What is your definition of Functional Medicine?
Functional Medicine focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of many problematic symptoms so the patient doesn’t continue just treating the symptoms.
The best part about an appointment?
Being able to spend as much time as you need with your doctor. Also the ease of calling in and actually speaking with one of our team members personally and being able to message your doctor directly through the portal. My advice is to make sure you are able to log in and use your patient portal.
