The fatigue that sleep won't fix. The weight that won't move no matter what you try. The hormonal shifts no one seems able to explain. These aren't character flaws, and they aren't in your head — they're signals worth listening to. At Pristine Health, we sit down, take the time to investigate the root cause, and build a personalized protocol with you, not at you.

What is functional medicine?
You've probably lived this: the appointment runs twelve minutes, the bloodwork comes back "normal," and you walk out to your car still exhausted, still not feeling like yourself, still without a real answer. That gap — between what the numbers say and how you actually feel — is exactly where functional medicine begins.
Functional medicine is more specialized than a typical primary care visit. If you've quietly carried gut issues for years, can't shake a fatigue that sleep never touches, or just feel like something is off in ways that are hard to put into words, you deserve a provider willing to slow down and dig for the deep-down root cause. That's a different kind of appointment than "I just need my thyroid meds refilled" — and it should feel different, too.
At Pristine, the two live side by side. Our team handles both, and we're honest with you about which one fits — because you deserve to be seen by the right provider, for the right reason, at the right moment.
Functional medicine is specialized care for patients who haven't found answers through traditional appointments. Where a conventional visit stops at "your labs look fine," we keep looking — with a full 1-hour intake, targeted labs, and a protocol built around your specific picture, not a template.
We're not here to criticize the system. Conventional medicine saves lives every single day, and we're grateful for it. But it runs under real time constraints that simply don't leave room for the kind of patient investigation that gets to the bottom of things. That's the space Pristine was built to fill: more time, more depth, and more of your story genuinely heard.
Carley McLaughlin, APRN-CNP founded Pristine Health after years of watching good people cycle through the conventional system — procedure after procedure, referral after referral, prescription after prescription — for concerns that, with enough upstream attention earlier on, might never have reached that point. Her founding question was a simple, stubborn one: what if patients were given the time, the depth, and the attention that a rushed appointment can never afford? She built Pristine to be the practice she always wished her own patients had access to — thorough, compassionate, and relentlessly curious about why.
That philosophy runs through every service line we offer. Functional medicine is simply where it lives most fully.
Functional medicine consultations at Pristine are led by Sommer Hood, APRN-CNP, alongside our growing team of functional medicine providers — so your care stays consistent and never gets spread thin across a rotation. When you schedule a functional medicine intake, you'll be matched with a provider who has time to get to know you over time. Our team brings a systems-based clinical lens to every patient: looking at how your hormones, gut health, metabolic function, and lifestyle all influence one another, and building protocols that address the connections between them — not just the individual data points on a page.
Functional medicine consultations are available at our 1709 W. 33rd St., Edmond location.
Transparent pricing
Functional medicine is an investment in a different kind of care — and we believe you should know exactly what that looks like before you ever pick up the phone or fill out a form. Here's everything, laid out plainly.
| Visit | What's Included | Investment | Payment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full Initial Intake | 1-hour intake + targeted lab panel + lab review with your functional medicine provider | $700 | Paid in full after your first appointment · Self-pay |
| Ongoing Follow-Up Visits | Progress review, protocol adjustments, and lab reassessment as needed | In-network or self-pay | Billed through insurance or self-pay options available |
Not sure which option makes sense for you? That's exactly what your consultation is for — our team will walk you through the lab choices and help you decide what fits your history, your goals, and your budget. There's no pressure to commit to anything before you're ready.
Insurance note: Pristine is in-network with most large carriers (Blue Cross, Aetna, Health Choice, Ambetter, United, and most other carriers.) After your initial intake and lab review, ongoing follow-up appointments can be billed through insurance.
Sommer leads Pristine's functional medicine team — guiding care from your very first intake through every follow-up that comes after. She brings a systems-based approach to every patient she sees: understanding how your hormonal health, gut function, metabolic patterns, and lifestyle shape one another, and building protocols around the full picture rather than the single symptom that brought you in.

Carley founded Pristine Health after years inside a system that, in her experience, never left enough time to look upstream at what was really going on. Her vision was a practice built on thoroughness, compassion, and a simple conviction: that patients deserve far more than a ten-minute appointment can ever offer. That belief shapes everything we do at Pristine.
Currently not accepting new patients.
If you've been running on empty for so long that empty has started to feel normal — the chronic stress, the sleep that leaves you just as tired, the whole-body exhaustion no one can quite put a finger on — please hear this: these aren't signs that you need to push harder or want it more. More often, they're signs that something upstream is out of balance and asking for attention. Functional medicine isn't only for people with complicated diagnoses. It's for anyone who has walked the conventional path — the bloodwork, the referrals, the "everything looks normal" — and still doesn't feel the way they know they should. Sommer will take what you're carrying seriously. You don't have to keep treating "this is just how I feel now" as the ceiling.
And there's no age requirement to deserve that kind of attention. Pristine has supported functional medicine patients from age 11 well into their 70s — because the willingness to ask "why" doesn't belong to any one stage of life.
An InBody body composition scan measures muscle mass, body fat percentage, and cellular hydration — real, tangible data points that can meaningfully sharpen your functional medicine protocol, especially when metabolism or body composition is part of what you're trying to understand.
Just ask about adding one when you schedule your functional medicine intake — we're happy to fold it in.
InBody scans are performed at our Sooner Road location:
Frequently Asked Questions
Functional medicine is specialized care focused on understanding the root cause of symptoms — not just managing them. Primary care is excellent for ongoing and acute needs: "I need my thyroid meds refilled" or "I have a sinus infection." Functional medicine is for patients who need a deeper investigation into why they feel the way they do.
The initial intake package — a 1-hour consultation plus targeted labs — is self-pay ($700 all-in). After your intake and lab review, ongoing follow-up appointments bill through insurance. Pristine is in-network with Blue Cross, Aetna, Health Choice, Ambetter, United, and most other carriers.
There's no real age range — Pristine has supported patients from age 11 through their 70s. It's for anyone living with persistent symptoms who genuinely wants to understand why. If something feels off and the conventional appointments haven't given you answers, functional medicine may be exactly the right next step, at any stage of life.
Not at all. You don't need a label to deserve a thorough investigation. In fact, many patients come to functional medicine precisely because they don't have a clear diagnosis yet — only symptoms no one has explained. Your intake is built to start from your actual experience and work toward understanding, not the other way around.
No referral is required. You can request a consultation directly through our Functional Medicine Inquiry form, and our team will reach out to schedule your first appointment with one of our functional medicine APRN-CNPs at our 33rd Street, Edmond location.
Your first appointment is a full hour with one of Pristine's functional medicine APRN-CNPs. They'll review your history, current symptoms, and goals in depth, then recommend a targeted lab panel designed around the specific patterns they're evaluating. Labs are drawn at or after your first visit.
Not necessarily — and it doesn't have to. Many patients use functional medicine right alongside their existing care: functional medicine investigates the root causes, while primary care handles ongoing prescriptions, sick visits, and referrals. Because Pristine offers both under one roof, your team can coordinate seamlessly whenever it's clinically appropriate.
Functional medicine consultations are offered exclusively at our 1709 W. 33rd St. location in Edmond, OK. Our second location at 3109 N. Sooner Rd. offers other services, including InBody body composition scans that may inform your broader health picture.
