Frequently Asked Questions about Functional Medicine Visits

**What is functional medicine?**
Functional medicine is a holistic approach to health care that aims to identify and address the root causes of disease. It views the body as one integrated system, rather than a collection of independent organs divided by medical specialties. This approach takes into account the entire history, lifestyle, and unique health profile of each patient to propose a treatment plan.

**How does a functional medicine consultation differ from a regular doctor’s visit?**
Unlike traditional 15-minute doctor visits, a functional medicine consultation is thorough and comprehensive, often lasting an hour or more. During your first visit, the practitioner will explore your detailed medical history, lifestyle behaviors, diet, stress levels, and more. This in-depth discussion helps in crafting a highly personalized health plan.

**What conditions can functional medicine treat?**
Functional medicine is particularly effective in treating chronic diseases such as autoimmune disorders, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, metabolic syndromes, and more. It also focuses on preventive care and wellness, aiming to optimize overall health rather than merely addressing symptoms.

I don’t live in Tennessee. Can I still become a patient and do you offer virtual visits?

Yes! We are licensed to see patients in the following states: AZ, CO, FL, IL, KY, MN, MT, NM, NV, OR, TN, WA.

**What should I bring to my first functional medicine appointment?**
For your initial appointment, bring any relevant medical records, a list of medications and supplements you are currently taking, any recent lab work, and a written history of your health concerns and symptoms. You may also be asked to fill out a comprehensive health questionnaire before your visit.

**How long does it take to see results with functional medicine?**
The time frame for seeing results in functional medicine can vary depending on the individual and their specific health issues. Some patients notice improvements within a few weeks, while others may see a gradual change over several months. Functional medicine is focused on long-term, sustainable health solutions rather than quick fixes.

**Will my insurance cover functional medicine?**

**Can I continue to see my regular doctor while undergoing treatment?**

It is recommended that you maintain your relationship with your regular doctor while undergoing functional medicine treatments, as this holistic approach is best when integrated with all aspects of your health care.
