Stafford, VA · Functional Medicine
Busy isn’t a diagnosis. If fatigue, brain fog, or symptoms that never quite resolve have become your normal, we look for the root cause — for patients across Stafford, a short drive south on I-95. Start with an initial appointment.
Stafford runs on full calendars — commuters, military families, and professionals who rarely get a day off from being needed. So when energy fades, sleep stops helping, or digestion turns unpredictable, the explanation is usually the schedule. Your labs come back “normal,” you’re told to manage stress, and you’re back in a year.
Functional medicine starts with a different question: why? Dr. Hoff looks at how your hormones, gut, thyroid, metabolism, nutrition, sleep, and stress affect one another, using advanced lab testing that goes well beyond a standard panel. The aim is to find the upstream driver and build a plan around it — rather than adding a prescription for each new symptom. You can read more about the approach on our functional medicine page.
Your first visit and lab work happen in person at our downtown Fredericksburg office. After that, many follow-ups can be virtual, so staying on track doesn’t mean another afternoon out of your week.
Tired on waking, flat by mid-afternoon, and no clear reason on a basic panel.
Losing the sharpness your work depends on, and not knowing why.
Bloating, irregularity, or food reactions that come and go without an answer.
Symptoms that point to your thyroid, even when a single TSH looks fine.

Learn moreRoot-cause work depends on detail. When did the fatigue start? What changed around then — a new job, a move, a deployment, a new baby, a new medication? How do you sleep, eat, and handle stress in an ordinary week? Those answers rarely fit into a rushed appointment, and they’re often where the most useful clues are.
That’s why your first visit with Dr. Hoff is unhurried. We cover your full history before ordering testing, so the labs answer specific questions about you. If your symptoms point toward hormones or weight, your plan may connect to our hormone therapy or medical weight loss care for Stafford patients — all coordinated by the same physician.

“Dr Hoff goes above and beyond to listen to you and respond with a program that can truly change your life. He’s very down to earth, easy to talk to, a wealth of knowledge, and genuinely cares about improving your life experience. I wish I would’ve found him and his staff sooner. I would give six stars if it were possible, thank you!”
“Dr. Hoff has truly changed my life in less than six months. I went from waking up every morning feeling miserable and constantly bloated to now feeling healthy, energized, and excited to take on each new day and experience life again. More importantly, I genuinely believe he is helping save my life in the long run by focusing not only on treating symptoms, but on improving my overall health and quality of life. Dr. Hoff is exceptionally knowledgeable and highly skilled in his field, but what truly sets him apart is the genuine care and compassion he shows his patients — something that has become far too rare in healthcare today. I’m also incredibly grateful for the entire staff and everyone there for creating an environment where patients feel heard, supported, cared for, and truly valued.”
“Outstanding experience from start to finish. Dr. Hoff is extremely professional and well-organized, with a friendly and welcoming staff. Dr. Hoff is knowledgeable, thorough, and truly took the time to listen and explain everything clearly. I felt genuinely cared for and confident in the treatment plan. Highly recommend!”
