Integrative Consultation

An integrative medicine consultation provides comprehensive evaluation from a physician trained in both conventional and complementary approaches. The consultation is typically longer (60-90 minutes) and addresses not just symptoms but the whole person - body, mind, spirit, lifestyle, environment. The physician creates a treatment plan that may include conventional treatments, lifestyle modifications, nutrition, supplements, mind-body practices, and referrals to complementary practitioners.

Expect an extensive initial visit covering medical history, lifestyle, diet, stress, relationships, spirituality, and goals. The physician may order conventional labs plus functional testing. They create a comprehensive treatment plan integrating appropriate therapies from both conventional and complementary medicine. You're an active partner in decision-making. Follow-ups monitor progress and adjust treatment. The approach is patient-centered and holistic.
