About this specialty

What does a functional medicine doctor do?

Functional medicine doctors investigate the underlying causes of illness rather than simply treating symptoms, using a systems-biology approach to understand how all aspects of your health are interconnected. They typically order advanced diagnostic testing — including microbiome, hormone, and nutrient panels — to build a detailed picture of your physiology. Appointments are generally longer than standard GP visits, allowing time for a thorough health history and collaborative goal-setting. They are particularly valued by people managing complex chronic conditions such as autoimmune disease, fatigue syndromes, and hormonal disorders.
