What is Functional Medicine? And how is it different?
The current US medical model tends to focus on the downstream effects of diet, lifestyle, & toxic exposures mostly treating the symptoms but not addressing the root causes of disease and ill health.
Functional medicine is a very different approach, and can be best described as science-based, personalized, root-cause medicine.
Who We Are:
Functional Medicine Associates of Montana is a Medical Practice of Tom Flass MD and Brittany Coburn NP-C.
Opened in September 2024 in beautiful Kalispell, Montana.

What Sets FMA Apart?
We ARE partners and advisors in your health journey, but it is important to remember that the patient is ultimately the healer. FMA does not practice “passive medicine” and require our patients to be open to making dietary and lifestyle changes with science-backed guidance based on their personal history and lab results. We are the facilitators, but it is the patient that ultimately needs to do the work while being guided, inspired and motivated by our providers and associated health coaches and nutrition experts.
FMA believes that our combined training and experience in traditional western medicine combined with our training in nutrition and functional medicine allows us to use a blended approach and practice a “best of both worlds” style of medicine that is personalized and cutting edge without being fringe.
We are NOT a medical Spa or clinic that provides quick-fix “hacks” or the magic pill or injection to miraculously restore your health. If you are not open to doing the work and adopting a healthier way of living, this practice is probably not for you.
Conditions We Treat
Wellness & Nutrition
Gastrointestinal Health
Metabolic and Brain Health
How Can we Help?

Thank you Flathead Valley – Functional Medicine Associates of Montana
Brittany Coburn’s expertise, patience, determination, and genuine care for my overall well being had made an incredible positive difference in my personal health journey.
-Gretchen
I want to express my gratitude to Brittany for her exceptional care and attention. During a conversation at an appointment, she noticed that I’ve been struggling with stomach problems for years – something I’d come to accept as a permanent part of my life. Brittany asked thoughtful questions and rather than prescribing medication to simply mask the symptoms, she helped investigate the root cause of my issues. Her systematic approach and guidance through each step have been invaluable. Thanks to her, I’ve been able to heal my gut, reintroduce foods I never thought I’d eat again and lead a much healthier life.
-Courtney
I have struggled with unknown stomach issues for over a year before seeing Dr. Flass and I could not be more happy with how my body feels after just 2 months of his help! Dr. Flass went above and beyond with my treatment plan, finding the real underlying cause of what was causing my symptoms and helping me to heal from the inside out. There is so much I could say about his work and practices. I would strongly recommend his expertise to anyone who may also be struggling.
