Maria Maj studied medicine for six years in Poland before moving to France for her residency in the Antilles. She now practises in the 12th arrondissement of Paris, half general practice and half functional medicine, within Laurent Fogel's clinic in Charenton-le-Pont. She trained on the Castronovo micronutrition diploma and the longevity medicine diploma, and is working towards the microbiome diploma. Her guiding line: it all starts in the gut.
The turning point came during her general practice residency, on an outpatient placement. Maria watched patients come through with digestive symptoms, hormonal disorders, chronic fatigue. The consultation lasts fifteen minutes. You prescribe an antispasmodic for the stomach pain and move on to the next one. She realised nobody was looking for the cause.
Micronutrition and functional medicine supplied the missing tools: in-depth assessments, the digestive axis, the hormonal axis, the microbiome. She joined Laurent Fogel's clinic and found a collegiate way of working where the doctors talk constantly about the protocols and products that work. To deliver it, she draws on several micronutrition brands according to each patient's tolerance and constitution.
