Your labs came back normal. You still feel off.
That is one of the most common reasons people come to us. Functional medicine looks at how your systems are working together, not just whether each number lands inside a reference range.
Functional medicine is an approach, not a separate set of treatments. Standard lab ranges are built to catch disease, so it is possible for every number to come back inside range while you still do not feel right. We look at where you sit inside those ranges, how your systems interact, and what has changed for you over time. Then we test where the story points, rather than testing everything at once.

Every plan starts with a 90-minute first visit to map your history, symptoms, and goals. From there we choose the testing that will actually shape your plan.
What treatment looks like
Whatever the testing points to: targeted nutrition, specific supplements, lifestyle changes you can actually keep, and repeat testing to confirm it worked. Naturopathic doctors in Minnesota do not prescribe medication, so when prescription care is the right call, Dr. Abbie coordinates it with a partnering provider.
How long it takes
Your first visit runs 90 minutes, which is long enough to get the whole history rather than the last six weeks of it. Many patients notice changes within 4 to 8 weeks, with deeper shifts over 3 to 6 months.
When conventional medical management is needed, Dr. Abbie collaborates with partnering providers. Our care complements your medical team, it doesn't replace it.

Testing that goes a layer deeper.
