Think for a moment about your last doctor visit… How much time did you spend with the doctor? 15 minutes is the national average. In that short time, did your doctor go over your diet? Ask you about your physical activity routine? Or discuss how different functions in the body are related?

Most of you will answer no to these questions. This is what makes functional medicine practitioners so unique. They spend time with their patients listening to their histories and examining the interactions among genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that can influence long-term health and complex, chronic disease!
