Research

One of our cultural tenants is innovation, whereby we ask ourselves, “Is there a better way to do this?” What happens when certain clinicians at Vivo Cura Health ask this question? Clinical research.

Here is a list of some of the research that has been done by members of our clinical team that have shaped the way we deliver care to our patients. Filter by condition or treatment/theme and check back often as we will post new published research here.
