce has been there as Dale Carnegie said, "Morning, Noon and Dinner". Thank you, Bruce.
