    Background

    Dr. Sunita Mann is a board-certified radiologist (Diplomate of the American Board of Radiology) who practiced radiology for 13 years in Ocean County. In 2013, Dr. Mann had a life-threatening anaphylactic reaction while performing a procedure on a patient and realized that she would be unable to continue in her specialty without placing herself at risk for another event. After recovering from this near-death experience, she began the journey towards wellness and decided that her new-found knowledge could help others dealing with chronic diseases or general feeling of being unwell. She went on to train in functional medicine so she could offer this approach to her patients.

    Dr. Mann’s background in imaging diagnosis provides a perfect background for her new role in creating an individualized, and truly patient-centered evaluation and treatment plan. She believes that “usual and standard” assessments and treatment decisions are not the same for everyone suffering from a specific chronic disease or combination of symptoms. Dr. Mann believes that the underlying cause of many chronic diseases may be similar but the course of action for each patient will differ significantly based on their unique genetic predispositions, lifestyle choices, and nutritional factors. She uses her Functional Medicine training to develop individualized techniques based on a complete assessment of the individual, instead of treating a list of symptoms. During an initial comprehensive consultation with Dr. Mann, she will take a complete history, as well as a complete nutritional and biometric analysis. In addition, she will recommend any laboratory testing that is likely to help explain the cause of the problem and then recommend a course of action in which both Dr. Mann and the patient are partners in the healing process.

    Today Dr. Mann’s practice focuses on three areas: functional medicine, hormone replacement therapy for perimenopause and menopause, and medical weight management. She works alongside her patients’ other physicians and believes in clear, honest information about the benefits and risks of every option.
