  • Thomas Pennel's Bio:

    Thomas Pennel is an Account Executive who works in the supplement and nutrition space for Ortho Molecular Products. 

    After receiving a degree in Integrative Biology from the University of Illinois, a little health scare with his now fiancé gave him his first interaction with functional medicine. Seeing first-hand how functional medicine impacted her life drove him to seek out professional nutrition companies for the opportunity to work with providers and help shape patient care. 

    He has worked with over 1000 clinics across the Midwest, including a wide array of practitioners, clinics, and pharmacies. He has previously worked with practices across Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, and Pennsylvania and now resides in Iowa, where he currently works with over 400 active practices. He uses his experience to help providers consult and bring functional medicine to their patients with a strong focus on improving clinical outcomes.
