Functional Medicine is a way of looking at your health and focusing on why you are sick, not just what diagnosis you have been labeled. Instead of just treating your symptoms (headaches, IBS, hormones, chronic fatigue, etc.), functional medicine is trying to figure out what is causing the problem, not just cover up the symptoms with medication.

Doctors of functional medicine look at the entire body as one connected system, not just a collection of seperate systems. These physicans look at enviromental toxins, nutrional deficiencies, balances between good and bad bacteria in the gut, and autoimmnue responses.

Functional medicine does analyze traditional blood work just like what is taken at your regular medical provider's office, but they also use more advanced labs to measure the physiology needed for your body to maintain health.

What does it cost? Initial consultation and review of prevoius last two years of medical records is $250. After your initial in person consultation additional lab testing may be needed to get to the foundation of your problem. Follow-up visits are via telehealth for patient scheduling convenience.

To schedule your first functional medicine consultation, please call 615.984.7451 and mention functional medicine.
