How to choose a functional medicine doctor in Raleigh

  1. Decide how you will pay first

    Of Raleigh's 9 listed practices, 1 says it bills insurance for visits, 3 offer superbills only, 3 are cash only and 2 don't say. The 4 that publish first-visit prices list $489 to $965, with a median of $623. Ask for the full cost in writing.

  2. Check licences, not the label

    Functional medicine is an approach, not a licence. Raleigh practices list MD (4), DC (3), NP (2), DO (2) and PA (1) credentials. Only 1 self-reports IFMCP certification. Ask which licence your clinician holds and confirm it with the North Carolina board.

  3. Ask what lab testing costs

    4 Raleigh practices name lab tests on their sites. Thyroid testing, metabolic panels and inflammation markers are each named by 2 practices. Ask whether testing is included in the visit fee or billed separately, and who bills you for it.

  4. Confirm telehealth licensing for your state

    4 Raleigh practices say they offer telehealth. Only 1 lists North Carolina, and 3 don't name any states. If you live outside the city, ask the clinician to confirm they are licensed where you live. Then check with your state board.
