Dr. Aaron Hartman will never forget the first time he saw Anna. She was 12 months old, sitting in a Bumbo chair on a Winnie the Pooh blanket, her tiny body unable to support itself. An eye patch covered her "strong" eye-not because it was injured, but because her brain had suffered such severe birth trauma that it affected her eye function. Her hands were curled tightly to her chest, classic signs of the brain damage she'd endured before birth.

Dr. Moday's medical journey is a testament to the profound impact that integrative and functional medicine have on patient care. She began her career with a solid foundation in internal medicine - Dr. Moday pursued a fellowship in allergy and immunology, spending a decade in private practice addressing allergies, chronic asthma, and immune deficiencies. "I felt that I wasn't using really all that I had learned, and there was a lot more to learn. It was not holistic enough for me," she shared.
