Consultation and Assessment
During your initial visit, we will conduct a thorough assessment of your health. This includes gathering detailed information about your medical history, family history, medications, and any supplements you’re taking. We’ll also discuss your lifestyle, diet, and perform any necessary physical examinations to better understand your overall health.
If lab testing is needed to provide further insights, we will talk about that as well. Importantly, we will explore your health goals and concerns to ensure that your treatment is tailored to your individual needs.
Duration and Frequency of Sessions
Typically, this first appointment lasts about one hour, giving us ample time to delve into these important topics. Following our assessment, we’ll develop a tailored treatment plan, with follow-up visits scheduled as needed to monitor your progress and make any adjustments. This collaborative process emphasizes your active role in your healing journey.
