Integrative medicine is a personalized, science-based approach that empowers patients and practitioners to work together to address the underlying causes of disease and promote optimal wellness.
Phoenix Integrative Medical Center offers Integrative and Functional medicine services by taking a comprehensive approach with complete history and physical and functional lab testing.
The functional lab testing is able to offer specific tests that take an in depth look at gut health, micronutrient deficiencies, neurotransmitter imbalances and hormone imbalances that are not offered through conventional testing.
With that being said, Integrative and Functional medicine is usually not covered by the insurances since we take a comprehensive approach to your care and use tests that are not offered through your insurances.
By addressing the root cause of disease with our comprehensive care, patients will see improvement in their symptoms versus masking them with medication.
