Your first functional medicine appointment is designed to uncover the root causes of your health concerns, not just treat symptoms. Our providers take time to listen, evaluate, and create a plan that works for your unique needs.
Here’s what you can expect:
- Comprehensive health intake reviewing your medical history, lifestyle, diet, stress, environment, medications and supplements.
- Full physical assessment to get your baseline, including a full body composition
- Advanced testing when needed, including labs for inflammation, hormones, allergies and nutrient balance.
- Personalized care plan built around nutrition, lifestyle, supplements, and therapies.
- Collaborative approach, you’re a partner in the process, not just a patient.
- Longer educational visit, usually a minimum of 1 hour, up to 3 hours, because NP David actually listens to you, answers your questions, and also educates you at the same time (so you’ll have a lot of “I wish I knew this a long time ago” moments)
