Functional & Integrative Medicine
with Dr. Adam Perlman, MD, MPH
Looking Beyond Symptoms. Discovering What’s Driving Your Health.
Many people live with chronic symptoms for years without finding clear answers.
Digestive issues, autoimmune conditions, chronic inflammation, fatigue, food sensitivities, unexplained symptoms, and complex health concerns often have underlying contributors that are easily overlooked in traditional healthcare settings.
Dr. Adam Perlman takes a comprehensive, root-cause approach to understanding health and disease. Through extensive evaluation, thoughtful testing, and personalized treatment strategies, he works with patients to uncover the factors that may be contributing to illness and diminished quality of life.
Rather than simply asking, "What diagnosis do you have?" functional medicine asks, "Why is this happening?"
This approach allows us to create individualized plans that support healing, improve resilience, and optimize long-term health.
Areas of Focus
-
The digestive system influences nearly every aspect of health, including immunity, inflammation, nutrient absorption, hormone regulation, and overall wellbeing.
Dr. Perlman frequently works with patients experiencing:
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
Chronic bloating
Constipation
Diarrhea
Reflux and digestive discomfort
Food sensitivities
Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)
Microbiome imbalance
Leaky gut and intestinal permeability concerns
Inflammatory digestive conditions
By identifying underlying contributors, treatment plans are designed to support digestive function, reduce symptoms, and improve overall health.
-
Persistent inflammation has been linked to many chronic health conditions and may contribute to symptoms long before disease becomes apparent.
Common concerns include:
Joint pain and stiffness
Chronic aches and pains
Unexplained symptoms
Persistent inflammatory markers
Recurring health issues
Environmental and lifestyle-related inflammatory burdens
Through comprehensive evaluation, Dr. Perlman helps patients identify potential drivers of inflammation and develop practical strategies to support healing and long-term wellness.
-
Many patients come to functional medicine after seeing multiple specialists and still feeling unheard or lacking answers.
Dr. Perlman enjoys working with medically complex cases and individuals experiencing symptoms that have been difficult to explain or resolve.
Examples may include:
Chronic fatigue
Multiple unexplained symptoms
Long-standing health concerns
Environmental exposures
Complex medical histories
Chronic infections
Health challenges involving multiple body systems
His approach focuses on identifying patterns, connecting seemingly unrelated symptoms, and developing personalized treatment strategies based on each patient's unique situation.
Initial Consultation : $750
90 Minutes
Functional medicine appointments are intentionally different from traditional office visits.
Designed for individuals seeking a comprehensive root-cause evaluation of chronic symptoms, digestive concerns, autoimmune conditions, inflammation, or complex health challenges.
The initial consultation allows time to thoroughly review your health history, symptoms, lifestyle, nutrition, environmental factors, previous testing, and personal health goals.
This comprehensive process helps identify patterns and potential contributors that may not be apparent during a typical medical visit.
Patients can expect:
Extensive health history review
Comprehensive symptom assessment
Review of prior laboratory and diagnostic testing
Personalized recommendations
Discussion of advanced testing when appropriate
Individualized treatment planning
Collaborative decision-making
Following the consultation, recommendations may include lifestyle modifications, nutritional strategies, supplementation, additional testing, and personalized treatment planning.
Follow-Up visit : $375
30 Minutes
Follow-up visits allow time to review progress, discuss laboratory findings,
adjust treatment plans, and continue addressing underlying factors contributing to symptoms and health concerns.
Functional medicine is a process, and follow-up visits provide ongoing guidance, accountability, and support as your health evolves.
A Personalized Path Forward
No two patients are alike.
Your genetics, environment, experiences, lifestyle, and health history create a unique picture that deserves an individualized approach.
Dr. Perlman's goal is to help patients better understand their health, uncover potential root causes of illness, and create a practical roadmap toward greater vitality and wellbeing.
