Dr. Jamal Lawrence was recently featured on WSAV.com where he announced the opening of Harvest Health MD, which began offering services to the Savannah community on March 1. Last year, Lawrence was one of the three winners of SCORE’s Biz Pitch Savannah, which helped him to jumpstart his new practice.

“It allowed me to be introduced to a lot of key people in the community that align with the goals and the trajectory that I am on and trying to accomplish in terms of effecting change here in the Savannah community,” he said.

Harvest Health MD will offer health and wellness services to Savannah’s diverse community that will be based on a holistic, lifestyle-based approach to medicine. Dr. Lawrence states that:

“Lifestyle medicine looks at behaviors and behavior modification to also impact your health and not just the medical aspects,” Lawrence said.

 “I use my own lifestyle and the things that I do on a day-to-day [basis] to assist patients in making positive changes,” he said, adding, “That goes from a plant-based, whole-food diet to getting the appropriate amount of recommended exercise, to stress mitigation, sleep as well as goal-setting and mindset reframing.” 

DPC News congratulates Dr. Lawrence on his mission to improve the health of Savannah’ residents.
