Advanced Physical & Our Functional Medicine Treatments
We utilize functional medicine because our doctors need to know how every aspect of our patient’s life that may be contributing to their health issue(s). When we both examine and talk with the patient, we gain valuable information that leads us to the source of disease. This viewpoint about health empowers our doctors to provide patients with workable solutions in the clinical setting and teaches them how to take an active role in the care of their health. This essential form of medicine replaces the outdated disease-centered standard of care and shifts to an action based plan specific to each individual’s needs. Prescribing medication is only a temporary solution and has the potential to create even further problems such as substance abuse and withdrawals.
