Apply for Functional Medical Practitioner Certification

Professional recognition for practitioners focused on whole-person health, systems-based wellness, lifestyle factors, and individualized approaches to supporting optimal well-being.

The American Association of Drugless Practitioners (AADP) invites qualified individuals to apply for the Board Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner (FMP) credential. This discipline-focused certification is intended for healthcare professionals and qualified holistic practitioners who use functional medicine principles to understand the interconnected factors that influence health and support individualized wellness strategies.

Applicants may have completed programs in functional medicine, integrative health, naturopathic practice, holistic health, or related disciplines. The title of an applicant’s educational program does not need to match the certification title exactly; AADP evaluates the relevance and substance of the applicant’s education, credentials, and professional preparation.

Application Process:

  • Complete the application below

  • Submit your relevant education, credentials, certifications, and professional background

  • Provide documentation of your functional medicine education or training

  • Applications are reviewed for alignment with AADP standards

  • Approved applicants receive the Board Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner credential, professional certificate, and membership information

AADP certification recognizes professional education and preparation. It does not grant healthcare licensure, expand an existing scope of practice, or authorize services otherwise restricted by applicable law.
