From the practitioner: What Patients Can Expect

Fill out extensive paperwork including a complete medical, environmental, dietary, lifestyle, environmental, and social history, and send prior to your appointment including labs, previous testing, and any other pertinent medical records for our review so we can be prepared for you.

Your first appointment will include reviewing your current concerns, detailed history, pertinent testing/labwork, reviewing your timeline, modifiable lifestyle factors, and organizing your clinical information. A physical exam may also be performed.

Initially, every 2 weeks and transitioning to every 3 to 4 weeks for follow-ups seems to ensure the greatest success among patients with multiple health concerns. However, we can determine that together.
