Dr. Tiffany Mullen, Vytal Health
Reclaim Your Life with Functional Medicine Panel lead by Dr. Tiffany Mullen, Vytal Health When you’re not feeling well, you can’t live your fullest life. Unfortunately, in today’s rushed health care environment, the most common approach to care is to use prescriptions to cover symptoms, leaving you feeling unheard and dismissed. Functional medicine is an approach to health care that relieves symptoms and health conditions by uncovering their root causes. Functional medicine clinicians take the time to listen, unpack your history in great detail, and perform personalized, comprehensive testing to uncover and fix the problem. In this seminar, you’ll hear from four functional medicine specialists at Vytal Health: Dr. Julie Briley (specializing in gut health and food sensitivities), Dr. Alicia McCubbins (specializing in women’s health and fertility), Jen Miller, NP (specializing in hormone balancing and thyroid), and Dr. Tiffany Mullen (specializing in peri-menopause and menopause). Dr. Mullen will moderate the panel, and the other clinicians will be joining from around the country virtually!
