From the practitioner: What Patients Can Expect

First visit appointments for new patients typically last 90 minutes, depending on history and conditions. In this time frame, the practitioner will gather an extensive history and analyze your genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors which may contribute to chronic illness. We will also conduct a comprehensive physical and order further lab testing, as indicated.
Follow up visits will occur after the lab results have been received (typically 2-3 weeks after the initial visit). These appointments last 60 minutes, during which time the practitioner will review and explain lab results and prescribe a customized treatment plan for the patient.
