Frequently Asked Questions
Functional medicine isn’t for everyone — and that’s ok. It’s a journey, not a quick fix, and it asks something from you: curiosity, commitment, and a willingness to make changes that support your health and life.
So, how do you know if it’s right for you?
At Dr. Indra Clinic, we often get asked: “Does functional medicine really work, or is it just another trend?” The short answer: Yes, it works—but not in the quick-fix way you might expect.
This is one of the most honest and important questions you can ask about functional medicine. Many of the people who come to us have already tried many things — medications, diets, supplements, private consultations — and the hardest part is not the symptoms… it’s the fear of hoping again. So rather than avoiding the question, let’s answer it properly.
If you’re searching for a functional medicine doctor near me, you’re likely looking for someone who will look beyond symptoms and help you understand what’s really happening in your body. Functional medicine is an approach that allows us to assess the whole person—not just an isolated problem—so you can finally get clear answers and a personalised plan for long-term health.

I’ve seen this pattern repeat itself countless times in my practice. A patient walks in exhausted, struggling with brain fog, unexplained pain, or persistent digestive issues. They’ve been to multiple doctors. They’ve had blood work done. Everything comes back normal.
And yet they feel awful.
The short answer: An initial consultation can start from around £300. Packages or ongoing care programmes can start from £1,000 or more. But as you might imagine, the full picture is more nuanced.
