At Happy Kid Functional Medicine, we believe that every child deserves to thrive—not just survive.

 

Dr. Amy is dedicated to providing a holistic, root-cause approach to healthcare. Her passion for functional medicine stems from her extensive experience across a wide range of pediatric settings and her recognition of the shortcomings in traditional medicine, especially when it comes to addressing the underlying causes of chronic health issues in children.

​

As the owner and founder of Happy Kid Functional Medicine, Dr. Amy was inspired to establish this practice after witnessing firsthand the increasing challenges in conventional pediatric care. Traditional medicine often falls short in addressing the root causes of conditions, particularly when it comes to mental health, chronic illnesses, and the overuse of medications that may not be suitable for long-term wellness. She observed the mounting pressures on children and families, especially with the rise in pediatric mental health concerns and the increasing reliance on pharmaceuticals that may not fully address the underlying imbalances.

​

Dr. Amy’s broad expertise spans rural primary care, developmental pediatrics, border health, neonatal intensive care, pediatric home health care, and urgent care. She has worked with children of all backgrounds, and her extensive experience allows her to understand the unique health needs of children from all walks of life. However, it was in her diverse practice settings that she recognized the limitations of a one-size-fits-all approach in traditional medicine and became a passionate advocate for functional medicine as an alternative approach.

​

Dr. Amy’s approach is rooted in compassion and understanding, ensuring that every family feels heard, supported, and empowered. She is committed to helping children overcome obstacles to their well-being and achieve their fullest potential.

​
