That’s why we started Dr. Autoimme, a fully online functional medicine practice! Read on to learn more about how it works!

What is functional medicine?

Functional medicine, also called integrative or holistic medicine, approaches a person’s health by looking beyond the physical symptoms. Because autoimmunity can manifest in different ways, some signs can be physiological, triggered by lifestyle, poor diet, medications, stress, hormone imbalances, and more. We take a deep dive into all aspects of your health, incorporating nutrition and natural therapies into a wellness plan that addresses the real issue, rather than just masking your symptoms with more medications. Autoimmune conditions are our area of expertise, and we have supported a variety of diseases, from Hashimoto’s and Graves’ to IBS, IBD, Celiac, RA, MS, lupus, and many more.

We are proud to offer 100% remote care, so no matter where you live, you can access online functional medicine and expert guidance from an autoimmune specialist. Consultations are done via Zoom, we utilize at-home testing kits, as well as unique and innovative therapies such as brain mapping, IV therapy, peptide therapy, etc. Plus, you can go a step further and complete our 30-Day DIY Reset Program which includes webinars, a recipe guide, private FB group access, a supplement starter pack, and other helpful resources.

Plus, autoimmune conditions often require specialized attention, and extra time can be wasted waiting for specialist referrals!
