What is Functional Medicine?

Functional medicine is an evolving practice of medicine that better addresses the healthcare needs of the 21st century. By shifting from 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. Dr. Mark Stengler spends time listening to his patients and gathering histories, which helps him look at the interactions among genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that can influence long-term health and complex chronic diseases.
