Dr. Vikki Petersen Email & Phone Number

I am the founder of Root Cause Medical Clinic with my husband Dr. Richard Petersen, as well as co-author of the bestselling book "The Gluten Effect." We are Certified Functional Medicine Practitioners.I have been practicing for 25 years and my goal is to create saner healthcare methods that rely less on masking symptoms with drugs and more on treating the underlying root cause of problems via natural means whenever possible. We call this Root Cause Medicine.A further goal is to broadly increase awareness of gluten sensitivity and celiac disease such that fewer people suffer from the multiple diseases and symptoms that these conditions create. Life expectancy increases when those who are intolerant remove gluten from their diet. I am committed to creating national awareness of these conditions.My clinic, Root Cause Medical, is a unique medical clinic that combines internal medicine, clinical nutrition, physical therapy and chiropractic all under one roof. We work together as a team to resolve health problems.Root Cause Medical is a destination clinic and patients travel to see us from all over the country as well as internationally.Specialties: Certified Clinical Nutritionist, Doctor of Chiropractic, specialist in diagnosing and treating gluten sensitivity and celiac disease.
