Neos Functional Medicine

Neos Functional Medicine operates as a telehealth-focused functional medicine practice serving patients throughout Florida from its Miami base, led by Chloe Pappas, PA-C. The clinic addresses hormone imbalances, metabolic dysfunction, gut health disorders, and age-related decline through personalized treatment protocols that integrate conventional diagnostics with functional medicine principles. Pappas brings physician assistant training and specialized functional medicine education to her approach, conducting comprehensive intake assessments that examine hormone panels, metabolic markers, microbiome status, and lifestyle factors before designing individualized care plans for each patient.

The clinic incorporates NAD+ therapy as a foundational component of its anti-aging and metabolic optimization protocols. NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) supplementation supports cellular energy production, DNA repair mechanisms, and mitochondrial function—processes that decline with age and contribute to fatigue, cognitive changes, and metabolic slowdown. Neos Functional Medicine administers NAD+ through various delivery methods tailored to patient needs and treatment goals, with protocols designed to address specific concerns ranging from energy restoration to longevity optimization. The practice combines NAD+ therapy with targeted interventions for hormone balance, including bioidentical hormone replacement when indicated, thyroid optimization, and adrenal support strategies that address the interconnected nature of endocrine function.

Chloe Pappas structures patient care around detailed functional medicine assessments that extend beyond standard lab work to include comprehensive hormone testing, advanced metabolic panels, and gut health evaluation when digestive symptoms or systemic inflammation suggest microbiome involvement. Her approach to sustainable weight loss differs from conventional calorie-restriction models by addressing underlying metabolic barriers—insulin resistance, thyroid dysfunction, cortisol dysregulation, and inflammatory processes that prevent fat loss despite dietary efforts. Treatment plans incorporate nutrition protocols specific to each patient's metabolic type, supplement regimens targeting identified deficiencies, and lifestyle modifications that support long-term metabolic health rather than temporary results.

Patients access Neos Functional Medicine entirely through telehealth consultations, eliminating geographic barriers for Florida residents seeking functional medicine care outside major metropolitan areas. Initial consultations involve comprehensive health history review, symptom assessment, and discussion of previous lab work, followed by ordering of appropriate functional testing through partnered laboratories that ship collection kits directly to patients. Follow-up visits track biomarker changes, adjust treatment protocols based on patient response, and provide ongoing education about the physiological mechanisms underlying each intervention. The virtual care model allows for flexible scheduling while maintaining the depth of assessment and personalized attention that characterizes functional medicine practice.

The Miami-based clinic distinguishes itself through its focus on women's hormonal health across life stages—from reproductive hormone imbalances affecting fertility and menstrual regularity to perimenopausal transitions and postmenopausal optimization. Pappas addresses the relationship between hormonal status and sleep quality, metabolic rate, mood stability, and cognitive function, recognizing that isolated hormone replacement without addressing lifestyle factors, nutrient status, and stress physiology produces incomplete results. Her protocols for gut health restoration examine the bidirectional relationship between microbiome composition and systemic health, including effects on hormone metabolism, neurotransmitter production, and immune function. This systems-based perspective allows Neos Functional Medicine to address complex, multi-system concerns that conventional specialty-siloed care often fragments into disconnected treatments.
