Are you struggling with depression? Have you been through different treatment options but still do not feel well? If so, you are not alone. As a family physician and a functional medicine practitioner treating patients for over 26 years, I have seen many patients just like you. In my functional medicine practice, I specifically treat patients with depression and those who have treatment-resistant depression. This groundbreaking field of medicine focuses on getting to the root of why people have certain illnesses and diseases and uses an individualized approach to treatment.
Today, I would like to share my journey into functional medicine. About 13 years ago, I was profoundly fatigued and struggling in my work and home life. I went to see several doctors, and they ran tests, but could not identify anything wrong. They all attributed my symptoms to being overworked. I knew there was more to it than that, so I went to see a functional medicine practitioner. After testing and evaluating me, they discovered that I had adrenal dysfunction. The functional medicine practitioner created a customized treatment plan which included appropriate lifestyle management, diet, and supplements. Within a matter of weeks, my health began to turn around. I was able to live my life once again.
So, how can functional medicine help you? As I mentioned earlier, I treat patients with depression and treatment-resistant depression (as well as those with anxiety disorders). When I was working in my traditional family practice, before I started incorporating functional medicine, it was always a struggle to take care of patients that had reached the bottom. I could not help them anymore because I did not know what else to do. Having had my own experience with functional medicine, I found that it offered a solution for many of my patients, but specifically my patients who struggled with depression. Functional medicine has been able to help a lot of those patients that conventional treatment has not helped.
If you are struggling with depression, have been to doctors, and have tried medications only to backslide into depression again, I would like you to strongly consider giving functional medicine a try. I would be happy to talk to you about the program that I offer, which uses functional medicine to treat depression and treatment-resistant depression. Through lab testing and evaluation, let us try to get to the root cause of your depression and create a customized plan so that you can regain your life.
