Integrative and Functional Medicine

Functional Medicine treats the body as an interconnected system to uncover and address the root cause of illness instead of treating only the downstream symptoms.

It is a paradigm in which we view the patient and their body as an intricate network of systems, each communicating closely with one another. This process requires longer visits to understand your life story and the use of cutting-edge testing to evaluate your condition(s) thoroughly.

Integrative medicine includes all proven healing modalities that promote health and wellness in a particular individual.

Functional Medicine and Integrative Medicine Treatment plans address lifestyle habits, environmental and genetic factors, and nutritional deficiencies and include collaboration with a health coach.

How we are different

The typical Physician (PCP) carries ~2,500 patients and spends just ~10 minutes per visit. They move quickly from patient to patient, with little time to understand their unique needs. Even a concierge physician typically has around 600 patients. Conversely, your doctor at PrimeHealth will never have more than 100 patients, your initial visit is 120 minutes, and you’ll receive ~10 hours of face time with your provider every year.

We believe it is integral to your health for your doctor to understand you, sincerely care for you, and have as much time as needed to keep you on the path to achieving your goals.

Further, while many medical practices strive to give patients more time and attention, the medical care provided is mostly conventional and therefore geared toward symptom management.

Functional Medicine Approach

In addition to conventional medicine, we offer an Integrative and Functional Medicine approach. Rather than treating symptoms alone, we aim to find, address and resolve root causes using the best of what medical technology has to offer.

We treat each patient in the most effective and least harmful way possible and focus on optimizing health and preventing disease so that you can live life to the fullest.
