Have you been from one doctor to another, one clinic to the next, and still don't have answers?
I dig deep and get to the root cause, so we can fix what you need to live your life fully.
This Is How I Work
Initial Comprehensive Consultation
This is the first step for every new patient. Before we meet, you complete the intake paperwork and send in any labs, imaging, or records from the past 12 months. I read all of it. Then we sit down for a 60-minute visit, in person, by phone, or by video, to go through your history, connect the dots, and decide what, if anything, needs testing.
Normally $497. We're currently refining our new-patient intake process, and patients who come on board during this period receive the initial consultation at $350.
Follow-Up Consultations
$350 per hour, in person, by phone, or by video. Time is prorated by the minute, so you're billed only for the time used. Follow-ups include review of anything new you've sent in for that visit. Between visits, brief questions are handled through secure messaging at no charge; see the Patient Communication & Follow-Up Policy.
Intake Paperwork
Your intake includes:
- Health and medical history
- Major complaints and health goals
- Symptom assessment
- Current supplements and medications
Along with the paperwork, please include any recent lab results, imaging reports, and other testing, along with a note on any treatments or plans you've already started or completed and how they went. This gives me a picture of what has already been looked at and tried, so we build on it rather than repeat it. The more complete your intake, the more we accomplish in the first visit.
My Approach
My approach differs considerably from the conventional model. I don't prescribe medication and I don't replace your primary care physician. I work from a functional medicine model: find the root cause, then nurture the body back with diet, targeted supplementation, lifestyle changes, and education. It's about empowering you, not managing you.
I'm a highly detailed person who leaves no stone unturned. This works best for people with chronic or complicated cases: digestive problems (IBS, GERD, SIBO, bloating, constipation, leaky gut), autoimmune and thyroid conditions, metabolic syndrome, chronic pain and fatigue, headaches, insomnia, brain fog, hormonal issues, and anyone who has been bounced from doctor to doctor without answers.
Testing is chosen case by case. Nothing is ordered by default. Most functional testing isn't covered by insurance, so I spend the time up front understanding your case in order to avoid unnecessary tests. Every test I do recommend is there to replace guesswork with data.
Not Sure Yet?
Book the free 15-minute call. It's a short conversation to find out whether you're a good candidate for my care. I can't make treatment recommendations on this call, since I haven't reviewed your records yet, but I can tell you whether I think I can help and what the next step would look like.
