How the Program Works
Where do you start?
Traditional medicine tends to isolate issues, involve specialists, and focus on symptom mitigation. In contrast, I focus on integrating ALL aspects of your health. While small changes can sometimes result in dramatic shifts in health, functional medicine is a detailed process that involves tweaks and changes. It is very much like peeling the layers of an onion.
Initial 1-hour Initial Consultation.
My program starts with scheduling a 1-hour Initial Consultation. My clients then submit a very detailed health history and symptom questionnaire, that will also include dietary and lifestyle questions. They are also asked to submit all past labwork and any previous functional tests. I integrate all of this information to look for patterns and trends that have led to your health today. I take the symptoms and look for an upstream root causes, as well as downstream implications. The Initial Consultation is designed to connect the dots in your personal health journey, and to share with you how I can help. The client with walk away with several actions to implement immediately.
3-month Customized Program
Following the Initial Consultation, a client will enter into a 3-month Customized Program. We will dive deep into what is driving your unique health issues and customize a wellness plan based on your distinct needs and lifestyle. You didn’t get into your current health situation overnight. It has most likely been slowly brewing for years. It would be impossible to provide all of the tools necessary to achieve optimal health with one session. It would also most likely be overwhelming.

During this 3-month period
I will most likely recommend further testing for more insight.
The program may also involve recommendations for dietary and lifestyle changes and the addition of supplements.
We will meet twice monthly
via phone or web platform with detailed follow up notes and informative handouts and links.
My ultimate goals for each client are empowerment and independence.
Following the 3-month program
Many clients will feel competent to continue on their own following the 3-month period, possibly with an occasional check in. However, some clients with more entrenched health issues may choose to continue on a month to month basis for further guidance.
