What Is Functional Medicine?

Functional medicine goes beyond treating symptoms; it seeks to identify and address the root causes of health issues. By exploring the body as a system, rather than isolated symptoms, Dr. Heather Fay takes a holistic approach to your care. This means considering your genetics, environment, and lifestyle to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored specifically to your needs.
