What TejoMed members say about Functional Medicine

Members come to TejoMed looking for a doctor who digs deeper, and they write about finding one: contributing factors instead of quick fixes, testing that looks beyond the obvious, and honest answers to the question behind the question. Functional medicine, practiced the way members hoped it would be.

Wonderful experience! I've had personal functional health doctors in the United States and TejoMed seems to equal or exceed my previous experiences at a fraction of the price. So nice to have a one-stop shop for all of my health needs. Navigating a medical system in Portuguese isn't always easy...this makes it easy.

Met with Dr Ares for a health review and consultation. He was considerate and spent plenty of time with me to get a sense of my health, concerns, and issues. He was approachable, kind, thoughtful, and listened to my issues. He provided some recommendations and tests to help get to root causes. I felt that the time spent was generous and that the approach was more holistic than many other doctors I have had.

I completed my first meeting at TejoMed with Dr. Batista and wow! I am so thrilled I found them. She spent 90 minutes with me going through my history and current experience. We are running all the tests I was hoping to run (the ones I am used to running with my former Functional doctor in the US) and I feel really confident and happy she will help me get to the bottom of what I am currently experiencing. Can't recommend this company enough!

Extremely thorough, professional, holistic and kind approach. I am very curious about health and find most practitioners underwhelming but Luisa exceeded all my expectations. I feel like I have learned a lot, and been taken good care of.

Hands down the best doctor I’ve seen! Dra Luísa is kind, careful, thoughtful and up to date on the most recent research. After trying 10+ other doctors, she’s the only one who took the time to discuss each of my questions carefully and reviewed my prior labs pointing out things that other doctors had missed and recommending a very detailed and thoughtful follow up plan. She truly has a functional medicine / preventative health approach which I haven’t been able to find anywhere else in Lisbon. And within minutes of our 90 minute appointment, she had uploaded detailed notes about everything we discussed into a very easy to use app. I feel so grateful to have found TejoMed and Dra Luísa!

Dr Ares was extremely kind and knowledgeable in our meeting. Best doctor I’ve worked with. He took the time to ask me questions and really get to know me. He made me feel respected and heard! When I had a medication he hadn’t heard of before; he was upfront and honest about this and told me he would research it. I really appreciate that there was no BS with this doctor and TejoMed, and his functional medicine approach to family medicine. I would recommend TejoMed and Dr. Ares to anyone looking to help improve their health and lifestyle.

I recently had an appointment with Dr. Luísa, and it was an exceptional experience. From the moment I arrived, I felt genuinely welcomed and cared for. Dr. Luísa took the time to listen attentively to all my concerns, asking insightful questions that helped uncover the root of my issues. Her personalized approach made me feel truly understood. She is not only knowledgeable but also communicates in a way that is easy to understand. I appreciate her focus on preventive care and treating the whole person rather than just addressing symptoms. I finally feel like I have a doctor who truly cares about my well-being. I highly recommend Dr. Luísa to anyone seeking compassionate and comprehensive medical care.

TejoMed has been a life-changer for my family medicine, GP, primary care in Lisbon. After years of dealing with the rushed and impersonal service at clinics and hospital systems like CUF, I finally found a place where my doctor actually takes he time to listen and understand our needs. The personalized care here is unmatched. My doctor knows me, my history, and my health goals, which makes every visit feel like a true partnership in my well-being. No more waiting weeks for appointments or feeling like just another number in the system. What I love most about TejoMed is their focus on preventative care and functional medicine. Instead of just treating symptoms, they dig deep to find the root causes of health issues, creating a personalized wellness plan that actually works. You get comprehensive testing and a full checkup for your annual physical ]. If you an expat or local and are tired of the usual medical runaround and want a doctor who truly cares about your long-term health, I can’t recommend TejoMed enough! They also speak fluent English. Best GP / family medicine doctor here in Lisbon.

Just had my first consult today. Was looking for an in-depth assessment of my health, and seems like we’re on the way! Also loved that doctor was open to both pharmaceutical and herbal medicine, and that she was open to go beyond superficial testing!

Tive a minha primeira consulta e estou super impressionada pela abordagem holistica, detalhada e completa praticada pela Dra Luisa. Senti que prestou imensa atençao ao que eu expliquei e que soube ajudar-me a revelar as minhas reais necessidades de modo gentil, subtil e astuto. Assertiva, com grande capacidade de comunicaçao que se demarcam a nivel da qualidade relacional e tambem na partilha de conhecimentos. Este novo espaço clinico, TejoMed, é mais do que uma tipica clinica, porque ha claramente um foco logo à partida em compreender o corpo como um todo, prestando a devida atençao ao detalhe e tambem possibilitando uma perspectiva preventiva à qual nao estamos habituados em cuidados de saude! Recomendo vivamente. Bastante em conta tendo em conta os ganhos a curto-medio e decididamente longo prazo!
