Hannah Newman is Now IFM Certified
Hannah Newman Received Her IFM Certification
We are pleased to announce that Hannah Newman, FNP, has recently become certified in functional medicine! She received her certification on Friday, December 20, from The Institute for Functional Medicine. MedNOW is able to bill most insurance companies for these services and coverage will be determined by your plan, this is unique in that many other Functional Medicine providers do not accept insurance.
Functional medicine is a patient-centered, science-based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of illness rather than simply treating symptoms. By integrating traditional medical practices with evidence-based alternative therapies, functional medicine seeks to enhance your overall wellness and support long-term health.
With this certification, Hannah is equipped to provide a more comprehensive approach to care, addressing lifestyle factors, nutrition, genetics, and more to create personalized treatment plans. Whether you’re managing a chronic condition or simply looking to optimize your well-being, Hannah is here to help you achieve your health goals with a tailored approach designed just for you.
We’re excited to see the positive impact this will have on the health and well-being of our patients and community. If you happen to run into Hannah, please offer her a well-deserved congratulations!

Alcohol use disorder continues to be a growing concern across the country. Millions of individuals are affected each year, and excessive alcohol use contributes to a significant number of preventable health issues and deaths in the United States. With April recognized as Alcohol Awareness Month, we want to take this opportunity to raise awareness and encourage reflection on how alcohol may impact your health, relationships, and overall well-being. While alcohol use is common, it’s important to recognize when it may be affecting your life or the lives of those around you. If you or a loved one may be struggling, please know that you are not alone. Our MedNOW providers are here to offer support, guidance, and treatment options tailored to your needs. We encourage you to reach out to your provider or contact your local MedNOW clinic to learn more about how we can help. There are effective treatment options available, including FDA-approved medications that can help reduce alcohol cravings. One commonly used option is Naltrexone, a once-daily medication that has been shown to decrease cravings with minimal side effects significantly. Additional prescription and over-the-counter options may also be appropriate depending on your individual situation. For more information about alcohol use and its effects, the CDC offers helpful resources. If you or someone you know needs immediate assistance, don't hesitate to get in touch with the National Drug and Alcohol Treatment Hotline at 1-800-662-HELP (4357). Thank you for prioritizing your health and well-being.
