Atlanta's Functional Medicine
Physicians & Supplement Formulators

Most of Dr. Ava Bell-Taylor's patients have already been everywhere else. They've seen specialists, had labs come back “normal,” been told to manage their symptoms — and still feel exhausted, anxious, and disconnected from themselves. What they haven't had is a functional medicine physician who looks at the whole picture.

Dr. Bell-Taylor connects the dots that conventional medicine misses. Depression that's actually a hormone imbalance. Anxiety that's adrenal dysfunction. Brain fog that's a thyroid problem compounded by nutritional deficiencies. Postpartum symptoms that were never properly addressed and have been silently driving mood and metabolic issues for years. She finds the biological root cause and treats it — not just the symptom.

As a board-certified psychiatrist specializing in reproductive and integrative psychiatry, Dr. Bell-Taylor focuses on mental health during the hormonal transitions of menstruation, pregnancy, postpartum, infertility, and menopause. Her integrative approach goes beyond medication management — treating mental health by addressing the biological root causes of psychiatric symptoms, including cortisol dysregulation, hormone imbalance, inflammation, nutritional deficiencies, and epigenetic stress.

Dr. Bell-Taylor is also certified in energy medicine techniques including Reiki and Healing Touch. Her primary focus is on how the mind, body, and spirit interact — and how that relationship drives hormone imbalance, adrenal fatigue, and chronic disease. She formulated the Taylor MD supplement line to give patients the clinical-grade nutritional support their bodies need as part of a comprehensive healing strategy.

Dr. Eldred B. Taylor has spent over 20 years watching the same pattern play out in his patients: they take the wrong test, get a misleading hormone reading, and end up on the wrong treatment. Standard blood panels miss the free, bioavailable hormones that are actually doing work inside your cells. He built his entire functional medicine practice around fixing that diagnostic gap. His approach directly addresses cortisol imbalance and adrenal dysfunction — two of the most commonly missed drivers of fatigue, weight gain, and mood disorders.

Dr. Taylor is one of the country's leading experts in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) — using salivary hormone testing, which measures the hormones your cells can actually use, not just what's circulating in your bloodstream. Over more than two decades, he has helped thousands of men and women in Atlanta and across the country rebalance their hormones using this more precise, clinically meaningful approach.

As President of the American Functional Medicine Association (AFMA), Dr. Taylor has trained thousands of physicians, pharmacists, and healthcare providers across the United States and internationally in bioidentical hormone replacement and functional medicine principles. His work has been featured on television, radio, and podcast programs nationwide, and he is a co-author of two published books on hormones and chronic disease.

Beyond hormone optimization, Dr. Taylor specializes in IV nutritional therapy, integrative cancer support, energy medicine, and the relationship between lifestyle, stress, and gene expression. He co-formulates the Taylor MD supplement line to ensure every product reflects the same clinical standards he applies in his practice. His work on vitamin D deficiency and metabolic health has helped thousands of patients understand why standard labs often miss the real picture.
