Do you know that 1 in 2 people suffer silently for years with reversible hormone imbalances, digestive disorders, stealth infections, and cognitive issues like brain fog and memory loss?
Do you also know that many people with these chronic health issues are never properly tested by their primary care doctors?
Oftentimes they hear “everything is fine” or “it’s just a sign of getting older”, when they know they don’t feel fine and feel like they aren’t being heard?
Left unchecked, all these issues can lead to more complicated health problems such as autoimmune disease, chronic pain, inflammation and heart disease, and obesity.
Dr. Fryer had a dream of being a medical physician since 6th grade. Health was a sense of calling and he enjoyed helping people more than anything else.
Dr. Fryer completed Family Medicine residency at Martin Army Community Hospital in Georgia after completing internship at Tripler Army Medical Center in Hawaii. He was a staff Family Medicine physician for over 18 years before building his own practice.
Around 2015, his wife and co-worker, Erien Fryer, came across functional medicine. Together they did training in the Institute for Functional Medicine. They found the training invigorating and refreshing.
In order to determine the root causes of dysfunctions, Medical Direct Care started practicing functional medicine. As a result they integrate diet and efforts outside of the insurance industry.
This is now the bedrock of what Medical Direct Care practices today to take people from sick and hopeless to well and hopeful.
