The good doctor has been hired by the Cleveland Clinic to head a new dept. Center for Functional Medicine. That gives him a lot of street cred in my view.

Well functional medicine is just looking at the root cause of your issues and not focusing on treating the symptoms. They still use traditional medicine if needed. They view the body as a whole system and treat it as such to get everything in balance.
