Irena, a board-certified nurse practitioner has seventeen years of experience in healthcare. She specializes in functional integrative medicine and anti-aging, offering holistic care to help patients achieve optimal health and wellness. Besides providing healthcare, she also aids doctors, nurse practitioners, and other health providers across the US in learning the principles of integrative medicine through different live and virtual lectures and seminars.

After finishing her master’s degree, she started studying with one of the founders and experts in integrative medicine, stem cells, and anti-aging, Dr. Mitchell Ghen. She learned principles of functional diagnostics and therapies, such as hormone replacement, intravenous nutrition, detoxification, and appropriate use of supplements. She has since been working with Dr. Ghen in clinical practice and co-hosting his radio and TV shows. Irena’s training has enabled her to practice true holistic healthcare. She uses functional therapeutic interventions alongside conventional medical treatments to assist her clients in achieving optimal health outcomes. Irena considers integrative medicine the future of the healthcare industry.

“I believe that all clinicians should focus on wellness, prevention, and individualized care. To increase access to integrative medicine, I work with healthcare providers throughout the United States, assisting them in incorporating functional medicine principles into their practices. I interpret comprehensive lab and functional tests and develop integrative treatment protocols. I continually advance my education and training at various medical conferences to stay up-to-date with the latest clinical research so I can bring the best treatment modalities to my patients and colleagues.”
