Information for Patients
From the practitioner: About My Practice
My primary focus is preventative care integrating a multifaceted approach to wellness through balancing hormones, optimizing genetics, nutrition, and blending traditional with alternative functional and integrative medical solutions. My scope of practice is varied, I enjoy cognitive challenges. I am often a last resort for many patients who have seen numerous other doctors without getting any answers. Virtual medicine has extended the reach of my practice to an international audience, however I'm happy to see you in-person also. In Kuwait, Dr. Shaya has collaborated with Fawzia Sultan Healthcare Network leveraging their healthcare presence along with shared goals of bringing functional and integrative medicine to Kuwait (currently virtual)
From the practitioner: What Patients Can Expect
• In person and virtual visits
• We are a relational practice, we want to get to know you rather than just be a healthcare transaction.
• We are shaking up the status quo of how healthcare is experienced, and you, as our patient, are a participant in the shake up. We like it that way.
• Online portal for secure communication and medical record access.
• Lab results are posted on portal in real time prior to review by physician-ample time to review before appointment.
• If we don't get it right the first time, we will listen and keep trying until we do.
• You will leave with a written plan.
• This clinic was built based on patient suggestions and recommendations. We adjust as you suggest.
• We care.
