About Matthew Balls and Banner Safety Practices

Care Philosophy

My approach to care is focusing on a whole body approach. Trying to work with the patient and find out what in their life may be causing some of their medical problems as well as what medical therapy we could use to help them achieve better health. My practice has a focus on preventative health, women's health, and pediatrics with a goal of total family care.

Preventative care
Women's health
Pediatrics
Dermatological procedures
Osteopathic Manual Therapy (OMT)

Interests & Activities

My background is in geology and I enjoy rock collecting, hiking, and camping. I also like to work on woodworking projects and enjoy working on renovations. I am an avid gardener and try to set up a garden plot wherever I live.

All Banner facilities are pleased to provide interpretation services to our patients and their companions for no charge - just ask when you arrive.
