Information for Patients

From the practitioner: About My Practice

Turning Tides has been providing nutrition & lifestyle help since 2010. We are a local and virtual FM whole body healing sanctuary in Bradenton, Fl. We offer our area's most cutting-edge healing modalities coupled with a functional medicine/nutrition approach. There are many reasons why we love functional medicine. One is because it provides hope to those who have lost hope. It considers why someone is experiencing health problems. It is an opportunity to regain one's life and be free to live again. We are very grateful to be a part of your healing journey and can't wait to experience your transformation with you and your family.

We are a family & veteran-owned company catering to the needs of individuals, families, and our community.

From the practitioner: What Patients Can Expect

First & foremost, Dr. Hutchinson offers a safe place to tell your most intimate health/life story.

First step: Call today to schedule one of our discovery calls. You will receive a simple but important 1-pg document to complete before the discovery call.
Next step: Once on board, you will be given a packet of comprehensive forms to complete before our initial appt. Also, during the call, we will determine the best and most advantageous route for your next steps.

What to expect next: she takes your story along with a comprehensive health and lifestyle history, conv and functional labs, and other clinical questionnaires and surveys and map out a program designed specifically to your needs using the most current tools in our FM toolbox.
