My Approach
Together, we will create a partnership that first examines and improves on the four core sources of healthspan: nutrition, movement, sleep, and mental resiliency.
​
The importance of sleep to a myriad of long-term wellness outcomes is becoming increasingly evident.
Mental resiliency is often under-appreciated as a prime driver of living a long and healthful life.
What people are saying
"I started working with Dr. Falcone to manage symptoms of PCOS. I had fatigue, swelling, was pre-diabetic, and completely stopped getting my menstrual cycle.
Dr. Falcone is everything you could ask for in a doctor- he’s kind, caring, a great listener, and really gets to know you as a whole person. He’s also very easy to communicate with over the portal. I love that he explains the WHY behind every test ordered, the results you get, and every part of your protocol.
Now, six months later, I am feeling AMAZING! I finally have the energy to get back to doing the things I love. I’m able to strength train and hike, my swelling has gone down, I’m no longer prediabetic, and I’m having regular cycles. I’m so grateful for Dr Falcone’s help!

"My experience with Dignity Integrative Health and Wellness and Dr. Falcone have been nothing short of life-changing. His careful diagnosis and treatment approach have been different for each family member, but the results are consistent.
My mood is more stable, my energy is better and the most notable transformation is that I lost a significant amount of weight. I am back in the correct range of BMI, my cholesterol and blood pressure are back where they should be and my weight has been stable for six months.
The important point to emphasize here is that I am not dieting. Dieting has never worked for me. Following Dr. Falcone's treatment plan has led me to a place where I feel my body is working more efficiently and I feel healthy. A truly life-changing experience for me and my family. Thank you Dr. Falcone!

"I am a 66 year old man, generally healthy but dealing with risk factors such as blood pressure, cholesterol, kidneys and borderline diabetes.
I've bounced around a few practices in the local area, usually getting decent service, but only after I came in with an issue. With Dr. Falcone I was proactively interviewed, examined and then put through a battery of tests... Further I was highly encouraged by Angelo to shed some weight and to modify my diet. With the help of his on staff "coach", I was able to lose almost 10% of my body weight and keep it off.
Overall, it is just refreshing to have Dr. Falcone looking after my medical and health needs, knowing that he will do whatever it takes to help. I highly recommend him as an outstanding medical professional.

"From my first meeting with Dr. Falcone, I was assured by his gentle manner, active listening, and thoughtful questions. He explained the concept of "healthspan" and his plan for addressing my concerns. Each step of the way he was proactive and engaged.
​
Since following the prescribed course of action from Dignity Integrative, I have seen a number of positive changes, including a markedly improved sense of well-being and clear-headedness, weight loss, and blood pressure averaging 100/60 (which I have not seen in years).
​
I praise God for Dr. Falcone and Dignity Integrative for the quality of health that I have received under their care, and highly recommend them!

Meet Angelo Falcone, MD
Doctor of Integrative Medicine
After more than three decades practicing medicine, I started Dignity Integrative based on a simple belief — that promoting health and wellness has to be a partnership. I approach you with dignity as an individual, and you partner with me on a plan to ensure a long and healthful life.
I started my career as an emergency physician. I worked in a busy Maryland ER, eventually founding and leading a group that grew to care for 500,000 patients annually in three states. I took great pride in always putting our values front and center, and I loved caring for patients, then as now. But I also grew to understand intimately how traditional medicine has failed to address our country’s most pressing chronic medical, social, and psychological problems — and how we in the medical profession have failed to treat people as people, rather than as a collection of symptoms.
Now in my 50s, I decided to complete a Fellowship in Integrative Medicine from the Academy of Integrative Health and Medicine in San Diego, and launched Dignity Integrative. I believe both integrative and functional medicine provide the framework for addressing the root sources of health and wellness that traditional medicine lacks. Welcome. I’m glad you’re here.

Who I Work With
I can help with:
Every person should be interested in improving healthspan and avoiding chronic conditions as we age. Dementia, chronic arthritis and decreased mobility have all been shown to be modifiable conditions when using an integrative approach.
Longevity
Digestion
Chronic abdominal discomfort can suggest the need for a range of changes to diet and nutrition. Concerned about SIBO? Go here.
Diabetes
Integrative medicine can reverse the progression of diabetes and lessen the need for typical drugs.
Stress
Together, we develop a plan to reduce stress and improve your mental resiliency.
Fatigue
Chronic fatigue can have many causes, including some often missed by traditional medicine. We work together to find the true source.
Heart disease
Heart disease is too often treated as the inevitable result of aging, with pharmaceutical intervention as the only treatment.
Chronic Pain
The integrative and functional medicine approaches to pain management can improve outcomes and lessen reliance on addictive pain medications.
Headaches
Taking a holistic approach to headache management can lessen frequency and intensity of episodes.
