Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is not a one-size-fits-all diagnosis—and it shouldn’t have a one-size-fits-all treatment. At Patients Medical in New York City, we understand that autism is multifactorial, and every child or adult with ASD deserves a personalized, compassionate, and integrative plan that supports neurological, metabolic, and immune health.
Instead of focusing only on behavior, we look at biological imbalances that can exacerbate symptoms—and we address them from the inside out.
Autism Spectrum Disorder is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects communication, social interaction, and behavior. It typically appears in early childhood, but symptoms and severity vary widely from person to person.
Many individuals with autism have co-occurring issues like gastrointestinal dysfunction, immune imbalances, anxiety, sensory sensitivities, and developmental delays that often go unaddressed in conventional care.
Symptoms may differ based on age and individual variation, but many include:
From a functional medicine perspective, autism is a whole-body disorder. The brain is affected—but so are the gut, immune system, and detox pathways. Possible underlying triggers and imbalances include:
To uncover root causes, we offer comprehensive biomedical testing tailored for autism, including:
We tailor nutrition plans to support digestion, reduce inflammation, and optimize brain health:

We provide evidence-based, physician-monitored supplementation such as:
We gently assist detox pathways that may be sluggish in children with autism:
We combine biological treatments with supportive modalities to enhance outcomes:

Six months later, Ethan began speaking in full sentences, was sleeping through the night, and had daily bowel movements. His teachers noted remarkable improvements in focus and interaction.
