Caduceus Medical Partners, LLC
From The Doctor
I am Dr. Michael Uphues, and I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to all our patients for their enduring support. At Caduceus Medical Partners, our mission goes beyond addressing immediate medical needs; we strive to empower individuals to reach their peak physical, mental, emotional, intuitive, and spiritual potential. With Board Certification in Family Medicine and over two decades of experience since 1995, I bring a diverse skill set to our practice. As a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, Certified Personal Trainer, and an expert in Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine with a Master's degree in Anatomy, I have also shared my knowledge by teaching Anatomy at the University of Illinois at Urbana and instructing Clinical Medicine to medical students, interns, and residents.
Currently pursuing a Fellowship in Functional and Regenerative Medicine from the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, I have also nurtured a passion for the art of magic for more than 35 years, performing internationally. Magic has provided me with profound insights into human psychology and the significance of embracing mystery in our lives. For me, magic is not about deception but about creating moments of wonder that leave a lasting impact.
In the realm of medicine, I believe in the power of empathy and human connection. It is about meeting individuals where they are in their life journey and guiding them towards self-mastery across physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions. It is a privilege to accompany my patients on this transformative path, inspiring them to reach their full potential and in turn, motivate others. Striving for self-mastery is a noble yet challenging endeavor, demanding commitment, discipline, and determination.
We eagerly anticipate our future interactions and extend our profound thanks to each and every one of you for entrusting us with your care."
