Functional Medicine in Santa Rosa, California
If you’re in Santa Rosa, Sonoma County, or Northern California and you’re done being handed another prescription without an explanation or sufficient testing, or just being told you are “fine”, Golden Road Medicine offers a different path. Board-certified physician Dr. Courtney King — licensed in California — practices root-cause functional medicine for patients throughout the state of California, combining convenient telehealth with periodic in-person intensive visits in the Santa Rosa area.
Serving California patients by telehealth. Dr. King is fully licensed in California and cares for patients throughout the state virtually (currently serving Sonoma, Mendocino, Napa, and Humboldt counties, as well as San Francisco, the Bay Area, and Los Angeles), with periodic in-person intensive days scheduled in Santa Rosa for hands-on visits.
Root-cause medicine, wherever you are in California
Functional medicine asks why you feel the way you do rather than simply labeling it. Dr. King looks at how your hormones, gut, metabolism, sleep, and stress interact — and builds a plan to correct the underlying driver instead of chasing each symptom separately. Because so much of that work is history, lab interpretation, and ongoing plan adjustment, it translates remarkably well to telehealth: you get longer, more thoughtful visits without the drive or the waiting room.
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.
How care works for Santa Rosa patients
Most of your care happens by secure video visit from home, on your schedule. When hands-on assessment or a deeper reset is called for, Dr. King batches in-person intensive visits in the Santa Rosa area — concentrated days set aside for California patients who want time face-to-face. You get the convenience of virtual care and the option of seeing your physician in person, without relocating your health to a clinic across town.
What we help Sonoma County patients with
Dr. King works with California adults on the complex, whole-body concerns functional medicine is built for:
- 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.
