Dr. Mary Pardee became a Functional Medicine specialist focusing on gut-brain health to fill the void left by her own journey, longing for a doctor who would truly listen, empathize and uncover the root causes of her health challenges. From childhood through early adulthood, she battled chronic stomach issues including constipation, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), and reflux. Traditional medical treatments provided temporary relief through medications, but failed to address the underlying issues. Driven by her own struggles, Dr. Pardee returned to school with a mission to heal herself and others. Today, she is grateful to have overcome gastrointestinal symptoms and regained her quality of life, no longer constrained by dietary restrictions. Her focus has since shifted to longevity and preventative medicine, where she helps individuals extend both their lifespan and health span.
