Conditions
Functional Medicine treats the whole person by evaluating the patient’s lifestyle and overall health to effectively identify the root cause and risk factors behind the condition.
Dr. Miller can work with you to determine your individual nutritional needs and help you stay healthy, which can lower your risk for future chronic conditions. Most chronic diseases are caused by a system or systems in the body that is underperforming. Dr. Miller can help determine what may be causing this sub-optimal function (e.g. inflammation, stress, nutrient deficiency) through lab testing and consultation. He will help you address it through patient specific nutrition and lifestyle recommendations, which may improve your condition and/or reduce your risk for developing chronic disease.
