As a board-certified doctor of chiropractic, Dr. Rudy was trained to address the body in a holistic manner with the understanding that physical and emotional trauma, along with thoughts, toxins, and food, can disrupt a person’s physiology and create symptoms and lead to a diagnosis. He developed a passion for functional medicine and became a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner through the Institute for Functional Medicine and earned an Advanced Fellowship in Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine through the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine. He has additional training in Genomics, Reversing Cognitive Decline utilizing the Bredesen Protocol, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Lyme Disease, and Enhancing Athletic Performance.

As a board-certified family nurse practitioner, Annette was trained in conventional medicine but became quickly disillusioned with the primary care model which offered little time, or tools, to address chronic illness. She developed a passion for functional medicine while working at an integrative medicine center in Miami Beach, Florida. Here, she learned about a gluten-free diet, a relatively new concept at that time, and was able to personally implement this diet to reverse chronic digestive symptoms that had plagued her for more than ten years. Within a month, functional medicine was able to address her problem after years of failed conventional medicine treatments. These results motivated her to become a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner through the Institute for Functional Medicine to utilize this approach to help herself and her patients. She has a special interest and advanced training in Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT), Preconception Medicine, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Lyme Disease, and Intravenous Nutrition.
