FAQ

Functional medicine is a root-cause approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing the underlying imbalances in the body rather than just treating symptoms. It integrates science-based diagnostics with nutrition, lifestyle, and personalized care to restore optimal health. Grounded in ancestral wisdom and modern research, functional medicine views the body as an interconnected system, emphasizing prevention, balance, and long-term wellness.

Everyone can benefit from functional medicine! Whether you’re struggling with chronic illness, fatigue, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, autoimmune conditions, or simply want to optimize energy, longevity, and vitality, this approach helps you regain control of your health. Functional medicine is ideal for those who seek a personalized, holistic, and proactive way to feel and function at their best.

When you click on the services page, you can choose to either schedule a Free 15-Minute Discovery Call or jump right into the paid Initial Consultation. Prior to the Initial Consultation, you will fill out intake paperwork that will help me get to know you and your medical history.

After the Initial Consultation, you will be sent a link with a lab order that you will be able to complete at a lab near you. Additional testing like stool or urine testing will be shipped directly to you. I will also schedule you for a Results appointment (typically 4 weeks after the Initial Consult) where we will go over all the results in great detail and discuss treatment recommendations. 

I do not accept insurance.

Functional medicine focuses on root-cause healing, personalized care, and long-term wellness, which goes beyond the symptom-based model covered by insurance. Insurance companies prioritize quick fixes and standardized treatments, limiting the time, testing, and customized protocols needed for true healing. By working outside the insurance system, I can offer unrestricted, high-quality care, ensuring you receive the thorough assessments, functional lab testing, and in-depth guidance necessary for lasting health transformation.

You can use an HSA/FSA on your blood work though. 

The Initial Consultation is $299 which does not include labs. The lab cost varies significantly ($250 or more) depending on what type of testing you are looking for and/or what tests seem important after the Initial Consultation.

The Results Appointment is $299.

After these two appointments are complete, there are two options for continued care. 

If your lab results and/or symptoms indicate significant areas that need attention, or if you know you need accountability, I recommend 3-month 1 on 1 coaching. This includes six 30-minute sessions with me, where we dive deep into key factors like nutrition, lifestyle, toxin exposure, and more to optimize your health. You'll also receive exclusive supplement discounts and weekly meal plans to support your progress. This coaching plan is $2500.

For those with minor health concerns or mild lab abnormalities, or for clients who have already completed a care plan, 45-minute follow-up sessions are available for $250 per session. These sessions provide ongoing support, adjustments to your plan, and guidance to maintain long-term health.
