Unclear diseases

Individual solu­tions for complex health puzzles.
Our team is dedi­cated to the chall­enge of trea­ting dise­ases that are unclear and often diffi­cult to diagnose. We under­stand that behind diffuse symptoms some­times lie complex causes that require a thorough and holi­stic approach. Our aim is to iden­tify the true source of your symptoms and offer effec­tive, indi­vi­du­ally tail­ored treat­ment.

SYMPTOMS

Diffuse pain and exhaustion:

Many pati­ents suffer from persis­tent, unex­plained pain and chronic fatigue that inter­fere with their daily lives.

Gastrointestinal complaints

Unclear diges­tive problems, food into­le­rances and abdo­minal pain are common concerns.

Mental symptoms or cognitive impairment

Symptoms such as depres­sion, anxiety or concen­tra­tion problems for which no clear cause can be found.

Approach

Observations

The forest for the trees… It is often the same in conven­tional medi­cine, there is a doctor for each indi­vi­dual tree (organ system), but no one who makes sure that the whole forest (person) is well. In the case of chronic illnesses in parti­cular, many diffe­rent organ systems are often affected and pati­ents often have a veri­table odyssey behind them in their search for a cure. Diffuse symptoms, which at first glance appear to have nothing to do with each other, can some­times be traced back to a single cause. However, it is often a combi­na­tion of many factors that ulti­m­ately lead to an illness. Sometimes an almost detective-​like approach is neces­sary to iden­tify the true origin of the illness.

Forms of therapy

Our pati­ents often have a long history of suffe­ring behind them without having received a clear diagnosis. We see it as our task to unravel these complex clinical pictures and iden­tify the under­lying causes. Our thera­peutic approa­ches are as varied as our pati­ents’ symptoms. They range from dietary changes and stress manage­ment to natur­opa­thic methods and targeted drug treat­ment concepts. We use a detec­tive approach to find the root of the problem and provide compre­hen­sive treat­ment.
„The forest for the trees… In func­tional medi­cine, we take care of the whole forest, the person as a whole, in order to uncover and treat the true causes of unclear dise­ases.“

GOOD TO KNOW

We look forward to welco­ming you to our clinic. We take enough time to under­stand your medical history. Based on your previous findings, the completed medical history form and our diagno­stics, we will create a custo­mized treat­ment plan for you. Please note that you should come with an empty stomach (water is permitted) to enable us to make an accu­rate diagnosis.

We attach great importance to cost trans­pa­rency and will inform you of the costs incurred before treat­ment begins. Please note that private health insu­rance poli­cies are very unli­kely to cover all services. In such cases, you will have to bear the costs yourself. We will be happy to answer any ques­tions you may have about insu­rance cover, co-​payments or payment options.

To make your appoint­ment with us as conve­nient as possible, we offer you the option of simply arran­ging your consul­ta­tion online. You can choose between appoint­ments of 30 or 60 minutes, depen­ding on your needs. Alternatively, you can also leave us a message by phone and we will get back to you imme­dia­tely to arrange your appoint­ment.

To ensure effec­tive commu­ni­ca­tion, we ask you to select an appoint­ment option online. Be it for a face-​to-​face appoint­ment in the prac­tice, a video consul­ta­tion or a tele­phone consul­ta­tion. Alternatively, you can also leave us a tele­phone message.

Please under­stand that e‑mail inqui­ries cannot be answered due to time cons­traints.

Please note that repeat prescrip­tion orders will be processed with suffi­cient lead time (14 days). For prescrip­tion requests, please send an e‑mail to: rezepte@zentrum-funktionelle-medizin.de

We are aware of our respon­si­bi­lity and devote the utmost atten­tion to your concerns. The path of func­tional medi­cine requires pati­ence and it takes expe­ri­ence to develop solu­tions that enable health in depth. In doing so, we conduct rese­arch and talk to other specia­lists and thera­pists until we have found a solu­tion.
