What to Expect

Upon scheduling your first appointment, you will receive a detailed health questionnaire that inquires about various facets of your life and health. The questionnaire is an important tool for both you and your naturopathic doctor. It enables us to learn about the factors affecting your total health.

1st Clinic Visit • In this two-hour visit we will investigate your total health history. Appropriate laboratory testing will be scheduled if necessary. Your healing process has begun!

2nd Clinic Visit • This visit commonly begins with a physical exam, followed by a review of findings from the lab testing, physical exam, and the initial visit. A personal treatment plan is discussed, including what to expect as you heal.

Follow-up Visits • A follow up visit is necessary in two to six weeks to ensure your health is improving as expected. Modifications in your treatment plan may occur. Future appointments will be scheduled depending upon your progress towards health and specific needs.

Remember, our goal is not only to help you improve your health now, but to prevent future illnesses as well. It's much easier, more sensible, and less expensive to keep a body healthy than to allow an illness to take root and then work to eradicate it. Coming in for periodic preventive healthcare visits is a valuable way for us to stay current with new developments in your health and to prevent future disease.
