Functional Medicine at Hawkins Medical & Wellness

At Hawkins Medical & Wellness, we believe healthcare should focus on more than just treating symptoms. Functional medicine takes a whole-body approach by looking for the root cause of health concerns and creating a personalized plan to help you feel your best.

What Is Functional Medicine?

Functional medicine is a patient-centered approach to healthcare that looks at how different systems of the body work together. Rather than simply treating a diagnosis, functional medicine focuses on understanding why symptoms are occurring and addressing the underlying factors that may be contributing to them.

Dr. Jeremy Hawkins takes the time to listen to your concerns, review your health history, evaluate laboratory testing, and develop a personalized plan based on your individual needs and health goals.

Who Can Benefit from Functional Medicine?

Functional medicine may be helpful for individuals who are experiencing ongoing symptoms or who want to take a more proactive approach to their health. Common concerns include:

• Fatigue or low energy
• Brain fog or difficulty concentrating
• Digestive issues
• Hormone imbalances
• Weight management concerns
• Sleep problems
• Chronic inflammation
• Frequent illness
• Nutrient deficiencies
• Stress-related health concerns
• General wellness and disease prevention



Every patient is different, which is why your treatment plan is customized specifically for you.

What to Expect

Your first appointment is designed to give Dr. Hawkins a complete picture of your health. He will discuss your symptoms, medical history, lifestyle, nutrition, sleep, stress, medications, and any previous lab work. Additional laboratory testing may be recommended when appropriate to help identify contributing factors.

Based on your evaluation, you'll receive a personalized care plan that may include nutrition guidance, lifestyle recommendations, targeted supplements, medication management when appropriate, and ongoing follow-up to monitor your progress.

The Benefits of Functional Medicine

• Improved sleep
