NYC’s Leading Integrative Health Care Center
Anti-Aging and Longevity Treatments Remember when you were in college and stayed up all night drinking beer, eating pizza, and partying; yet you still were able to attend class in the morning? How many of you could do that now?
In today’s fast-paced world, stress-related disorders are more common than ever. Yet conventional medicine often overlooks one critical system—the adrenal glands. At Patients Medical in New York City, our integrative and functional medicine approach focuses on identifying the root causes of adrenal fatigue and hormonal imbalances, so you can restore energy, clarity, and well-being—naturally.
We don’t just treat your symptoms—we treat the underlying dysfunction that’s draining your vitality.
Your adrenal glands are two small organs located above your kidneys. They produce essential hormones like cortisol, DHEA, and adrenaline—regulating your response to stress, metabolism, energy production, blood pressure, and immune function.
When these glands are overworked or underactive, a condition called adrenal dysfunction or “adrenal fatigue” can develop, leading to a cascade of health issues.
If you experience any of the following, adrenal dysfunction may be a root cause:
Functional medicine helps uncover what’s draining your adrenal glands. These are the most common root contributors:
At Patients Medical, we go far beyond standard blood work. We use cutting-edge labs to assess adrenal function comprehensively:
We customize each plan to restore adrenal health through natural, evidence-based methods:
Jessica, age 39, came to us with extreme fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, and anxiety. Her cortisol curve was completely flat, and she was showing early thyroid decline. We created a 12-week integrative plan:
At the end of three months, Jessica’s cortisol rhythm normalized, her energy soared, and her mood improved dramatically. She was able to return to work full-time and resume regular exercise.
It’s a term used in functional medicine to describe a state where the adrenal glands are unable to produce adequate stress hormones, often due to chronic stress.
Traditional endocrinology recognizes Addison’s and Cushing’s disease but often overlooks subclinical adrenal dysfunction. We use functional diagnostics to assess these subtle imbalances.
Typically through saliva or urine samples collected at different times of day to assess cortisol and DHEA levels.
Many patients begin to feel improvements within 4–8 weeks, depending on the severity and consistency with the treatment plan.
Not usually. Most cases can be addressed through lifestyle, nutrition, herbs, and bioidentical hormones when appropriate.
Yes—imbalanced cortisol can lead to weight gain, anxiety, depression, and sleep disorders.
Some lab tests may be partially reimbursed. We provide superbills for out-of-network reimbursement.
Absolutely. While it’s common in women, men can also experience adrenal dysfunction, especially under chronic stress.
Thyroid and adrenal health are closely connected. We often assess and support both simultaneously.
Yes—we evaluate the full hormonal picture, including estrogen, testosterone, insulin, and thyroid.
