Functional Doctors

Not feeling better with anything that I have done so far with mainstream and standard medical care.

Services

If you’ve been trying mainstream medicine, seeing different specialists, taking prescribed medications, following all the recommended tests—and yet still feel unwell, you are not alone. Many people reach a point where they realise that something deeper may be contributing to their ongoing symptoms. This page is here to help you explore why that happens and what other approaches might make a difference.

Dr Meera Rajah

MBBSc MRCGP MEd MRCEM DRCOG DFSRH DCH AFMCP

Hi, I am Dr Meera Rajah, working NHS GP , for over 10 years and GP partner for 8 years where I have developed my interest in women’s health and dermatoscopy. Following qualifying from Imperial College London, I have always been interested in acute medical care so I still do surprisingly enjoy a busy triage session as a NHS GP! With worrying data such as obesity doubling since 1990 and the prevalence of cancer increasing every year, we really do need to look at the root causes of illness and symptomatology.

Dr. Nicki Gill

MBChB MRCGP AFMCP

Hi there! I’m Dr. Nicki Gill, and I’m thrilled to welcome you to our functional medicine practice. With several years of experience as an NHS General Practitioner, I’ve developed a strong interest in women’s health and neurodiversity. My journey began in Warwickshire, where I trained and worked as a GP. I progressed to become Clinical Lead, overseeing several GP practices, and eventually took on leadership roles, including my position as Medical Director for urgent care and out-of-hours services in the West Midlands.

Why Take a Hormone Health Test?

Mainstream medicine is excellent at diagnosing and treating acute conditions. However, when it comes to chronic illness, fatigue, pain, digestive issues, or mood disorders, its focus on symptoms rather than root causes can leave a person frustrated.

• Fragmented care: Different specialists treat different parts of the body, but few look at how everything connects, especially in short appointments.

• Symptom suppression: Medications can mask issues rather than resolve underlying imbalances. For example, antihypertensives reduce high blood pressure but do not address why the condition developed.

• Lack of personalisation: Conventional healthcare often relies on standardised treatments designed for the general population, which can overlook what makes you unique.

• Neglect of emotional and spiritual health: Stress, trauma, and mindset profoundly affect physical wellbeing.

Hormones affect so much more than reproduction: energy, mood, sleep, stress response, and metabolism. With Hormone Health Testing, you will be able to identify an imbalance that might be the reason for your fatigue, irregular cycles, low libido, sleep problems, or mood swings.

Why Mainstream Medicine Sometimes Falls Short

Our Approach

How the Hormone Health Test Works

Our Hormone Health Test is easy and non-invasive. You will be sent a home collection kit or visit our clinic for sample collection. When collected, your sample is sent for advanced laboratory analysis. Your detailed report will break down the levels, imbalances, and patterns throughout your endocrine system. Our team at Functional Doctors then creates a personalised plan to restore hormonal balance naturally through diet, supplements, lifestyle adjustments, and follow-up testing as may be needed.

The Functional Medicine Advantage

At Functional Doctors, we take a holistic approach by analysing how gut, toxins and hormones connect to immunity and energy. By applying functional medicine principles, our practitioners get to the 'why' of your symptoms. Sometimes we recommend heavy metal testing or nutrition testing to complete a view of your body's internal balance. We combine insights on gut, nutrition, and toxin to help you get lasting results with science-backed, personalised care.
