About Whole Gut Health

Why Whole Gut Health
Is Different

At Whole Gut Health, we move beyond symptom management and standardized functional medicine frameworks. Our approach is grounded in the understanding that the body possesses an innate capacity to heal when given the appropriate, individualized support—delivered with discernment rather than templates.

Through years of clinical experience, Dr. Shustina has observed that many chronic digestive conditions are influenced not only by physical imbalances, but also by unresolved emotional stress, trauma, and spiritual misalignment. When these deeper contributors are thoughtfully addressed, healing occurs in a way that is both meaningful and enduring.

Our care model emphasizes the mind–gut connection and integrates energy-based healing techniques with carefully individualized nutrition and supplement strategies, guided by clinical insight, ongoing assessment, and each patient’s evolving needs. Rather than relying on fixed protocols, care is refined over time—allowing treatment to remain precise, responsive, and aligned as healing progresses. This approach honors the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirituality while maintaining a high standard of medical accuracy.
Whole Gut Health offers a considered standard of care—one that values depth, discernment, and accuracy over automation. Each recommendation is shaped by the individual, ensuring the body receives support tailored to its unique needs.

If this philosophy resonates with you, we invite you to contact our office to schedule a consultation and begin a more intentional, individualized path to healing.

Consultations & Care Model

Dr. Alexandra Shustina offers comprehensive, one-on-one consultations designed to uncover the root causes of complex digestive and inflammatory conditions. Each consultation includes a detailed review of your medical history, prior testing, and records, allowing for a highly personalized and strategic approach to healing.

Recommendations may include advanced diagnostic testing, nutrition and dietary guidance, targeted supplements, lifestyle optimization, and mind-body interventions. A clear, individualized protocol is provided, along with thoughtful answers to your specific questions. Consultations may also include second opinions on medical diagnoses, treatments, or procedures, when appropriate.

Consultations are offered both in person and via telehealth, with the same level of clinical depth, time, and personalized attention provided in each format. Fees are identical for in-person and telehealth visits, as care is based on expertise, time, and individualized evaluation rather than location.
