Step 1: Initial Medical Consult
We begin every patient journey with an initial medical consult. This is not a quick 15-minute appointment where we check your vitals and breeze through your symptoms. Instead, we will take the time to discuss your history and goals. We will also discuss the Restorative Model we use and make a plan focused on your goals.
Many people love working with the Restorative Medical Center because we truly listen!
Step 2: Blood Work-Up
Functional medicine uses testing to see what’s going on under the surface. Using advanced lab work, we check the status of your nutrition, hormones, and toxins, as well as kidney, liver, cholesterol, and blood sugar function.
Our team does not guess when it comes to your treatment plan. Instead, we use scientific data to pinpoint what’s going on with your health. Lab fees depend on the patient’s preferred lab. Let’s uncover the root cause of your symptoms.
Step 3: Follow-up and Dose Adjustments
It may take time to hone in on your ideal wellness plan. Every three to six months, we will review your progress and adjust doses of medications and/or treatment. Some issues can take a while to improve, and everyone is different. While you may notice your gut health improve within two weeks, your hormone balance may take longer to respond to treatment.
Don’t worry, the Restorative Medical Center is here to support you every step of the way.
