What is Functional Medicine?
Dating as far back as the 1950s, people began searching for alternatives to the conventional medicine approach. Ultimately, the term ‘Functional Medicine” was coined by Jeffery Bland, Ph.D., in 1990. This type of medicine uses a systems-based approach that focuses on uncovering and addressing the root cause of the patient’s symptoms/disease. Functional medicine recognizes that there may be more than one factor contributing to the patient’s illness. Prevention and restoring homeostasis are the primary focuses of functional medicine. Individualized factors such as diet, stress, sleep, movement, and genetics are considered in treatment.
What is Conventional Medicine?
Conventional medicine is often referred to as traditional Western medicine and has been around since the 16th-18th centuries. It may also be referred to as allopathic, orthodox, modern, or mainstream medicine. Conventional medicine focuses on disease detection and management using anatomy and symptoms for diagnosis.
​
Once the patient has been labeled with a diagnosis, a treatment plan is generally developed to mitigate the symptoms that have occurred. Within this system, healthcare providers such as medical doctors, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, pharmacists, etc., use an anatomical-symptoms-based approach to diagnose disease.
Meet Alexandria
My name is Alexandria St. Rose, and I hold a Master’s degree in Adult Gerontology Primary Care from the University of Miami, where I graduated in 2018. Afterward, I began working with a nephrology group, treating patients with chronic kidney disease and those on dialysis—many of whom were in very poor health.
Throughout my time at the University of Miami, I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Looking back, I realize I had experienced joint pain since my early career as a registered nurse in 2013, but it wasn’t until my nurse practitioner studies that I was formally diagnosed. I had also struggled with eczema and anxiety from childhood, eventually starting medication for anxiety during my NP program.
