From the practitioner: About My Practice
At Atlanta Functional Medicine, we make every effort to discover the underlying cause of your medical concerns by taking an expanded history and physical exam. We utilize science based testing that goes beyond the status quo. Once causative and contributing factors are uncovered, we create a personalized treatment plan using evidence based therapies including lifestyle, nutrition, supplements and pharmaceuticals only when absolutely necessary. We practice compassionate, patient centered medicine in an effort to prevent disease, maintain optimal health and recover vitality.
We will ask that patients complete online paperwork and be prepared to spend up to two hours in our office at the first visit. Follow up visits are shorter.
From the practitioner: What Patients Can Expect
Our practitioners remain intellectually vigilant and ever open minded in order to deliver evidence based medicine through a respectful alliance with our patients. We reject arrogance in the practitioner and focus, instead on the dignity of our patients as they take responsibility for their health and its positive trajectory. Our staff is required to create an alliance with you, the patient: Your goals, your needs, and your responsibilities. We believe that by educating the patient, their support network, and ourselves that we can heal the larger community and create sustained beneficial health changes.
