Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about functional medicine training for physician assistants.

Our functional medicine curriculum covers bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) including testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, and thyroid optimization.

Yes. Our Functional Medicine Training course awards 7.5 CME credits accepted by NCCPA for physician assistant recertification. All AAOPM courses provide AAOPM certification and a Certificate of Completion. These credentials demonstrate your specialized training to employers and patients.
In most states, PAs practice under collaborative agreements with supervising physicians. The specific requirements vary significantly by state—some require direct supervision while others offer more autonomy. Our training prepares you to implement functional medicine within any practice structure. Many functional medicine practices specifically seek PAs for their collaborative model.
Our courses combine evidence-based didactic sessions covering physiology, testing, and treatment protocols with hands-on case study reviews. You'll work through real patient scenarios under faculty guidance, learning practical implementation strategies. We offer both in-person training at locations nationwide and livestream options. Course materials include protocols, consent forms, and implementation guides.

Discuss your expanded scope with your supervising physician to ensure alignment.
Functional medicine trained PAs are in high demand across integrative health practices, wellness centers, anti-aging clinics, and primary care offices adding functional services. Many work in cash-pay settings with better compensation and work-life balance.
