Functional Medicine in Las Vegas

Find the Cause. Treat the System. Change the Trajectory.
Functional medicine is a science-based, deeply personalized approach to healthcare that investigates the root causes of disease rather than simply managing symptoms. At More Than Medical Wellness in Las Vegas, NV, our functional medicine–certified providers use advanced diagnostics, comprehensive health history review, and longer consultations to understand why you feel the way you do — then build a plan that addresses it upstream instead of medicating the endpoint.

The Approach

What Is Functional Medicine?

Conventional medicine asks what you have. Functional medicine asks why you have it — and what can be done to change that.

SYSTEMS

Systems-biology thinking

Symptoms are read as signals from an interconnected system, not isolated faults.

+
DATA

Advanced diagnostics

Gut, hormonal, metabolic, nutritional, immune, and genetic testing where indicated.

+
PARTNERSHIP

Active participation

Your involvement is not just encouraged — it is expected and valued.

Functional medicine recognises patients as unique individuals shaped by genetics, environment, nutrition, stress, and lifestyle. It is grounded in science — drawing on the same diagnostic tools, laboratory testing, and clinical reasoning as mainstream medicine, while integrating advances in nutritional biochemistry, genomics, gut microbiome research, and systems biology. Conventional medicine typically identifies symptoms, matches them to a diagnosis, and prescribes treatment to control those symptoms. At More Than Medical Wellness we invest the time to understand your diet, stress load, sleep quality, hormonal status, gut health, genetics, and environmental exposures — then design a treatment plan that addresses your health at its roots. It is a collaborative model by design: the plan only works if it fits the life you actually live.
Clinical Applications

What Functional Medicine Can Help With

Chronic symptoms rarely have a single cause. Fatigue, weight that will not move, gut trouble, mood changes, and inflammation are usually downstream of several upstream drivers acting together — diet, stress, sleep debt, hormonal decline, nutrient gaps, gut dysfunction, and environmental exposure. Functional medicine is built to find and address those drivers rather than manage the symptom list.

Our providers commonly work with patients experiencing

  • 01

    Chronic fatigue and energy dysfunction

  • 02

    Hormonal imbalances in men and women

  • 03

    Gut and digestive health issues

  • 04

    Metabolic dysfunction and insulin resistance

  • 05

    Autoimmune conditions

  • 06

    Chronic inflammation

  • 07

    Thyroid dysfunction

  • 08

    Cognitive decline and brain fog

  • 09

    Mood disorders, anxiety, and depression

  • 10

    Cardiovascular risk factors

  • 11

    Nutritional deficiencies

Testing may include gut and microbiome assessment, adrenal and cortisol function, comprehensive hormone and nutritional panels, immunological markers, genetic screening, and advanced cardiovascular and metabolic labs — selected based on your history rather than ordered by default. The functional medicine framework is the spine of everything we do, integrating directly with peptide therapy, IV hydration therapy, personalized nutrition, medical weight loss, and regenerative medicine.

The Difference

Functional vs. Conventional Care

Same science and same lab work — a different question, a longer appointment, and a plan built around upstream drivers.

What we investigate
Diet & nutrients Gut health Hormones Sleep & stress Genetics Exposures
Conventional appointments are typically brief and symptom-focused: identify the complaint, match it to a diagnosis, prescribe something to control it. That model is genuinely good at acute problems and genuinely poor at chronic ones. Functional medicine involves longer, more comprehensive consultations aimed at understanding your full health context and identifying the upstream drivers producing your symptoms.
Functional medicine is not alternative medicine. It uses conventional science, evidence-based reasoning, and the same diagnostic tools as mainstream medicine — the difference is in how they are applied. And it works well alongside your existing care: you do not need to leave your current physician, and we coordinate with other providers when it serves your outcome.

Your active participation is not just encouraged — it is expected and valued.

Your First Visit

What to Expect at Your Consultation

Expect a detailed review of your full health history, diet, lifestyle, stress levels, sleep quality, medications, and supplements — followed by a collaborative conversation about your goals and concerns. This is a longer appointment than you are probably used to, and that is deliberate: the history is where most root causes are actually found. Advanced lab work may be ordered at the end of the visit based on what emerges.
Once results return, your provider walks you through what the data shows and builds your plan — which may combine nutrition, targeted supplementation, hormone optimization, peptide therapy, IV nutrient support, and lifestyle change. Some patients notice improvements in energy, mood, and symptoms within weeks. More significant improvement in long-standing chronic conditions typically develops over several months of consistent care.

Frequently Asked Questions

Functional medicine, answered.

The questions we hear most from patients considering functional medicine at More Than Medical Wellness.

Have a question that isn’t here? Call (702) 465-7471 or book your consultation online — we’ll explain exactly how the process works before you commit to anything.

  • No. Functional medicine is grounded in conventional science and evidence-based medicine — it uses the same diagnostic tools, lab testing, and clinical reasoning as mainstream medicine. The difference lies in application: investigating the root causes of dysfunction rather than simply matching symptoms to diagnoses.
  • No. Functional medicine works well alongside existing conventional care, and we coordinate with your other providers when appropriate. Many patients keep their primary care physician and specialists and add functional medicine for the chronic issues those visits have not resolved.
  • Testing may include gut microbiome and digestive function assessment, adrenal and cortisol testing, comprehensive hormone panels, nutritional status labs, genetic screening, advanced lipid and cardiovascular markers, and immunological testing. The specific tests depend entirely on your health history, symptoms, and goals — we do not run a fixed panel on everyone.
  • Conventional appointments are typically brief and symptom-focused. Functional medicine involves longer, more comprehensive consultations focused on understanding your full health context and identifying the upstream drivers of your symptoms — then treating those drivers.
  • Results vary with the complexity of the condition. Some patients notice improvements in energy, mood, and symptoms within weeks. More significant improvements in chronic conditions typically develop over several months of consistent care and protocol refinement.
  • A detailed review of your full health history, diet, lifestyle, stress levels, sleep quality, medications, and supplements, plus a collaborative discussion about your goals and concerns. Advanced lab work may be ordered based on what that conversation surfaces.
  • Call (702) 465-7471 or book online. We will confirm your appointment, send any intake paperwork ahead of time, and make sure your first visit has enough time to actually be useful.
