Supplement Recommendations in Greenville, SC

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

Professional supplement recommendations at Integrative Health Partners are based on clinical assessment, functional medicine testing, and Dr. Hendry's evidence-based training — not generic wellness trends. Many patients arrive taking 10–20 supplements purchased online or at health food stores, spending hundreds of dollars monthly on compounds that may be redundant, poorly absorbed, or inappropriate for their specific physiology. Dr. Hendry provides clarity, precision, and professional-grade access to targeted supplementation.

How Supplement Recommendations Works

Supplement consultation involves reviewing your current supplement regimen, identifying what to keep (evidence-supported for your specific condition at appropriate doses from quality manufacturers), what to discontinue (redundant, contraindicated, or ineffective for your presentation), and what to add (based on identified deficiencies and therapeutic goals). Dr. Hendry then recommends or dispenses professional-grade supplements from our in-house dispensary.

Why Dr. Hendry for Supplement Recommendations
