Dr. Linda Lee, MD, IMFCP
Dr. Linda Lee is a board-certified Family Physician who has a passion for Functional Medicine. After practicing conventional medicine for many years, Dr. Lee became dissatisfied with the band-aid symptomatic pill dispensing approach to people’s health that mainstream medicine provides and wanted to delve deeper into the root cause of her patient’s medical problems.
Though Dr. Lee can treat most conditions utilizing this type of integrative perspective, her focus presently is the optimization of cardiometabolic health. Dr. Lee has a passion for helping people achieve a healthy and optimal weight to reverse medical conditions such as diabetes, prediabetes, high cholesterol, fatty liver, and hypertension. Her emphasis is on the prevention of medical conditions such as heart disease, cancer, and dementia. She offers a personalized approach to weight loss, including dietary and lifestyle recommendations, intermittent fasting techniques, and the use of effective tools such as continuous glucose monitors, low-dose GLP-1s, and other peptides.
She wishes not just to improve a person’s lifespan (longevity), but to help optimize one’s health span – living out the latter years of your life with vital and vibrant health.
Dr. Lee feels it has been a great asset to be trained in both mainstream and functional medicine, bringing the best of both worlds to leverage the best possible care for her patients.
She looks forward to helping alleviate the suffering many patients have endured, dealing with chronic illnesses and not having satisfying options. You will love her warm, caring personality as well as her medical expertise from a fresh, new perspective.
