Director of Integrative and Functional Cardiology at Case Integrative Health - Chicago, Illinois, United States
Revolutionizing medicine, one case at a time.Conventional medical care is primarily centered on treating symptoms. This works amazingly well for acute issues. However, if you are one of the millions of people with a chronic illness, conventional care frequently means taking a pill to mask the symptom, often creating side-effects that require additional pills. Integrative medical care, or Functional Medicine, seeks to understand the "why" underneath symptoms. Once we know why you are sick, we can begin fixing the problem at the root; unlocking your body's natural ability to heal itself.
