Vitality Family Health Roadmap

The Vitality Family Health Roadmap is our step-by-step framework for getting to the bottom of what is actually going on in your body. Unlike a conventional office visit that addresses one complaint at a time, our roadmap looks at the full picture: your history, your labs, your lifestyle, and the systems that are out of balance underneath your symptoms.

This is primary care and functional medicine working together. We start where most doctors stop, and we keep going until we have a clear, personalized plan. Whether you are managing a chronic condition, trying to optimize your hormones, struggling with energy and focus, or simply looking for a physician who will take the time to listen, this is how we work.

During the intake, we’ll review your past medical history and any previous lab tests, so we can assess symptoms or anything your doctor might have missed.
Next, we’ll determine the need for additional lab tests to help pinpoint the real reasons for your digestive drama and to understand your current hormone and stress levels.
After that, we’ll prioritize our treatment approach for immediate symptom relief – utilizing a variety of healing protocols, supplements. During this process, we also will adjust your treatment schedule based on sensitivity and how receptive you are to treatments.
The next three steps focus on restoring and optimizing gut function, starting with pathogens & stealth infections that are often at the root of gut dysbiosis.
Next, we focus on repairing the gut lining to reestablish intestinal integrity so we can lower inflammation and undo the damage caused by things like leaky gut.
Once we make headway with rebooting your gut health, we’ll turn our attention to rebalancing your nervous system, hormones, and cellular health.
Specifically, we’ll strengthen parasympathetic tone to help you shift from “fight or flight” to “rest and digest” mode – while dialing down inflammatory signals and enhancing mood and focus.
In the hormone rebalancing step, we provide thyroid and adrenal support to restore energy and improve metabolism. We also cover blood sugar balance and address possible insulin resistance that can keep you from losing weight and feeling energized.
The final step of our Gut Health Roadmap focuses on detox and cellular balance – helping you reduce your body’s toxic burden, avoid toxins in the first place, and replenish your cellular machinery for an energized life.

How Our Approach Is Different

Most primary care physicians do not have the time or the tools to investigate root causes, and most functional medicine practitioners do not provide the full scope of primary care. At Vitality Family Health in Oak Brook, IL, our practitioners do both. Our team delivers comprehensive primary care alongside deep functional medicine investigation, so you never have to choose between thoroughness and accessibility.

Here is what that looks like in practice:

Primary care and functional medicine under one roof. Physicals, sick visits, chronic disease management, and advanced functional testing all happen here. You do not need a separate specialist to get to the root of what is driving your symptoms.
Advanced diagnostics that go beyond standard lab work. We use micronutrient panels, hormone assessments, gut and stool testing, neural antibody testing, food sensitivity panels, and extensive cardiometabolic markers to build a complete picture of your health.
Personalized plans based on your biology, not a protocol. No two people are the same. Treatment draws from nutrition, lifestyle medicine, hormone optimization, pharmaceutical-grade supplements, and conventional medicine as needed, in proportions that make sense for your specific situation.
A whole-person framework that includes mind, body, and environment. We consider stress physiology, sleep, nutrition, toxic burden, emotional health, and more. Symptoms rarely have a single cause, and our approach reflects that complexity.
A physician and practitioners who teach as well as treat. Our team invests time in helping members understand what is happening in their bodies and why. An informed patient is an empowered one, and health independence is the goal.
Natural and low-intervention therapies whenever appropriate. We lean toward supporting the body's own regulatory systems before defaulting to pharmaceuticals. When medication is the right tool, we use it thoughtfully and explain why.

How It Works

Free Discovery Consult

A short 15-minute discovery consult to identify the key problems along with the best next steps.

Initial Appointment

EITHER a 60-minute consult discussion about your case and whether a wellness program is a good fit OR an in-depth 60-minute medical first intake visit to review your history and create a solid treatment plan on the primary care side.

12+ Month Primary Care Membership

Care is delivered over a 12+ month primary care membership OR a customized wellness program determined in the 60 minute consult discussion visit.

Over the course of months, we provide a personalized treatment approach (depending on the severity of your situation and which side of the practice you are working on). Most of our patients experience significant improvements in their wellness within a few weeks to months of starting to work with our team depending on which side of the practice they are on (faster results are typically seen on the wellness side vs primary care side).

TESTIMONIALS

In Our Patients Own Words

  • My husband and I have searching for more open-minded pediatric practice and found Vitality Family Health. Having done the consult and the establish care visit, I am more than happy to state that this place, and everything it encompasses, is amazing. It is a relief to be able to talk with like minded doctors and not feel judged about the choices you make in regards to your family health/well being. It truly does feel like a family setting and would recommend this practice to everyone. There was no sense of being rushed out the door, or the feeling of not being able to ask any question, the doctor answered all my questions and still asked me in the end if I had more. Everyone was extremely patient with my super active 2yr old and 7 month old. We feel very comfortable with this place and look forward to staying with them for a long time. Thank you to everyone for your understanding, patience and knowledge.

  • My kids and I joined VFH about a year ago and it was the best decision we could have made. Everyone we have worked with have been so kind and helpful. Love that we have longer appointments where the doctors are genuinely interested in learning more about us and our health. They have all been wonderful at offering suggestions to better our health as well. I would recommend VFH to any family and friends especially those who would appreciate informed consent.

  • A true family practice with staff that actually spends quality time with each patient. The staff also gets to know each person without having to just look at a file. Their communication and follow up via phone and email has been above and beyond. Our family of 4 has been part of this family for 7+ years and we are very pleased. We are a healthier family because of this practice.

  • Everyone at Vitality goes above and beyond to help their patients with whatever issue they need assistance with. What I love the most about Vitality is the extensive blood work they perform to see exactly what is going on in your body and then they go over the issues that are concerning. I highly recommend Vitality to people of all ages.

  • I started going to see Dr Kori Feldman when she was in La Grange it was maybe 2010. It took me fours years to find a Doctor to prescribe me for the natural thyroid meds that I wanted. Dr Feldman was an answer to this prayer. My first visit with her I instantly loved her protocol and she spent great amount of time with her patients. I finally found a Doctor that understand and respected my natural healing modalities. She started to become maybe popular and then was seeing maybe only new patients. The first nurse practitioners I had to see - I did like. But the last time I went I had to see another and well, I did not go back. Now they have the Direct Primary Care Plan. I would only consider if I could see Dr Feldman on this membership. Dr Kori Feldman you are terrific! Thank you for the time you have spent with me. Not sure yet if I will be back.
