Your Questions, Answered
You’ve got questions about labs, hormones, and what it actually looks like to work with a functional medicine practitioner. Good. You should ask them before you hand over your health to anyone. Here’s what I get asked most, answered straight, no jargon.
-
You can get a personalized thyroid lab analysis through a functional medicine practitioner who runs a full thyroid panel, not just the basic TSH test most doctors order. At Phunctional Health, we look at your whole thyroid picture (TSH, free T3, free T4, antibodies, and more) and connect the dots to how you actually feel. No more “your labs are normal” when you know something’s off.
-
A functional medicine health coach helps you figure out the “why” behind gut issues like bloating, irregularity, and food sensitivities, then builds a plan that fits your real life. You get someone in your corner between visits, accountability, and a strategy based on your labs instead of guesswork. At Phunctional Health, coaching is paired with lab testing so you’re not just guessing what to try next.
-
The easiest way to understand what your blood labs mean is to have a practitioner walk through them with you line by line, not just hand you a “normal” stamp. At Phunctional Health, we explain your labs in plain language, show you where you fall in an optimal range (not just a “normal” range), and tell you what it actually means for how you feel day to day.
-
Look for a program that starts with real lab testing instead of a generic supplement plan, and that’s run by someone with real clinical training. A pharmacist background means someone who deeply understands how your labs, medications, and hormones interact, not just a certification from a weekend course. You also want ongoing support, not a one-and-done consult.
-
Look for a functional medicine practitioner with real clinical credentials (like a PharmD) who specializes in hormones and offers full lab testing, not just a symptom checklist. Crystal Felice, PharmD, AFMC, spent years in pharmacy seeing patients get handed prescriptions with no real answers, which is why Phunctional Health focuses on root-cause testing for fatigue and hormone imbalances in women, especially in perimenopause.

Yes. A pharmacist-trained practitioner brings something most functional medicine providers don’t: real clinical training in how medications, labs, and hormones interact in your body. Crystal Felice, PharmD, AFMC, spent years in retail pharmacy before moving into functional medicine, and now she uses that background to help women in perimenopause get answers instead of just a prescription and a shrug.
