What to Expect

Your first appointment is a comprehensive 90-minute visit focused on understanding your health history, current concerns, and goals.

Before your appointment, you’ll complete detailed intake forms so we can make the most of our time together. During the visit, we’ll review your symptoms, health history, nutrition, lifestyle, medications, supplements, and any previous lab results.

You’ll leave with a clear initial plan, which may include recommended testing, nutrition and lifestyle strategies, supplement or medication guidance when appropriate, and next steps for follow-up care.

Here's What Is Included:


It’s a conversation and a chance to finally feel heard. Your comprehensive initial visit includes: 

  • Review of your health history, symptoms, medications, nutrition, lifestyle, and previous testing
  • Discussion of your primary concerns, priorities, and health goals
  • Personalized recommendations for nutrition, lifestyle, supplements, and additional testing where appropriate
  • Clear plan outlining your next steps
  • Guidance on timing and type of follow-up care that may be helpful 

 

What happens next

At the end of your appointment, we’ll discuss the next steps that make the most sense for you.

Some patients benefit from a follow-up visit to review progress, discuss lab results, or adjust their care plan. Others may simply need time to begin implementing their initial recommendations.

Established patients can choose between individual follow-up appointments or a monthly care option, depending on the level of support they prefer.

There is no requirement to enroll in a long-term program or membership to become a patient.
