From the practitioner: About My Practice

Dr. Staid uses a functional medicine evaluation and cutting-edge diagnostic tools to get to the root causes of a patient's medical concerns and chronic health problems. Her approach is to systematically restore a patient's own innate balance by carefully reviewing their history, diagnostic tests, and wishes. She then carefully crafts patient-specific treatment protocol that addresses the cause of a patient's illness rather than prescribing for symptoms. Protocols may include whole food diets, targeted nutrient repletion (PO and IV), gut and hormonal re-balancing regimens, detoxification protocols, stress management and/or psychological therapies to restore a patient's health and vitality.

From the practitioner: What Patients Can Expect

Dr. Staid with her undergraduate degree in Nutritional Sciences and her medical training in Internal Medicine has been practicing Integrative Functional Medicine for over 18 years, so a patient should expect to find an experienced partner in optimizing their health. Patients from their very first encounter should expect to feel heard, cared about and empowered by personalized care that focuses on restoring health and well-being.
