What We Offer
Membership: Our 3 Step Program
Step 1: Comprehensive Initial Assessment
Your membership starts with a comprehensive 60 minute appointment with your physician. During this session, we’ll do a detailed review of your medical history, current medications and supplements, discuss your symptoms and clarify your health goals. We will also do a deep dive into your current lifestyle practices, including exercise, nutrition, sleep and stress levels. This is your chance to share what’s most important to you, allowing us to create a personalized plan that aligns with your lifestyle and aspirations.
Advanced Diagnostic Studies:
As part of the initial assessment, you and your physician will determine which advanced diagnostic tests are appropriate for you to better understand your unique health profile. By evaluating these biomarkers and studies, we can pinpoint underlying issues, assess your individual health risks, and tailor your treatment plan more effectively. Advanced diagnostic tests may include any of the following (as appropriate, billed separately):
Comprehensive laboratory panels
DEXA scan for body composition and bone density
Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) and VO₂ Max testing
Cancer screening (Galleri test, low dose lung CT, cologuard)
Coronary calcium CT
Step 2: Personalized Plan Development
At your second 60 minute appointment with your physician, we will review the results of all your advanced diagnostic studies and what they mean for you, your health issues and what your health risks are for the future. We will also review your personalized plan for achieving your goals and optimizing your health, which we will have developed based on your initial assessment and analysis of your diagnostic studies. This plan will include lifestyle change recommendations such as exercise regimen, nutrition, sleep and stress, as well as recommended treatments, supplements or medications. We will send indicated prescriptions at this time, including hormone therapy and GLP-1 medications as clinically indicated.
Step 3: Execution and Continuous Guidance
Once your personalized plan is in place, we’ll begin the implementation process, guiding you every step of the way. You’ll receive continuous support through monthly 30 minute appointments with your physician during which we will review your progress on short term goals, assess metrics that are important for your goals such as blood pressure and weight, assess your response and side effects to any medications, and make adjustments as needed. We will be with you throughout your journey, offering encouragement and making sure you have all the tools you need to achieve and maintain your long-term health goals. We generally will repeat labwork every 3-6 months to assess progress. You also have unlimited, direct access to your physician through secure messaging during your membership for support and questions.
