What is Functional Medicine?
Functional medicine is a patient-centered, science-based approach that empowers patients and practitioners to work together to address the underlying causes of disease and promote optimal wellness. By shifting the traditional disease-centered focus of medical practice to a more patient-centered approach, functional medicine addresses the whole person, not just an isolated set of symptoms. This approach considers the complex interactions among genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that can influence long-term health and chronic disease.
How It Works:
Functional medicine practitioners like Dr. Janusz Mejer, MD, take the time to listen to your history and look at the interactions among genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that can influence long-term health and complex, chronic disease. This holistic view allows us to identify and treat the root causes of disease.
