Wonderfully Made Functional Medicine

Proceed with extreme caution. Functional medicine is a process that takes time to acclimate to. It can be overwhelming and is also a financial commitment. That was not made clear to me upfront. In my experience as a new patient for 18 months, Dr. Wood and her staff proved to be very rigid, impatient, and unforgiving. There is very little new patient education and orientation, as they assume you know what you are getting into without explaining how the process works and the expectations. Ongoing communication is also an area that needs significant improvement. After a rough start (I made the mistake of starting this journey with a new position) I was finally on my way to getting the swing of managing the prescriptions and daily supplements scheduled, only to be dismissed unexpectedly becau

I have been a patient of Dr.Wood's for over 15 years now. I love her office and her staff- they always treat me so respectfully and totally understand the discomfort a woman can have in going to a gynecologist. They do everything they can to make you feel at ease and comfortable. Dr.Wood is great and will give you the time you need. She is very competent when doing any procedures that need to be done. She is also pro-active with keeping her patients well.

2 year relationship. The doctor is kind. Recently the staff receptionist, Karen,was rude and condescending regarding being seen once per year in person when I requested a refill. I communicated this interaction via the patient portal, hoped for better then booked my in person appt 1 month later. I asked for specific test to have fresh results 7 days before my appt so the Doctor would have up to date results to view. Rec'd major resistance from the Dr's Medical Assistant, Paige, who would not order the test because she said the test results take 10 days from Lab corp. This is not true. I usally recv results in 2-3 days in the past for the same exact test Ive been doing with this office for 2 years. After going back a fourth via the patient portal with Paige (see below) I requested to

I have been seeing Dr. Wood for nine months. She has helped me with a couple of problems that my other doctors have not been able to solve. She spends as much time with me as I need to address all of my concerns. She is absolutely the best doctor I have ever seen! When I enter a question to the portal, her office is very prompt in replying. For me, she has taken a natural and medical approach to each problem. I like that!

great doctor.
