Integrative & Functional Medicine
A personalized, whole-person approach to medicine that looks beyond individual symptoms to understand the many factors influencing your health and help identify a path toward greater balance and well-being.
Functional medicine asks a broader question: not only what is happening, but why. Rather than looking at symptoms or body systems in isolation, Dr. Harleen takes time to understand the larger picture, including medical history, nutrition, lifestyle, stress, environment, medications and laboratory findings.
As a board-certified Internal Medicine physician and Fellow of Integrative Health and Medicine, Dr. Harleen combines conventional medical knowledge with an integrative, systems-based approach. When appropriate, care may include advanced laboratory testing, nutrition and lifestyle strategies, targeted supplementation and other individualized recommendations.
RootCare MD operates as an independent medical practice within Beck Wellness Center, allowing patients to access physician-led integrative and functional medicine alongside the complementary wellness services available under our roof.
