The Bale Doneen Method
A clinically proven, evidence-based approach to preventing heart attacks and strokes by identifying and treating the root causes of arterial disease.
The Bale Doneen Method represents a paradigm shift in cardiovascular medicine. Developed by Bradley Bale, MD and Amy Doneen, DNP, this method treats arterial disease like the medical fire it is—identifying not just whether you have the disease, but precisely what is causing it in your body and how to extinguish it.
Unlike the standard of care, which focuses on managing risk factors like cholesterol and blood pressure, the Bale Doneen Method directly assesses the arteries themselves and addresses the root causes of disease, including chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, genetic predisposition, and even oral-systemic health connections.
Dr. Sachs is among a select group of physicians nationally who have been trained and certified in this revolutionary methodology. His patients benefit from a level of cardiovascular risk assessment and prevention that is simply not available in traditional practice.
How the Bale Doneen Method Works
Assess
Comprehensive evaluation of arterial health using advanced imaging and biomarker analysis to determine the presence and extent of disease.
Identify Root Causes
Systematic investigation of the specific factors driving disease in your arteries—from inflammation to genetics to oral health.
Treat the Fire
Targeted interventions addressing each identified root cause, treating the disease process itself rather than just managing risk factors.
Monitor & Optimize
Ongoing reassessment using objective measurements to ensure disease stabilization and guide continued treatment optimization.
Standard of Care vs. Bale Doneen
Standard Approach
- Manages risk factors (cholesterol, BP)
- Waits for symptoms to appear
- One-size-fits-all guidelines
- Limited arterial assessment
- Reactive treatment model
Root Cause Approach
- Identifies and treats root causes of disease
- Detects disease before symptoms develop
- Precision, personalized protocols
- Direct arterial health assessment
- Proactive disease prevention and stabilization
