Functional Medicine

What is Functional Medicine?

Functional medicine is a type of care that looks for the true cause of symptoms or problems. Rather than just treating the surface issues, we strive to find the underlying issues that are causing the symptoms. We work with our patients to find the root cause and improve their overall health. We consider various factors such as diet, lifestyle, medication, family and personal history, environment, occupation, and stress levels when determining the best treatment plan for each patient.

How are the visits structured?

At our clinic, we start by reviewing your health history, medications, lifestyle, and other important factors. The practitioner may need to run tests and do other exams before or during your first appointment. After the initial visit, the practitioner creates a personalized health plan based on the information gathered, lab results, your health goals, and standard practices. This plan includes recommendations for lifestyle changes, nutrition, supplements, medication, and other methods of care.

Functional medicine cost

Some insurance companies will pay for a portion of the functional medicine consults and treatments. However, many insurance plans do not cover Functional Medicine. Absolute has affordable pricing for the services because we believe everyone should have access to quality care.
