from Functional Medicine Doc Talk · host Dr. Kurt Woeller

Dr. Jon Kaiser began his medical career in 1987 at the height of the AIDS pandemic. As a primary care provider to hundreds of HIV/AIDS patients, he became an early pioneer of an integrative treatment approach--one that combined the best of natural and conventional medical therapies.Over the past four decades, Dr. Kaiser has expanded this work to focus on complex chronic conditions, including fibromyalgia, myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), gastrointestinal disorders, and neuroinflammatory illnesses. His clinical approach emphasizes underlying mechanisms of disease rather than symptom suppression alone.An expert in mitochondrial biology, Dr. Kaiser has published multiple research papers examining the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in chronic disease. He serves on the clinical faculty of the University of California School of Medicine in San Francisco and is the author of two books on the integrative treatment of HIV/AIDS.His forthcoming book, Full Spectrum Healing: How to Build Health and Recover from Chronic Illness, integrates decades of clinical experience with current research to provide patients and practitioners with a practical framework for treating complex chronic conditions, including Long Covid, ME/CFS, fibromyalgia, and autoimmune disease. The book is scheduled for publication by Johns Hopkins University Press in early 2027.Check Out Dr. Woeller's Websites:Functional Medicine DocTalkIntegrative Medicine Academy Autism Recovery SystemSunrise Medical Center
