Longévité Palm Beach takes a root-cause approach to care. Instead of focusing on symptoms alone, we look at the full picture across lifestyle, nutrition, hormones, genetics, and environmental factors to understand why imbalances occur and how to correct them naturally. Every treatment plan is individualized and designed to create lasting health, not temporary relief.
We use advanced diagnostic testing including hormone panels, thyroid and adrenal testing, gut microbiome analysis, micronutrient testing, and inflammation markers. These labs give us a deeper understanding of your body’s unique chemistry and guide every personalized treatment plan.

Michelle is licensed to provide telehealth visits in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Texas, and Virginia offering the same personalized attention and support as our Florida in-person visits.
Your initial consultation typically lasts 60 minutes, giving time to review your health history, current concerns, and lab results in detail. Follow-up appointments are generally shorter and focused on progress and next steps.

Functional medicine is not typically covered by insurance because it includes specialized testing, extended visits, and individualized care plans. However, we will provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance.
Be careful with online ads! This answer depends on the provider as many use the term “functional medicine doctor” loosely and incorrectly.

The main limitation is that functional medicine is not covered by insurance, so testing and consultations are paid out-of-pocket. However, many patients find that the deeper insights and long-term results are worth the investment.
Yes, but only if they’re licensed medical professionals. Michelle Kavall, FNP-C, FMACP, can prescribe medication when clinically appropriate. Be cautious: some “functional medicine” providers are not licensed to prescribe and operate as health coaches or alternative practitioners instead.
Conventional medicine often treats symptoms with medication or isolated interventions. Functional medicine looks at the whole person to address the root cause, identify patterns across systems, and create a comprehensive plan to restore balance & long-term health.
