A Deeper Look Into Your Health

 

At Whitehouse Family Medical, integrative health means going beyond symptom relief — we explore why you’re feeling the way you do. Our approach blends the best of conventional medicine with evidence-based functional testing, nutrition, lifestyle optimization and personalized care. Functional testing looks beyond basic labs to identify imbalances, nutrient deficiencies, toxic burden, hormone fluctuations, and more. These tests help us detect patterns that often go undiagnosed in conventional care, including inflammation, stress response, gut dysfunction, and metabolic disruption.

What is functional medicine?

Functional medicine looks beyond symptoms to identify and treat the root causes of illness. We combine advanced lab testing, nutrition, and personalized treatment to restore balance and health.

What types of lab testing do you offer?

We offer both traditional in-office lab draws and specialized tests like hormone panels (DUTCH), gut microbiome testing, heavy metal analysis, and food sensitivity panels.

Are functional medicine services covered by insurance?

Some services and labs may be covered, but many advanced functional tests and treatments are self-pay. We’re happy to review coverage and pricing before you start.

How long does a typical functional medicine visit take?

Our initial visit usually lasts 45–60 minutes to allow for a thorough review of your health history and lab results. Many times this is done after you come in for a physical exam, complete traditional bloodwork and then the follow up functional testing is added on if needed for unanswered questions that may remain. In that case the testing can be added on without you present as many are mailed directly to your home for completion. Once these labs return the labs can be reviewed via our virtual telemedicine portal and those usually last 45-60 minutes.

Every test is reviewed by your provider and integrated into a custom wellness plan that may include nutrition therapy, supplements, detox protocols, or hormone support.
