FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE
What Is Functional Medicine?
Functional Medicine is a personalized, science-based, patient-centered approach that addresses the underlying causes of disease rather than just the symptoms.
Functional medicine utilizes a systematic evaluation of the patient; promoting balance and optimal wellness.
Functional medicine doctors examine each patient's genetic, biochemical, and lifestyle factors to implement individualized treatment plans.
