Practice
Dr. Maren's practice provides functional medicine and hormone optimization through a collaborative, all-female care team that includes clinical and nutrition support.
Its approach follows three main pillars:
1. Address root causes: Investigate possible contributors such as gut issues, infections, inflammation, environmental triggers, and nutrient imbalances.
2. Optimize hormones: Assess hormone and thyroid health and consider bioidentical hormone replacement therapy and other appropriate treatments.
3. Build resilience: Develop individualized nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress-management strategies.
The practice also offers advanced testing and ongoing follow-ups to review results and adjust care plans. It operates as a specialty consulting practice rather than a primary care clinic.
