Let's talk about what's actually going on.

Your first visit is an hour-long, one-on-one deep dive with your provider. We go through your full health history, what's worked and what hasn't, current medications, and any prior testing so we understand the whole picture, not just today's symptoms. Bring any past lab work or imaging with you, it helps build a complete history from the start.

After your first visit we run a comprehensive panel covering thyroid, hormones, metabolic function, nutrient levels, and cardiovascular markers we send out for deeper analysis. If you've had recent labs done elsewhere, bring those too, we'll factor them in rather than repeat everything unnecessarily. Your second visit is a full walkthrough of what the results mean and what we recommend.

Most people need 6 to 10 visits before feeling like themselves again, typically spread over 6 to 12 months. Your case may move faster if it's one focused issue, or take more time if the picture is more complex. Your provider lays out what makes sense for you at your second visit, no pressure to decide before then.

We'll tell you honestly. If your situation needs a specialist referral, more urgent workup, or falls outside what functional medicine addresses well, we'll say so rather than trying to make it fit. The two standalone visits are designed to give you real information either way.
