About

Whole Family Medicine operates in Decatur, Georgia, where Dr. Marion Owen brings together family medicine and functional medicine under one roof. She completed her residency at Emory Family Medicine Residency Program in 2003, then spent years in clinical practice in Alpharetta before building this Decatur-based practice. Dr. Owen holds certification from the Institute for Functional Medicine, making her the only primary care MD in metro Atlanta with that credential. Nurse Practitioner Susan Castle joined the team in 2010, adding deep expertise in hormone health, lifestyle change, and dietary management for chronic illness.

The practice serves patients of all ages, from pediatric well visits to adult chronic disease management. Dr. Owen pursues root causes rather than symptom suppression, drawing on advanced diagnostics from specialty labs including Genova Diagnostics, Boston Heart Labs, and Igenex. The clinical toolkit includes NutrEval nutritional assessments, comprehensive microbiome profiling, IgG food allergy testing, salivary hormone panels, and 23andMe genetic analysis. Whole Family Medicine keeps its membership deliberately small. The practice currently maintains a waiting list and admits about three new patients each month.
