Functional Medicine Florida Goes Fully Virtual — Bringing Whole-Life Medicine to a Global Audience
Functional Medicine Florida (FMF) will officially launch its new fully virtual functional medicine practice on November 25, 2025, enabling patients anywhere in the U.S. — and globally — to access the clinic’s hallmark root-cause, lifestyle-driven services. Under this new model, FMF is expanding its mission from local Florida impact to a global community of wellness-minded individuals.
For over 30 years, founder Fred Harvey, MD, has provided high-level integrative and functional medicine in Sarasota, focusing on brain health, toxicity reduction, gut support, and preventative diagnostics. In today’s interconnected world, patient needs have evolved: they expect convenience, remote access, community, and digital-first care. By transitioning to a digital-only platform, FMF is responding to this shift — removing geographic constraints, accelerating access, and creating a scalable model for lasting wellness.
What This Means for Patients
Patients worldwide can now participate in FMF’s signature functional health programs, collaborating with Dr. Harvey and his team entirely online.
Lifestyle, brain-resilience, environmental-toxicity and longevity-focused work is enhanced by community platforms, live group sessions, and digital coaching modules.
By eliminating the traditional physical office model, FMF can invest even more deeply in personalized care, continuous monitoring, and a global peer community.
Existing Florida-based patients can continue seamlessly, while new patients from across the U.S. and abroad are welcomed.
From Dr. Harvey:
“Our mission has always been to help people heal from the inside out — to get to the root causes, not just chase symptoms. With this transition, we’re no longer bound by walls or zip codes. We’re building a global platform of vibrant health, deep connection and lifelong wellbeing — and I’m thrilled to invite the world in.”
