Finding a qualified quality functional medicine physician seems like the way to go but they don't accept insurance
I understand this but only the wealthy can afford this.

I agree with your concern regarding the high cost of functional medicine. While setting prices for my coaching program, I also came across the charges for functional medicine sessions. To ensure affordability, I took into consideration the fact that health insurance may not cover these sessions, and set reasonable prices accordingly.

I'm not wealthy but I can afford it. I'm 75 and on Medicare but the extra money for a functional medicine doctor is well worth it. What good is having Medicare pay for a regular MD who doesn't do anything to help you and might actually make you worse?
