Discover The Root Cause Of Your Symptoms With Functional Medicine

At Kare Health & Wellness in Springfield, Missouri, we hear it every day from patients who come see us after not making any progress with their primary care physician: “My labs came back normal, but I still feel terrible.”

Or “I keep being told it’s just stress, but I know something’s wrong.”

If you’ve ever walked out of your doctor’s office feeling unseen or dismissed, you’re not alone—and you’re not crazy.

Conventional medicine does a decent job of handling emergencies, but when it comes to treating chronic symptoms, unexplained fatigue, hormone imbalances, gut issues, or autoimmune concerns, it often falls short.

Many patients are simply handed prescriptions or given vague reassurances, even though their quality of life is slipping through the cracks.

At Kare, we believe that just treating your symptoms isn’t enough. That’s why we practice Integrative and Functional Medicine—because you deserve real answers.

Functional Medicine flips the script by asking a different question: Why is this happening?

Instead of chasing symptoms, we investigate the root causes.

Your body is always communicating—through fatigue, pain, skin changes, brain fog, anxiety, bloating, and more.

These signs aren’t random—they’re clues.

And when you piece them together with advanced diagnostic testing, your medical history, lifestyle, environment, genetics, and emotional health, a clearer picture starts to emerge.

Our approach at Kare Health & Wellness is both thorough and personal. It starts with listening.

We take the time to understand your story—what you’ve tried, what hasn’t worked, and what your goals are.

From there, we use advanced lab testing and in-depth analysis to identify imbalances that are often missed by standard medical evaluations. We look beyond “normal” lab ranges and focus on optimal health.

But understanding the “why” is only the beginning. Once we uncover what’s driving your symptoms—whether it’s inflammation, toxicity, hidden infections, hormone shifts, gut dysfunction, or metabolic stress—we design a personalized plan to support healing at the source.

This might include targeted supplementation, lifestyle changes, detox support, IV therapies, or alternative treatments you won’t find in most primary care settings.

At Kare, our team of functional medicine providers partners with you every step of the way.

We don’t believe in quick fixes—we believe in long-term transformation. Our mission is to help you feel truly well, not just “better than before.”

We want you to have energy, clarity, and confidence in your body again.

If you’ve been told your symptoms are just part of getting older, that everything “looks fine,” or that medication is your only option, it’s time for a different approach.

The kind that actually listens. The kind that goes deeper. The kind that helps you finally feel seen—and truly well.

If you’re ready to take control of your health and start a new kind of journey, we’re here to guide you.
