About Us
Why Choose Us
East Coast Functional Medicine offers comprehensive lab testing and treatment strategies supported by scientific research and evidence based clinical applications that have been proven to offer excellent alternatives to mainstream medicine.
How We Can Help You
Many of our patients say that "they have tried everything" before finding us. Our doctors are trained to find the cause of your condition, not just treat the symptoms. This approach addresses the most important question that has never been answered..."WHY do I have this condition?"
See the Difference
Once the cause of your signs and symptoms has been identified, our doctors set to the task of halting further suffering by focusing on the mechanisms and pathways that promote healing at the most basic structural biological levels to achieve long-lasting, life-changing results.
Our Services
DIAGNOSTIC LAB TESTING
At East Coast Functional Medicine we review all previous diagnostic studies (especially lab results) and will order any necessary additional lab tests, including specialty tests like immune panels, stool testing and hormone panels, to name a few. Comprehensive analysis is the standard that makes our work exceptional.
TREATMENTS
Our Functional Medicine Clinicians design patient-specific treatment plans based on your clinical history, your presenting issues, your diagnostic test results and your desired goals. Treatment Plans consist of three primary components: Lifestyle, Diet, and Nutrients.
RESOURCES
The main objective at East Coast Functional Medicine is to offer answers and provide informational resources on health and hope to people who may have been suffering with conditions that have perplexed their medical and alternative healthcare providers. Maintaining your health is a team effort and a journey that is different for every patient. Which is why every patient is evaluated for your body's functional level at whatever state of your life journey health needs are. Together, we will prevail over what may be causing you and your body stress by finding the cause, eliminating the triggers, and educating you on how to move forward in health.
