iHeal

What iHeal does

iHeal Medical is a privately held, founder-owned functional and environmental medicine practice headquartered in Katy, Texas, that serves individual patients with chronic, unexplained symptoms who have not obtained answers through conventional medical workups. The practice was founded by Dr. Matthew Everett, MD—a board-certified emergency medicine physician, IFMCP (Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner), and member of ISEAI (International Society for Environmentally Acquired Illness). iHeal delivers care primarily via telehealth to patients in jurisdictions where Dr. Everett holds active medical licensure, with a single physical office at 26717 Westheimer Pkwy, Ste 504, Katy, TX supporting in-person needs.

The practice's clinical methodology is centered on the proprietary 5M Framework, which maps five drivers of chronic illness across two dimensions—Exposures (Metals, Molds, Microbes) and Biological Responses (Mast Cells, Mitochondria). Service delivery follows a three-step process: Assessment (history and symptom pattern evaluation via a website-based questionnaire), Testing (specialty laboratory panels including Mycotoxin Panels, Heavy Metal Testing, IGeneX Tick-Borne Panels, Vibrant Wellness panels, and Real Time Labs), and Treatment (personalized detoxification and restoration protocols). Revenue is generated through professional consultation fees for initial and follow-up visits, ongoing care management, and separately billed specialty laboratory testing; pricing is not publicly disclosed and is quoted during the inquiry/booking process.

iHeal's go-to-market is direct-to-consumer, relying on educational website content, a free symptom assessment tool for lead generation, and organic SEO for condition-related queries such as mold illness, CIRS, chronic fatigue, and Lyme disease. Distribution is effectively single-channel: direct telehealth consultations booked through the website. The practice operates without disclosed institutional investors, external funding, patents, formal partnerships, or non-founder leadership, and functions architecturally as a solo-practitioner medical practice rather than a scalable multi-provider platform.
