Functional Medicine in Fort Collins, Colorado
You have been told your labs are “normal” — but you still feel exhausted, foggy, or not like yourself. At Golden Road Medicine, board-certified physician Dr. Courtney King practices functional medicine in Northern Colorado that starts where a a conventional fifteen-minute appointment ends: by taking time to listen to you, using personalized comprehensive testing, and searching for the root cause of why you are not feeling your best.
Now seeing patients in Fort Collins & Northern Colorado. In-person visits are available at our Fort Collins office, plus telehealth for established Colorado patients throughout the state.
A different kind of doctor’s visit
Conventional medicine is built to name a disease and match it to a drug. Functional medicine asks a different question: why is this happening in the first place? Instead of treating your thyroid, your gut, and your mood as three unrelated problems, Dr. King looks at how they connect — how hormones, blood sugar, inflammation, sleep, and stress feed into one another — and builds a plan to address the upstream cause, not just quiet the symptom.
That means longer appointments, testing that goes beyond a standard panel, and a treatment plan built around you rather than a population average. For many Fort Collins patients, it is the first time a doctor has connected the dots.
Meet Dr. Courtney King, M.D.
Dr. Courtney King is a board-certified physician who left the constraints of conventional practice to do medicine the way she believes it should be done — with time to listen and the tools to dig for answers. She is certified in the Bredesen Protocol (ReCODE) for cognitive health, and cares for patients across hormones, metabolism, gut health, and complex chronic conditions. As an M.D. practicing functional medicine, she bridges evidence-based conventional training with a root-cause approach — you get both.
What we help Fort Collins patients with
Dr. King works with adults across Northern Colorado on the conditions functional medicine is best suited to — the ones that don’t fit neatly into a single specialty:
- Perimenopause, menopause & hormones — bioidentical hormone therapy and root-cause care for hot flashes, weight changes, low energy, and mood shifts.
- Cognitive health & the Bredesen Protocol — a certified ReCODE approach to brain fog, memory concerns, and dementia prevention.
- Thyroid & adrenal (HPA-axis) — for fatigue, stubborn weight, and “normal” thyroid labs that don’t match how you feel.
- Gut health & SIBO — bloating, irregularity, and food reactions, worked up properly rather than managed with guesswork.
- Long COVID & complex fatigue — a systematic workup for symptoms that lingered long after the infection cleared.
- Metabolic health & weight — insulin resistance and metabolic reset, addressed at the cause.
What to expect
It starts with a free discovery call — a no-pressure conversation to see whether functional medicine, and Dr. King, are the right fit for what you’re dealing with. If you move forward, your first full visit is a deep history and a testing plan built for your situation. From there, Dr. King translates the results into a clear, personalized protocol and works with you over time to adjust it. This is partnership medicine, not a one-and-done prescription.
