🌿 Our Clinical Focus: Digestion, Stress, and the Nervous System
Â
Your gut and your brain are deeply connected — when one is out of balance, the other feels it too. That’s why our team is dedicated to helping patients who struggle with bloating, IBS, SIBO, anxiety, fatigue, and brain fog.
We bring together advanced lab testing, nervous system regulation, and functional medicine care to restore balance from the inside out.
We do not offer hormone replacement therapy or weight loss programs — instead, we specialize in the gut–brain connection.

"I have had more providers than I can count, and she is the first to make me truly feel heard and understood. She really takes the time and the appropriate and grounding attitude and intricate direction in treatment. I feel for the first time in my life, I had a provider that cared about ALL parts of me, and not just about one time period but my past present and future. She is extremely punctual, supportive, and professional. Iook forward to being her patient as long as possible! I highly recommend her to anyone who has a complicated case they want to truly dissect and heal."

What is Functional Medicine?
The institute of Functional Medicine defines Functional Medicine as
"a systems biology–based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease. Each symptom or differential diagnosis may be one of many contributing to an individual’s illness."
This means we're looking for the cause of your symptoms, not looking to give you a pill to mask your symptoms.Â
Â
Please note: Our practice provides specialized functional medicine services and is not a substitute for primary care. We recommend all patients maintain a relationship with a primary care provider for routine screenings, vaccinations, and urgent care needs.
What about Insurance Coverage?
Many people with chronic illnesses learn about the benefits of functional medicine, only to find out that most functional medicine providers DON'T accept insurance.Â
At Functional Medicine of Delaware, we believe in Affordable Holistic Healthcare for those who need it most.Â
This means that we accept MOSTÂ major health insurances so that YOUÂ have better access to care. Please call our offices to verify if we are in network with your insurance plan if you have any questions.Â
