Functional & integrative medicine is a patient-centered approach to chronic disease management and well-being. It seeks to answer the question, “Why are you ill?” so that you can receive individualized care.
 

As a functional & integrative medicine provider I spend time listening to you, gathering your medical history. I use this information to identify the root cause(s) of the illness, including triggers such as hormone imbalance, poor nutrition, stress, toxins, allergens, genetics, and your microbiome (the bacteria living in and on your body).
 

Once I identify the triggers, I customize a roadmap for you. Your individualized roadmap addresses many aspects of your life, from physical needs, including nutrition, balancing of hormones, exercise and sleep, to mental and emotional stressors related to social, work and community life.
