ABOUT OUR CLINIC

Jeff Horacek, MD, is an Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner (IFMCP). Dr Horacek has a particular passion for serving those with chronic illness.

If you have a child or younger teenager in need of functional medicine care, please visit the Institute for Functional Medicine's website and search for a pediatric practitioner near you.
