Our Process
Functional medicine is a holistic patient-centered approach that addresses the root cause of health issues rather than merely treating symptoms. We offer an array of diagnostic tests to gain an in-depth understanding of your body’s current state. Our comprehensive testing options include:

We begin with an extended appointment, giving us ample time to explore your detailed health history, current symptoms, lifestyle habits, and environmental factors. This in-depth conversation allows us to gain a thorough understanding of your unique health story and identify potential underlying issues.
Comprehensive Testing
Based on the insights gathered during your consultation, we recommend a tailored set of advanced functional medicine tests and traditional lab work. These may include:
- Blood Lab Tests
- Adrenal Testing
- Telomere Testing

By combining cutting-edge functional medicine tests with conventional lab work, we obtain a complete picture of your physiological function and identify imbalances or dysfunctions that may be contributing to your health concerns.

Once your test results are available, we schedule a follow-up appointment to review the findings in detail. Our functional medicine providers take the time to thoroughly explain your results, connecting the dots between your lab work, health history, and current symptoms. We encourage an open dialogue, answering your questions and ensuring you have a clear understanding of the factors influencing your health.
