Scottsdale Functional Medicine – IBS, SIBO & Digestive Health

Scottsdale Root Cause Gut Treatment w/ Dr. Houston Anderson

Chronic digestive issues rarely resolve with quick fixes. At our Scottsdale functional medicine clinic, Dr. Houston Anderson & Dr. Donohoe focuse on identifying and correcting the root causes of IBS, SIBO, bloating, abdominal pain, food reactions, and chronic gut dysfunction.

Using a combination of functional medicine, clinical nutrition, and Applied Kinesiology, we help patients who have:

  • Persistent bloating

  • IBS symptoms (constipation, diarrhea, mixed type)

  • Suspected or confirmed SIBO

  • Food sensitivities

  • Chronic inflammation

  • Fatigue related to gut dysfunction

Our Scottsdale location serves patients throughout North Scottsdale, Old Town, Arcadia, Paradise Valley, and the greater Phoenix area.


What Makes Our Approach Different

Most gut treatments focus on symptoms. We focus on root-cause correction, including:

  • Nervous system dysfunction affecting digestion

  • Hidden food sensitivities

  • Microbiome imbalance

  • Motility issues

  • Chronic inflammation

  • Stress-related digestive dysfunction

Applied Kinesiology allows us to evaluate how the nervous system, muscles, and organs interact — giving us a deeper understanding of why your gut isn’t healing.

SIBO Treatment in Scottsdale

SIBO is one of the most common causes of chronic bloating and IBS symptoms. Our SIBO approach focuses on:

  • Reducing inflammation

  • Restoring proper digestive function

We do not rely on one-size-fits-all protocols. Every SIBO case is unique, and your treatment plan will be customized.
