Integrative Medicine Consultation in Greenville, SC

Integrative Medicine Consultation at IHP Greenville. Dr. Hendry, DAOM — functional medicine, root-cause diagnostics, personalized care. Call (864) 365-6156.

An integrative medicine consultation at Integrative Health Partners in Greenville, SC brings together the best of conventional medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and functional medicine in a single, unified clinical assessment. Unlike a functional medicine consultation (which emphasizes advanced laboratory testing) or an acupuncture intake (which emphasizes Chinese medical diagnosis), an integrative medicine consultation is a broad strategic session designed for patients who want to understand how all the dimensions of their health — physical, biochemical, constitutional, lifestyle, and emotional — interact, and how to address them comprehensively.

Dr. William Hendry's unique qualification for integrative medicine consultations is the breadth of his training: a DAOM doctoral degree in Oriental medicine, extensive functional medicine expertise, Injection Therapy certification, AAOT membership, and 9 years of hospital privileges at Prisma Health. Very few practitioners in South Carolina combine this depth of training across multiple healing systems. When you sit across from Dr. Hendry for an integrative medicine consultation, you are receiving a clinical perspective that spans Chinese pulse diagnosis, functional blood chemistry interpretation, ozone therapy protocols, injection therapy, and Chinese herbal pharmacology — synthesized into a coherent treatment strategy.

How Integrative Medicine Consultation Works

Your integrative medicine consultation begins with a 90-minute structured intake. Dr. Hendry uses a whole-person evaluation framework that covers: (1) your current chief complaints and medical history; (2) Chinese medical diagnosis (tongue, pulse, pattern analysis); (3) functional medicine systems review (gut, hormonal, neurological, immune, detoxification); (4) dietary and lifestyle assessment; and (5) review of prior lab work and imaging. From this multi-dimensional assessment, he identifies the highest-leverage intervention points and builds a prioritized treatment plan.

The treatment plan may include acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, targeted supplementation, ozone therapy, injection therapy, dietary protocol, or a referral to appropriate conventional specialists — all coordinated around a coherent therapeutic strategy. Dr. Hendry acts as your integrative health quarterback, coordinating care rather than working in isolation from your other providers.

Your First Appointment

Bring all prior lab work, imaging reports, and a complete medication list. If you have seen multiple specialists, bring a summary of their findings. Plan for 90 minutes of focused discussion. This appointment is deliberately comprehensive — the goal is to understand your health from every angle before recommending specific treatments. Many patients describe the integrative medicine consultation as the most thorough health evaluation they have ever received.

Why Dr. Hendry for Integrative Medicine Consultation

Dr. Hendry's 5 research publications and hospital privileges at Prisma Health reflect a level of clinical credibility that allows him to communicate with your other healthcare providers as a peer — not an alternative. He can coordinate your integrative care with your conventional medical team, flag potential interactions between proposed integrative treatments and your medications, and make evidence-informed referrals to other specialists when appropriate. This collaborative, medically informed approach distinguishes IHP's integrative medicine from practices that operate in isolation from conventional medicine.
