David Musnick, MD, MPH
David Musnick, MD, MPH, is board-certified in Internal Medicine, Sports Medicine, and Functional Medicine. He has been practicing Functional Medicine for 30 years and Internal Medicine and Sports Medicine for 37 years. His areas of focus include hypermobility syndromes, POTS, mold and biotoxin illness, Lyme disease and coinfections, viral and parasitic infections, electromagnetic field (EMF) effects and sensitivity, long COVID, autoimmunity affecting the brain and body, concussion, fatigue, heavy metal toxicity, insomnia, and cognitive decline.
Dr. Musnick integrates homeopathy, functional immunology, functional neurology, Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM), Autonomic Response Testing (ART), peptides, grounding, herbal medicine, limbic retraining, and other functional medicine approaches into his treatment plans. He has developed a detailed approach to the many components of long COVID, which he considers relevant to the care of many patients.
Dr. Musnick has developed methods for evaluating patients during the initial visit to guide treatment and improve outcomes. He assesses sensitivity, reactivity, hope, attitudes, and belief systems to identify potential barriers to healing and design interventions that support early success in complex, sensitive patients. He also uses a brain region questionnaire to assess cognitive function, tailor treatment programs to patients’ abilities, and guide approaches to cognitive decline.
His approach emphasizes treatment sequencing, including addressing EMF exposure, insomnia, and attitudes that may hinder progress early in care. He uses homeopathy and FSM with sensitive patients to support healing of the brain, vagus nerve, kidneys, lungs, heart, gastrointestinal tract, and liver. He also helps patients overcome challenges with scheduling and following treatment protocols.
He hosts the DR M Experienced podcast and shares his work on Instagram. His presentations offer practical clinical pearls for practitioners working with complex, sensitive patients.
