Functional Medicine Nurse Practitioner

Laurie Robertson is a Functional Medicine Nurse Practitioner who helps patients identify and address the root causes of chronic symptoms so they can restore balance, improve energy, and achieve lasting wellness. She is a Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner (IFMCP) through the Institute for Functional Medicine, the leading global organization in root-cause, systems-based care.

Laurie brings over a decade of advanced practice experience across primary care, urgent care, and integrative medicine settings. Most recently, she practiced at Houston Methodist’s Integrative and Functional Medicine Clinic, where she cared for patients experiencing hormone imbalance, perimenopause and menopause symptoms, PCOS, infertility concerns, gut dysfunction, autoimmune conditions, cardiometabolic concerns, and environmental toxin exposures including mold and heavy metals.

Dedicated to Root-Cause, Whole-Person Care

Laurie earned both her Bachelor and Master of Science in Nursing from the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, graduating with highest academic distinction. She has pursued extensive postgraduate education in functional medicine, integrative psychiatry, and herbal medicine, reflecting her commitment to whole-person care that considers the interconnected nature of physical and mental health. She has also contributed to protocol development, interdisciplinary care coordination, and clinical education for nurse practitioner trainees.

She is known for combining strong clinical judgment with thoughtful listening and careful evaluation of each patient’s history. Laurie develops personalized treatment plans that integrate lifestyle medicine, nutrition, targeted supplementation, and advanced diagnostic testing when appropriate. Her clinical interests include hormone optimization, microbiome restoration, adrenal health, immune dysregulation, and personalized detoxification support.

 

Family Life

Outside the clinic, Laurie enjoys hiking, birding, tending to her herb garden, and reading. Her curiosity about nature and love of learning reflect the thoughtful, whole-person perspective she brings to patient care.

At KALE Functional Medicine, Laurie collaborates closely with Dr. Rowley and the care team to provide physician-led, root-cause care designed to help patients move beyond symptom management toward truly optimal health.

Kale Functional Medicine is exactly what I was looking for when my daughter kept getting strep, has swollen adenoids, and just kept getting sick. I’m so happy I found this clinic and I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to better there health and find natural ways to better your health.
