    Dr. Gingerich has been interested and helpful in keeping my chronic pain meds in-house! By doing this my stress levels have been much easier to deal with! I have delt with chronic pain since my 21st birthday. I am now 65 and have been on Morphine for almost 30 year's. Dr Gingerich does not make me feel like a drug seeker, he is happy for me because we have found a functional medicine that keeps me alive. I cannot say how very much he and the staff at Corewell Healthcare Ionia has met to our lives!
