Debra Brunk
I am a family nurse practitioner specialized in integrative and functional medicine (FM). I received my master’s degree and Family Nurse Practitioner training at the university of Illinois in Chicago in 2001 and a doctorate in nursing practice from the University of Virginia in 2015. I am certified by the Institute of Functional Medicine as a FM.
Functional medicine is an approach that looks for root causes of disease. The world is more toxic, our diets are poor and many are not getting the answers they need to live a healthy life. Instead of squelching symptoms with medications that can bring harmful side effects, we look for ways to bring balance to the body allowing self-healing to occur.
I bring to my functional medicine practice the tools of conventional medicine and a commitment to be a partner with you in your journey to health.
