FAQs
Getting Started
-
Functional and integrative medicine looks beyond symptoms to explore the factors that may be contributing to your health concerns-including nutrition, hormones, gut health, sleep, stress, lifestyle, environment, and other individual factors.
Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, we look at the whole person and use your health history, symptoms, labs, and health data to create a personalized plan.
Functional and integrative care works alongside conventional medicine, not instead of it. Our goal is to complement your existing healthcare and help you feel more informed, supported, and proactive about your health.

This free call is a brief, no-pressure conversation where we get to know each other and discuss your main health concerns and goals. It’s an opportunity for you to ask questions about my services and approach, and to determine if we’re a good fit to work together. We’ll also review next steps if you decide to move forward.

Services & Processes
-
During the initial appointment, I’ll take a comprehensive look at your health history, lifestyle, and current concerns. This helps me understand your unique situation and identify potential underlying causes of your symptoms. We’ll discuss your goals and priorities, and outline a personalized plan for moving forward.
-
Yes, I create personalized health plans tailored to your unique goals, lifestyle, and health needs. Each plan is designed to be practical, sustainable, and focused on helping you achieve the best possible outcomes.
Labs & Supplements
-
Yes, I’m able to order lab testing through a contracted physician. You won’t need to see or speak with the physician yourself, everything is handled behind the scenes to keep the process quick and seamless. During our appointment, we’ll determine which tests are right for you and place the order as part of your personalized plan. I am able to order a variety of testing including: specialty kit (at home tests), conventional lab testing, and some genetic testing.
-
Yes, typically, lab work done within the last 6 months is acceptable. However, it does depend on the type of testing and your current health status. In some cases, more recent or specific labs may be needed to ensure we’re working with the most accurate and relevant information.
-
Sometimes I do. While my priority is always to support your nutrition through whole foods, there are situations where supplements can be beneficial. If someone has specific deficiencies, dietary restrictions, or increased nutrient needs, I may recommend targeted supplementation to help bridge the gap. It’s always based on individual needs and never a one-size-fits-all approach.
Pricing & Policies
-
I do not take insurance at this time. I believe in providing the best care possible without allowing health insurance companies to dictate how I run my business and the ways in which I treat my clients.
However, I do accept Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) to make my services more accessible.
-
