Functional Medicine: Root-Cause Care, Personalized for You

Functional Medicine is a science-based, patient-centered approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing the underlying causes of disease. Rather than relying solely on medications to manage symptoms, we work to restore balance in your body through nutrition, lifestyle changes, targeted supplements, and advanced lab testing

GI-MAP Testing: A Window Into Your Gut Health

The GI-MAP (Gastrointestinal Microbial Assay Plus) is one of the most powerful tools in Functional Medicine, offering a deep look into the health of your gut microbiome. The gut plays a major role in everything from digestion to immune function and even mood. If your gut is out of balance, it can affect nearly every other system in the body.

What GI-MAP can help uncover:

  • Bacterial and yeast overgrowth
  • Parasites and pathogens
  • Gut-brain axis imbalances
  • Immune system function
  • Enzyme levels and digestive health
  • Leaky gut and inflammation markers
  • and more!

We use GI-MAP results to build a custom healing plan that includes dietary changes, targeted supplementation, and support for the gut lining—so you can feel better from the inside out.

Frequently Asked Questions

Functional Medicine focuses on finding the root cause of your symptoms by looking at how all systems in the body are connected—rather than just treating surface-level issues with prescriptions.

Anyone struggling with chronic symptoms like fatigue, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, or inflammation who hasn’t found answers through conventional care may benefit from a Functional Medicine approach.

GI-MAP is a stool test that gives a detailed look at your gut health, including bacteria, parasites, yeast, inflammation, and immune markers. It helps us understand what’s happening in your digestive system so we can treat issues at the source.

Yes. These are often signs of underlying gut imbalances, inflammation, or hormone dysfunction—all of which we address through personalized care and advanced testing.

Most Functional Medicine labs, including GI-MAP, are not typically covered by insurance, but we offer affordable self-pay pricing and will go over costs with you before anything is ordered.

We offer a range of functional labs including hormone panels, GI-MAP testing, food sensitivity testing, micronutrient analysis, and inflammation markers—all designed to give us a full picture of your health.

Many tests, like the GI-MAP, are at-home kits that you can complete and mail in. Others, like bloodwork, can be done in-office or at a nearby lab location depending on the test.

Most GI-MAP results are returned within 10–14 business days. Other lab tests vary, but we’ll always let you know what to expect and follow up as soon as results are in.

We’ll schedule a follow-up visit to go over your results in detail and create a personalized care plan that may include nutrition changes, supplements, and lifestyle recommendations.

Functional Medicine is great for both. We help people with chronic health concerns as well as those who simply want to optimize their wellness, energy, and long-term health.
