About Us
As a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner and Board Certified in Integrative Medicine, Dr. Veselak has found that successful treatment is the result of finding the source of the problem, and not covering the symptoms with medications. With all chronic pain patients there is an underlying component that must be addressed if the patient is ever going to respond to conservative care and live a life without medications.
Within the first 10 days of therapy, which was only four treatments, I noticed a major decrease in my pain level. After about 10 sessions, my pain level diminished to hardly noticeable. I am very thankful for the treatment program because it saved my career and increased my quality of life more than I could have ever imagined.
Our Approach
Functional Medicine is a 21st century approach to evaluating and managing patients suffering from chronic conditions. It is based upon identifying the underlying cause of the disease process or the chronic pain. Rather than just treat the symptoms we incorporate a whole body analysis, with emphasis on dietary and lifestyle changes.
Our Story
Dr. Veselak has been in practice for over 30 years now.Our healthcare system is set up to deal with the acute patient but falls very short in chronic healthcare. Dr. Veselak approaches each case from a functional health perspective, concentrating on the root cause of each condition rather than merely the symptoms themselves.
Our Mission
We work to restore health through personalized lifestyle and nutrition. Our intent to go beyond looking at the label or the diagnosis, but rather focus on the cause as to “why” this developed in the first place. It is important to educate not only each patient on their wellness strategies but to provide lectures and educational talks to reach beyond our community. We aim to help as many people as possible and also have programs designed for long distance patients.
Why Functional Medicine?
What is Functional Medicine?
Functional Medicine is a very specific method and analysis, which incorporates the actual art and science of medicine. At Camarillo Functional Health, Dr. Michael Veselak focuses on treating chronic patients by examining their case from a functional perspective. This means, he will examine each case through labs, medical history, bloodwork, etc. to find the root cause of each problem.
Genetic Testing
Genetics testing through companies such as 23andme.com or Ancestry.com can provide useful information on understanding potential areas of weakness and disease susceptibility.
The raw data obtained from these tests can be overwhelming because we are provided with a blueprint of our DNA, and with that, a look into the specific gene expression that can cause various symptoms or diseases.

We have a range of packages which include time, either in person, or virtually, with our practitioners, as well as the option for one or more diagnostics, and re-testing at a minimum of 12 weeks following a personalized plan. Selecting the initial diagnostics and re-test will be dependent on your current health status.
Distance Patients
Since many of our patients travel great distances to come to our clinic, we have established programs to reduce and or eliminate the travel time involved. Please call our office to inquire about our distance programs.Some of our patients that have contacted us already have had their testing done through 23andme.
