Functional Medicine
Functional Medicine is science-based health care that focuses on how the ways we live and what we eat can lead to disease.
The Vanderbilt Functional Medicine Clinic uses one-on-one telehealth or in-clinic visits and shared group televisits to learn what brings on your symptoms. Our goals are to improve your health and quality of life, help you prevent health problems, balance your body’s physical systems, and provide you with tools to learn what helps your body.
