Your First Appointment

It’s important for you and your doctor to understand how the demands and stresses of your particular lifestyle, habits and circumstances may be impacting your health. This increases the likelihood of a successful treatment. Not everything your healing requires happens in the doctor’s office. Patient compliance – following recommended treatment protocols at home – is vital to the treatment process. If poor lifestyle habits are a factor in your illness, it’s up to you to make the necessary lifestyle changes your healing requires. No doctor can do these things for you. Any questions or concerns you have during the course of treatment can be addressed in a short phone consultation of 15 minutes or less.

What to expect
During your first phone call, our office manager will help you prepare for your initial visit. Prior to your first appointment, you will be asked to fill out a questionnaire detailing your medical history, have your doctor send us your most recent laboratory tests, or bring them with you when you come for your first visit. This initial visit can take up to 2 hours.
For your first visit, please bring in any pharmaceuticals or nutritional supplements you are taking, and your insurance information. In this visit I’ll look for the causes of your health concerns in order to develop a treatment plan. We’ll go over your written questionnaire and your most recent lab tests if you have them. We’ll discuss your medical history and review any pharmaceuticals or nutritional supplements you may be taking. We’ll consider and identify any current factors and life-circumstances that may be contributing to your health problems. After this, I’ll use my diagnostic tools to further detect and assess your condition. If necessary, I’ll order lab tests to confirm or clarify a diagnosis or get more information on the condition of your body.
If your symptoms are related to, or a result of unhealthy lifestyle habits, for more information, I’ll give you a dietary, exercise and lifestyle form to fill out for your next visit. If needed, I provide support and education to help you develop a self-care program based in healthy dietary, exercise and lifestyle habits. Self-care is the best preventative medicine there is. And poor self-care is a primary cause of countless ailments. No doctor can do your self-care for you. But if we both do our part, you can recover from most conditions and achieve a level of health and vitality that make life a pleasure.
