Voted Best Functional Medicine Doctor in The Woodlands, TX
Founder
Mila McManus, MD has been voted ‘Best Doctor’ by her community on Woodlands Online every year since 2010 when the annual competition began. She also has routinely been voted “Best Functional Medicine Doctor” in Living Magazine’s Readers’ Choice Awards.
Mila McManus, M.D., graduated at the top of her class from the University of Texas-Houston Medical School in 2000, and is board-certified in Family Medicine. After realizing that conventional medicine was failing to effectively treat or cure her own health issues as well as those of her patients, Dr. McManus went in search of answers and discovered natural ways to treat the root causes of symptoms and disease rather than band-aiding symptoms with prescription drugs. She became certified by the American Academy of Bio-Identical Hormone Therapy in 2004 and founded The Woodlands Institute for Health and Wellness where she treats men, women, and children of all ages. She is a certified GAPS practitioner, and specializes in Functional Medicine. She also holds certifications for Ozone UBI and Vitamin C IV therapy, Mistletoe therapy, and RGCC lab testing and therapies for cancer and chronic infections.
Dr. McManus is the former Medical Director for Avante Laser and Medspa and the acting Medical Director for Serenity Sips Bar & Wellness Emporium. She is also a member of the Texas Medical Association, The Institute for Functional Medicine, American Academy of Family Physicians, American Medical Association, Pan American Allergy Society, and The American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine. She has been featured on The Michael Berry Show, Dr. Hotze’s Wellness Revolution podcasts, Great Day Houston, and The Business Makers Radio Show, and published the second edition of Highway to Health: A Nutritional Roadmap in 2019. Dr. McManus is an accomplished public speaker and has been a contributing writer for I-Am Magazine and other publications. Dr. McManus also serves on the Board of Directors for the Organic Horticulture Benefits Alliance as of January 2024.
