Functional Medicine

Functional Medicine is a patient-centered approach to healthcare that prioritizes the unique needs and goals of each individual.

At Neuroplasticity St. Pete, Dr. Leo aims to understand the root causes of illness, rather than simply treating symptoms. By addressing the complex interactions between the human body, our environment, our lifestyles and genetics, this approach empowers patients to take charge of their health journey

In Functional Medicine, we believe that the path to wellness begins with a deep understanding of how our bodies function as interconnected systems - with a consistent focus on prevention. Nutrition, lifestyle, mental and emotional wellness all play a crucial role in shaping our overall health. By focusing on these key areas, we can support the body’s innate ability to heal and maintain homeostasis, or balance.

Whether you’re managing a chronic condition or seeking to optimize your health as you age, Dr. Leo offers a personalized roadmap to your wellbeing. By fostering a collaborative relationship between patient and practitioner, this approach ensures that your unique story is heard and your health goals are always top priority. 

While Dr. Leo specializes in digestive health and utilizes both eastern and western approaches, such as stool and blood testing, there are a variety of chronic concerns Dr. Leo has successfully managed and treated in his career to-date. Healthy aging is not just about adding years to your life; it’s about adding life to your years.

Through a commitment to nutrition, stress management and a holistic view of health, Functional Medicine helps you thrive at every stage of life
