STACEY LUETMER, MD
Welcome to Flourish Health!

It has always been my dream to practice medicine in an integrative, holistic, person-centered way.  That dream has finally come true with Flourish Health. ​

​I am a family practice board certified physician who has worked in the Alexandria Lakes Area for the past 15 years in general family medicine as well as urgent care and acute care.  I started my functional medicine journey five years ago when I realized that the Western Medicine model alone was simply not working for many of my patients, as well as my own family members.  Subsequently, I completed the coursework through the Institute for Functional Medicine.  In addition, I have taken Chris Kresser’s year-long Functional Medicine course, Deanna Minich’s Rainbow nutrition course, as well as many other educational courses. I continue to devote about 30% of my time to ongoing education and research. See my full list of credentials here.

I am so excited to share that knowledge and use it to help others on their journey to flourish!  Health is so much more than the absence of disease.  It is about embracing who we are and maximizing our genetic and God given gifts to be the best version of ourselves so we can impact the world around us.  It is my goal to take a personal journey with each of my patients to truly embrace full health and wellness.  ​

​Finding Stacey was like finding Big Foot--You had always hoped and prayed there was someone out there, but highly doubted you would ever come across what you were looking for. She is a very rare breed, indeed.

​Dr. Stacey is really good. She offers answers to questions that do not always involve drugs. Alternative treatments with holistic methods. Then drugs. AA++ We missed you!!!

What Flourish Offers

​Flourish Health is primarily a membership practice. Many patients seek me out because they have been bounced around from specialist to specialist and have finally resolved to find and address the root cause of their health challenges. Other patients come to Flourish because they are generally healthy and want to maintain and build on a healthy lifestyle and understand how functional medicine complements the goal to remain as healthy as possible and avoid chronic diseases before they start. The research required and mutual commitment to a plan lends itself to an annual membership model where the patient/physician relationship is ongoing. 
​
Flourish memberships cater to individuals, couples, and families, and more information about plans can be found here.
I provide education for members in small group settings on topics such as CIRS and Mold Illness, GI Health, Hashimoto's and Thyroid Health, Toxins, and a host of other topics. I also provide multi-session online courses that anyone can subscribe to and watch anywhere, anytime. Each session comes with companion notes and links referenced in the course. Access to all my education is also available through the $45/month Base Membership. 
Not everyone needs a membership. A small percentage of my practice includes individuals who may have been patients of other functional medicine providers in the past who need to revisit a specific health concern, or are interested in a functional medicine approach to a traditional service such as an annual physical. For these patients, I offer Hourly Consulting.
Do you need to be seen for an acute service but can't be seen in a timely manner, have a high deductible, or seek a functional approach in a calming environment to address your concern? In response to requests from Flourish members and their friends and families, I have devoted a portion of my clinic hours to address acute care needs of the community. From cold symptoms to wound care to rashes, I am generally available within a day or two, or more urgently depending on my schedule, to take care of you. 

More information about my acute care practice can be found here. 

How Flourish Works

Step 1: Take Readiness Assessment
This online assessment provides a baseline measure of your readiness to commit to some of the changes you may need to make to achieve your health goals. 
Step 2: Receive a Free Consultation Call
Following your assessment, we will call you to discuss your assessment and determine whether or not Flourish Health appears to be a good fit for you and/or your family. 
Step 3: Complete Case Review and Schedule Initial Consultation
If it appears there is a fit between your needs and Flourish Health, you will be provided with a more extensive online assessment that will provide a thorough baseline of your health history, health goals, and expectations of Flourish for Dr. Luetmer to review. Dr. Luetmer generally spends about an hour reviewing your assessment  before your initial consultation. This initial preparation means you can hit the ground running in your first consultation and conclude your appointment with a clear plan to move forward. 
Step 4: Initial Consultation
Your first appointment with Dr. Luetmer will be 90 minutes (longer for couples and families). During this consultation, you and Dr. Luetmer will work through your assessment, strive to identify the root cause of your health challenges, and develop a roadmap for you to achieve your best possible health. 
Step 5: Commit to a Plan and Flourish!
The initial consultation will provide enough information to determine the annual membership plan that best suits your needs, should you and Dr. Luetmer decide Flourish is a good fit for your needs. Dr. Luetmer does not promise magic, but does promise her commitment to your health. Choosing a plan and Flourishing means both Dr. Luetmer and you are committing to working on a plan for success. The membership is designed to provide ongoing access to Dr. Luetmer, with follow-up appointments, email and phone access, group visits, and ongoing education built in. Remaining committed to your plan becomes easier with the support of peers and access to your doctor throughout the year.
