First-Time Patient Tips
Prepare for your initial consultation by gathering your medical records, current medications, and any previous lab results. Come fasting for 12 hours to ensure accurate lab work. Bring a list of all supplements you're taking, as some may need to be temporarily discontinued. Be honest about your eating habits, stress levels, and sleep patterns, this information is crucial for developing your treatment plan. Expect your first visit to take 90-120 minutes. Follow pre-lab instructions carefully and stay hydrated. Most patients begin seeing improvements in energy and mood within the first few weeks, with weight loss typically beginning in weeks 3-4.
