Patient overwhelm is preventing functional medicine from being a successful medical model. It’s time to better prepare patients on how to co-create comprehensive treatment plans based on current ability, so they feel empowered, confident, and competent to implement and sustain changes and see dramatic improvements in their health.
Functional Medicine is just one piece to a much larger personalized and comprehensive care plan.
Regardless of whether you plan to hire a coach or you are going to be the provider and the coach, it's advisable to orient the partners on how you will collaborate and guide patients through designing, implementing, and sustaining a personalized, comprehensive, and coordinated care plan that creates consistency and continuity of care.
