IMPORTANT: Hurricane Milton update:
**Dear Functional Medicine Florida Patients,**
Due to the approaching Hurricane Milton, we will be closing our office on Monday, October 7th, and remain closed for the week as Dr. Harvey and the staff evacuate north for safety. The current forecast shows that Hurricane Milton is on a direct path toward the Tampa Bay area, and the well-being of our staff and patients is our highest priority.
Juan will be reaching out to all patients with scheduled appointments this week to reschedule. We aim to resume normal business hours on Monday, October 14th.

Meet the Team at Functional Medicine Florida
Functional medicine is a very specific area that focuses on a few key things: finding the underlying cause of a patient’s health problems, using a laboratory based analysis system to determine what is wrong, using supplements to correct problems with medications as needed, and focusing ever more and more on lifestyle changes such as diet, exercise, sleep and meditation.

what people say
Chris Vercelli
I’m a health practitioner who has worked with many of Dr. Harvey’s patients, and the feedback I’ve gotten from them about his care is wonderful. He is very well educated and very good at developing treatment plans for a variety of health problems. His approach to healthcare is SO needed in this world of cookie cutter “medicine”, and even if you only went to him for a second opinion, it’d be well worth it. Thanks for all you do Doc! God bless!
Kenn R.
Dr. Harvey is head-and-shoulders above any other medical practitioner we have encountered. When we first came to Sarasota, he gave my wife and me the most thorough physical exams we had ever had, ordering very different sets of blood tests for each of us based on his extensive initial questioning. From the blood tests, he figured out right away what had baffled my previous family doctor, and a high-dollar hematologist, and corrected my problem using simple dietary changes. With his help, my wife got off medications she had needed for decades. …Dr. Harvey is just a delightful, open person and a pleasure to work with.
Judith Harding
I’ve been a patient of Dr. Harvey’s for several years, something like seven years. He always has a very knowledgeable and supportive staff. Recently, I had a very quick and hard fall that changed my life drastically. Dr. Harvey and his staff, especially Haylee, Kerry, and Tracy have helped me through some dark days. I am so grateful for their support. I can see there is hope for me to have continued good health and quality of life.
Mrs Wright
When I came to you I was going doctor to doctor and feeling worse and believing that I was going down. All the medicines that I was taking to help me had so many adverse effects that I kept feeling worse and I never got any beneficial results. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren’s syndrome, lifelong constipation, severe migraine headaches, insomnia, and lymphoma. I was extremely exhausted. Since I have come to see you I have never felt better. I am 80 and I feel better than I did at 50! … I have a life again! THANK YOU SO MUCH DR HARVEY!!! YOU Are my hero! I thank God every night for Him sending me to you!
