Learn From World-Class Clinical Experts
Our program features the renowned Functional Medicine Fast Track team of clinical experts who are actively practicing functional medicine and achieving extraordinary patient outcomes.
Dr. Elizabeth Board
Dr. Board was the first Medical Doctor in Georgia to become board certified by the Institute for Functional Medicine (IFMCP). She is also the founder of Atlanta Functional Medicine located in Alpharetta, Georgia. Dr. Board is a highly trained physician, not only in Functional Medicine, but also in Pain Management, Medical Acupuncture, Anesthesiology, and Neuro-Endo-Immune Certified.
After practicing as a Pain Management Physician, Dr. Board developed an interest in alternative methods of bringing about pain relief without placing patients on large doses of drugs that lead to dependence or cause sedation. Dr. Board is also a phenomenal athlete and practices what she preaches in functional medicine. Dr. Board has a passion for teaching and helping others grow their knowledge in Functional Medicine.
In 2007, I would meet a thought leader physician, Dr. Badenhorst. Dr. Badenhorst would change the way I approached a patient’s health concerns. He introduced me to a new thought process around low penetrance genetics. Using lifestyle strategies, a patient could control their health. Like a dimmer light switch, it was possible to influence genetics. I understood how lifestyle, exercise, food and supplementation actually influenced our health. This led not only to improvements in my own health but also my family and patients’ health, too.
It was then that First Line Therapy and Functional Medicine came to South Africa. Once I went through these introductory courses, I knew this was the missing link to understanding the deep root causes to patient conditions. This started my travels to the USA on the road to be an Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner (2011-2016).
Since moving to practice in the USA in 2016, my passion is helping patients overcome difficult injuries and other health-related concerns. Helping the patient not only overcome their challenges but create a strong base level health that allows them to prevent further recurrence and live the life they deserve. Along with being the medical advisor to KetoNutrition Elite Team, the Founder of Just Add Nutrition, founder of The Ultra Athlete Project, and mentoring other health practitioners into Functional Medicine.
