I am Dr. Amber L. Drake, a Functional Medicine Practitioner with DrakeFM and the Director of Education at the Rockwell School of Holistic Medicine. My work is rooted in a deep passion for whole-person healing and a commitment to helping both practitioners and clients better understand the body through a functional, systems-based lens.

I focus on connecting science-backed health principles with practical, real-world application. By looking at the interconnected roles of nutrition, environment, lifestyle, and physiology, I help simplify complex concepts into clear, actionable insights that support long-term wellness.

In my role as an educator, I am dedicated to shaping the next generation of holistic practitioners. I develop comprehensive, evidence-informed curriculum that emphasizes critical thinking, ethical practice, and individualized care. My teaching integrates functional nutrition, botanical medicine, and foundational health sciences, with a strong focus on sustainable, whole-food approaches and root-cause exploration.

Through both my clinical and educational work, I remain committed to advancing accessible, integrative health education and supporting practitioners in building confident, informed, and impactful practices.
