Gurrit Kaur Sethi turned to functional medicine after conventional doctors treated her sleep problems, water retention, and swollen feet as separate issues. Dr. Preeti offered her a holistic approach that connected these mid-life concerns instead of addressing them in isolation.

Hi Preeti, what made you approach a functional medicine doctor? So, you know, you know, I work in healthcare. Whenever I visited a doctor for any problem, they only looked at that one specific area. It did not give me a comfort zone that I was looking for because they were unable to address or even hear out what I wanted to tell them. That, for example, I'm unable to sleep at night. For example, why do suddenly at times I have water retention, or why do my feet kind of swell up? So looking at all of those, you know, things, I think when I approached you, when I met you as a doctor, when I looked at you, I think that gave me a completely different paradigm about healthcare and especially getting myself started or addressing, you know, health issues that you kind of hit upon once you reach middle age. Thanks.
