I offer complimentary 15 minute consultations for any new patients. In this mini consult we will discuss your health care needs and review the services I offer in order to help decide if we are the right fit.  Please note that no diagnosis or treatment will be provided during this consultation.

The initial appointment is 60 minutes long. It is important for us to review your medical history and discuss your current lifestyle habits including diet, exercise, sleep, and any stressors in your life. Any indicated physical examinations and laboratory tests will be discussed, and I will answer any questions or concerns you may have. Based on my findings, we will work together to come up with a treatment plan that is most suitable for you and your health care needs.
