Caroline Schier, MD
Welcome to Wildwood Functional Medicine! I’m Dr. Caroline Schier (pronounced “sheer,” though I much prefer “Caroline”). I’m an allopathic or “conventionally” trained medical doctor, board certified in family medicine, practicing in Portland, Oregon. Like most physicians, I entered medicine with the heartfelt goal to help patients achieve health. My training prepared me to provide acute care and to diagnose and manage diseases. But in practice, I recognized some of the limitations of our drug and procedure based conventional medical model, particularly when it comes to truly recovering from chronic conditions.
In my search for a more holistic approach, I discovered functional medicine and have since trained with both the Institute for Functional Medicine and the Kresser Institute for Functional and Evolutionary Medicine. This is the future of medicine, and I look forward to a lifetime of learning!
I offer functional medicine consultation services for patients who are motivated, engaged, and READY to take the steps necessary to preserve their health. Whether you are SICK and tired of being sick or simply looking to OPTIMIZE your health, I'd love to help you evaluate and improve your body’s current state of function, considering YOUR unique story and how you got to where you are today.
Please note that while I have experience as a primary care physician, I am currently focusing on functional medicine consultation services and will therefore ask that you maintain a relationship with your primary care provider for urgent needs, medication refills, and other coordination of care. Otherwise, I will be happy to work with you to restore and preserve your health and wellness.

Outside of my fascination with the function of the human body, I enjoy any chance to get outside, and I hike Portland’s trails nearly every day. I cherish sunshine & real food, and I enjoy the art & science of fusing glass.
“Wildwood” is named after Portland’s 30 mile Wildwood trail, wandering mainly through Forest Park, one of our country’s largest urban forest preserves. I strongly encourage patients to connect (or reconnect!) with nature as a significant step toward health and healing.
