The Ends of Medicine

The end of medicine is health.

Health is not secured by technique alone. It is pursued within a relationship of trust, through clinical judgment, fidelity, and care for the good of the whole person.

Christian S. Monsalve, M.D., personally provides care at Verigrate Health. A board-certified psychiatrist, he completed psychiatry residency at UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas. The physician’s task is to understand the patient’s illness, discern what may genuinely help, and accompany the patient through suffering with judgment, fidelity, and care.

Medicine does not promise human flourishing. It seeks to restore or preserve the health through which flourishing may again become possible.
