From the practitioner: About My Practice

April Vukelic, D.O., IMFCP, ReCODE 2.0 Certified Physician, is quadruple board certified by The Institute for Functional Medicine, American Board of Family Medicine, American Board of Preventive Medicine, and The American Board of Addiction Medicine.

From the practitioner: What Patients Can Expect

Have you been diagnosed with small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), “brain fog,” fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, daily migraines, irritable bowel syndrome, adrenal fatigue, mast cell activation syndrome or multiple chemical sensitivity? What if multiple diagnoses have one root cause that no one has evaluated?

Doctors can’t diagnose an illness if they don’t know it exists.

Are you tired after a full night’s “rest”?

If you exert yourself, do you have fatigue for 2-3 days afterward?

Are you sensitive to everything and avoid perfume and detergent smell in the grocery store?

Are you exposed to a damp basement or leaks or flooding at work?

Environment may be the answer.
