I am thrilled to endorse Dr. Robert Kornfeld's holistic, functional and regenerative medicine training course. As a board-certified podiatrist who recently started his own practice, I find this course exceptionally transformative. Dr. Kornfeld masterfully blends holistic approaches with traditional podiatric practices, offering a comprehensive and insightful curriculum. His focus on a cash-based model presents a pioneering and ethical shift from traditional insurance-dependent practices, opening a safe pathway to diversifying your practice and a bright future if done correctly.
Dr. Kornfeld's passion and expertise in podiatry are palpable. He delivers hands-on training enriched with real-world scenarios, ensuring practical application of the course material. His dedication to our understanding and skill development has profoundly enhanced my abilities and perspective in podiatry.
This course has not only honed my skills but also broadened my professional horizons, adding unique value to my practice. I highly recommend Dr. Kornfeld's course to any podiatrist aiming to advance their knowledge and adopt an innovative approach in patient care. It represents a significant investment in your professional growth and the future of podiatric medicine.

"What a wonderful course!!! The information provided will allow you to skyrocket into a direct-pay functional practice. This is individualized medicine at its finest, addressing root causes rather than symptom management (which we have mastered to its own demise). Each lesson is lucrative in its own capacity. You will most certainly easily earn back your investment with the knowledge from this course. I highly recommend the mentorship from Dr. Kornfeld without reservation; his expertise is unmatched."
Dr. Meaghan Howe Stoinski, DPM

"As a holistic practitioner and a naturopath for over 20 years, I attended many, many conferences and took numerous programs over the years.
However, by far, this program has been the most practical, inspiring, and empowering to achieve a successful functional medicine practice.
Now I feel that I can move forward to make a huge change in my holistic practice for the better.
I highly recommend this program to all my podiatry colleagues to expand their ability to help their patients more holistically and naturally.
I know their patients will appreciate it much more for sure!"

"The Institute for Functional Podiatric Medicine is the answer I have been searching for. As I have grown in my practice and experience, I have realized that western medicine does not have all the answers and no matter how well you address the biomechanics and musculoskeletal etiology for patients, they still have overall systemic inflammation and epigenetics contributing to their pain. The foot and ankle are connected to the rest of the body. This course lays out the basics of functional medicine, acquaints you with many diagnostic tools and therapies and walks you through the dynamics of treatment through numerous case studies that tie it all together. Dr. Kornfeld supports you through it all and then sends you case challenges to help you hone your functional medicine skills. Thanks to Dr. Robert Kornfeld, I am now equipped with the knowledge and testing and treatment modalities to help patients, not just the foot ankle, but the entire patient. I highly recommend this course"!

“Great course. I recently completed my first viewing of Dr. Robert Kornfeld's robust course called Fast Track to a Functional Medicine Direct-Pay Practice for Podiatrists. The information is well organized into short videos while not being overwhelming.
The detailed case studies he presents tie the knowledge learned in the didactic lessons into real patient treatment protocols.
When I discuss incorporating the holistic approach with my patients they are receptive and willing to pay out of pocket.
Thank you for sharing this with our profession Dr K!"
Dr. Daniel Waldman, D.P.M., FACFAS

"I thoroughly enjoyed Dr. Kornfeld's course and consumed all of it within 24 hours because it was well laid out. I enjoy being able to offer patients something unique and medically sound beyond a short visit, prescription or surgery. Humans are much more complex than that and this has helped me create a unique niche proposition that people are receptive to and are willing to pay for. I look forward to helping patients who would otherwise be dismissed in the traditional setting simply because conventional medicine couldn't make time for them. I recommend this course to an innovative thinker willing to step outside the box to help their patients."
Dr. Tea Nguyen, D.P.M.

"Dr. Kornfeld's course is an excellent introduction to functional medicine for podiatrists. He outlines how to use labs and patient history to evaluate underlying causes of chronic pain. As foot and ankle specialists, we need to evaluate the whole patient, not just the foot and its biomechanics. There are several case studies that outline the thought process of how to start a treatment regimen and optimize outcomes. I highly recommend the course".
Dr. Michele N. Kurlanski, D.P.M.

"I took this course to begin reclaiming my life as a podiatrist. I have grown weary of the constant constraints of the insurance companies and needed a starting point for exactly how to do this. Dr Kornfeld's course has not only jump started this process for me but has both inspired and motivated me. The lessons are well done presentations with his commentary on specific topics and numerous case presentations. There is a lot of information provided and Dr. Kornfeld’s support is invaluable. This course has enlightened me to more natural methods of care and this, combined with our current knowledge of biomechanics and podiatry, will make me an even better practitioner.
The course is a BARGAIN! I honestly would have paid double the amount! It would be very difficult to take the time to acquire all this information on one's own. And as a wonderful bonus, I get to watch it over and over to review and hone in on concepts that I am less familiar with.
I looked at this as an investment to rid myself of insurance company constraints, more time for me and happier patients. I highly recommend this course!”
Dr. Hans Blaakman, D.P.M.

"Wow! I would highly recommend taking Dr Kornfeld's course. It was truly mind blowing and well worth the investment. This is an excellent course for those podiatrists that want to think outside the box and truly help heal your patients suffering with chronic foot and ankle pain. Dr. Kornfeld does an incredible job of educating and giving you the tools you need to identify the underlying root causes of the patient's chronic foot and ankle pain and heal them through a mechanistic approach. He provides an amazing paradigm to heal patients suffering with podiatric pathology and help uplevel their overall health and wellness. Dr. Kornfeld will also show you how the underlying mechanisms of immune burden are a very important part of understanding why your patients are suffering with chronic foot and ankle pain. He also provides you excellent treatment protocols to help heal your patients of their symptoms. I really enjoyed the actual patient case studies he provides in his modules to apply what you learned utilizing the functional medicine approach. Dr Kornfeld is also very supportive and responsive to any questions you may have related to the course. I am very appreciative for Dr. Kornfeld to offer this amazing course to us and share his wisdom through the many years he has been practicing functional podiatric medicine. You truly are an innovator and pioneer. Thank you so much Dr. Kornfeld and keep up your great works"!
Dr. Anthony Weinert, DPM, FACFAS

"Dr. Kornfeld's course provides you with a great primer to be able to expand your knowledge in the area of functional medicine and provide your patients with the best care possible that will allow you to be able to financially extract yourself from insurance companies should you choose to do so. The information you learn is not provided anywhere else in your training and is presented in an organized manner. I highly recommend taking the course to expand your knowledge and benefit your patients. You also get the benefit of having access to a group of Podiatrists to share your common vision".

"Functional medicine has always been fascinating to me, yet I considered it out of reach, because of the time that I thought would be involved in learning it. Several MDs in my area have changed their practice to incorporate functional medicine and I never truly understood what it was. I find patients appreciate an option to understand some of the root causes of their symptoms that may not be immediately obvious. Allowing patients to have the choice to become engaged participants in their own healthcare makes for a more robust doctor-patient relationship and provides for more comprehensive patient care.
The course lays out an easy to understand approach to add functional medicine principles into your daily practice. Dr. Kornfeld is 100% with you along the way to reinforce the concepts and guide his students. It’s not a once and done, but rather he has created a community of podiatrists that are supportive of each other and he willingly shares his experience and is quick to respond to questions. IT’S A GREAT COURSE! I highly recommend it".
Dr. Stephen Lasday, DPM, FACFAS

"I came across this course in my search for other options to help patients that traditional medicine had failed. I am so happy I did! This course is an excellent introduction to functional medicine offered by Dr. Kornfeld. The course is well designed and presented. Dr. Kornfeld lays out a comprehensive approach to functional medicine diagnostics and treatments as well as how to be successful as a direct-pay doctor. As we all know, things have changed over the years and so much about insurance participation has placed great burdens on our practices.
Not only does Dr. Kornfeld deliver the information in a comprehensive manner, but he also provides coaching and mentorship. He sends updates when new treatments become available and negotiates discounted deals for those of us who have taken the course. I strongly believe this will change the way I practice and will greatly benefit my patients. The patients I have spoken to about it already can’t wait till I am ready to move into this paradigm and begin evaluating them and recommending more helpful treatments.
I highly recommend this course. Thank you Dr. Kornfeld for all that you have done in presenting this course and encouraging providers to continue learning new and innovative treatments for patients".
Dr. Martin McGrath, DPM, FACFAS
