Your Visit
What to Expect at Your Appointments
Intake appointment (up to 90 minutes)
Your first appointment is an intake session and will begin with a thorough discussion about your health concerns and medical history.
A complaint-oriented physical exam (these are on an as-needed basis) and laboratory test results may be required for assessment and diagnosis.
Please bring your laboratory results, medications and vitamin supplements for review.
If you do not have lab work, a requisition for lab work may be given to you to have tests done before your next appointment.
Treatment strategy appointment (up to 60 minutes)
This appointment is scheduled about 2-4 weeks after the intake appointment.
This time allows me to gather lab results and assess your information so that I can create a personalized treatment strategy to get you on the right track towards good health.
At this appointment, we will discuss the proposed treatment plan and ensure that it is do-able for you.
Follow-up appointments (up to 45 minutes)
These follow-up appointments are scheduled at least 1-2 months apart. They are an opportunity to evaluate your response to treatment and discuss next steps.
If acupuncture is part of your plan, then this would be part of the session.
