ABOUT DR. Z

Dr. Brandy Zachary, DC, IFMCP, FMACP  

Dr. Brandy Zachary, DC, IFMCP (“Dr. Z”) is a powerful and unique Functional Medicine teacher, a successful 5th generation female entrepreneur, & award-winning practice owner. Her most recent launch in Functional Medicine went from $0-$7 million in less than a year! She just won the highly coveted 2 Comma Award, given to only 1% of online teachers and coaches!

Dr. Z has worked with thousands of health entrepreneurs on their branding, marketing, sales, speaking, clinical, and practice strategy. She loves to teach about the “Business of Health” and rapid practice growth. Her practical, actionable and fun approach to learning is a favorite among Functional Medicine practitioners.

Dr. Z has taught classes for or been interviewed by IFM (Institute for Functional Medicine), Rupa Health, Designs for Health, 3x4 Genetics, SIBO SOS, Health Means, SIBO Doctor and more.

She regularly teaches to multidisciplinary audiences including MD, DO, DC, ND, FNP, RN, PharmD, LAc, and other nutritional practitioners.

Dr. Z has extensive experience growing 6- & 7- figure practices. She has previously published peer-reviewed literature and created a unique personality profiling system published by McGraw-Hill, NY which was a best-seller and won awards in sales. She is the creator of the LabDX software which has revolutionized Functional Medicine lab analysis and is the first of its kind worldwide. 

Dr. Z will tell you she’s not a fan of sales, despite outselling Disney in their own park with the only non-Disney item, generating $150k+ in sales from the stage at a single speaking event and creating $250k+ in cash sales during the first year of a debt-free startup business. She then repeated that during the first year of her Functional Medicine practice with only 7 hours per week of nutrition visits. And then she repeated it yet again, this time during the period when the “world stood still” and many colleagues went under…let’s just say Dr. Z knows how to build a successful business in ANY environment!

It is precisely her “non-salesy”, high integrity, very efficient, patient-centered, “let’s keep this simple and be profitable” attitude that has made her a sought-after trainer for Functional Medicine practitioners.
