My Story

Hello, I'm Dr. Kenny Mittelstadt

Functional Medicine Practitioner

Are you trying to break through your own chronic energy and sleep troubles? Or feeling stuck on the hamster wheel of health, trying everything but feeling like you’re not getting ahead?

I’ve been there. Ten years ago, I battled relentless acid reflux, insomnia, and was 40 pounds over my ideal weight—these sabotaged my voice, academics, and overall quality of life. 

Desperate for answers, I dug deep to address the root cause—not just mask symptoms.

After a “first life” in music and performance, I was driven to tackle the bigger questions about wellness. That search led me to my “second life” passions: functional medicine and evidence-based Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine.

Today, I’m on a mission to help “midlifers” break free from merely managing symptoms to get ahead of their changing health needs.  Through advanced lab testing and personalized health plans—my “secret sauce”—we focus on genuine transformation from the inside out, something that helped me come out on the other side of my own health struggles.

My dream? A community of people seeking deeper answers, ready to transcend physical roadblocks and live in vibrant social, emotional, and spiritual connection however they wish. I love exploring holistic health and believe we can create a more “well world” by transforming ourselves first.

You may be here to learn about functional medicine via my blog or ready to work with me virtually. Either way, I hope you find the guidance you need. 

I strive to live as “doctor as teacher,” showing you how to skillfully navigate the often noisy wellness world so you can “go fish for yourself” with confidence.

Let’s explore your wellness together. May my experiences spark new possibilities for you, just as they did for me.

In Health,

Dr. Kenny M. Signature
