Dr. Cammy Benton founded Benton Integrative Medicine in 2016 based on a guiding belief that shapes every aspect of the practice: When patients are given time, truth and the right tools, the body already knows how to heal. With more than 25 years of experience as a physician and over a decade devoted specifically to integrative and functional medicine, Benton approaches health care as both a science and an exploration—one rooted in curiosity, connection and trust in the body’s innate intelligence.

As an Integrative and Functional Medicine physician who is onsite daily, Benton provides a depth of clinical oversight that distinguishes her practice from many wellness clinics. She actively supports both patients and the nurse practitioners who work alongside her, ensuring continuity of care, clinical rigor and shared learning across the team. Her commitment to growth is reflected in extensive advanced training, including certification through the American Board of Holistic & Integrative Medicine, the Institute for Functional Medicine and ongoing education in peptides, hormone health, nutrition, Ayurveda, homeopathy, hypnotherapy, ketamine-assisted therapies and psychedelic medicine. This broad foundation allows her to look beyond symptoms and address root causes, empowering patients to truly understand and participate in their healing process.

Benton Integrative Medicine positions itself as a practice that goes “Beyond Medicine.” It blends Direct Primary Care with Functional Medicine, Hormone and Peptide Optimization, Sexual Health services and vitality-focused wellness therapies. The practice emphasizes prevention, personalization and partnership, pairing concierge-level access with deeply individualized care. Patients are not rushed through appointments; instead, they are given the time and space to feel seen, heard and supported as collaborators in their own health journey.

At the heart of the practice is Benton’s signature framework: Explore, Educate, Empower and Equip. Patients are invited to explore their health story, physiology and patterns with curiosity rather than judgment. Education helps them understand the “why” behind symptoms and imbalances, while empowerment and practical tools enable meaningful, sustainable change. This approach often leads to what Benton calls “motivation, momentum and magic”—a shift that occurs when patients feel aligned, informed and supported. She often says, “Our bodies hold intelligence, our stories hold answers, and our healing holds power.”

The clinic offers a comprehensive range of services under one roof. Direct Primary Care and Functional Medicine form the foundation, allowing for relationship-driven care, advanced diagnostic testing and continuity over time. Hormone Optimization and Peptide Therapy provide evidence-informed tools to support vitality, metabolism, longevity and overall wellness. Sexual Health and Intimacy Medicine address confidence, connection and quality of life through both medical and integrative approaches. 

The practice also offers a variety of wellness and vitality therapies designed to enhance energy, recovery, detoxification and whole-person well-being including BioCharger sessions, red light therapy, acupuncture, infrared sauna therapy, health coaching and integrative chiropractic and naturopathic support. By combining primary care, functional testing, coaching and therapeutic modalities, a seamless and empowering patient experience is fostered.

The Benton Integrative Medicine team includes 13 dedicated staff members: one medical doctor, two nurse practitioners, a naturopathic doctor/chiropractor, two health coaches, a phlebotomist and clinical support specialist and a skilled administrative team. Each role supports a shared mission of delivering accessible, concierge-style care centered on connection, autonomy and vitality.

A unique aspect of the practice is its focus on possibility rather than disease management alone. Patients are encouraged to explore root causes, optimize physiology and actively participate in their care. Time-rich relationships, patient autonomy, informed consent, integrative therapies, functional diagnostics and wellness optimization tools come together to create an environment where individuals feel validated and empowered to make meaningful lifestyle changes.

Looking ahead, the practice is expanding its educational and community offerings, including monthly courses, live Q&A sessions with Benton, expanded coaching services and guided group and BioCharger sessions open to the community. These initiatives will deepen connection, foster understanding and strengthen a growing community centered on prevention, vitality and self-discovery.

Ultimately, Benton Integrative Medicine helps patients connect more deeply with themselves by offering what traditional health care often lacks: time. With it comes understanding—of one’s story, body, emotions and intuition. This association transforms healing from a purely clinical process into a deeply personal and empowering journey, rooted in trust in the body’s inherent capacity to heal.
