First-Time Patient Tips
Come to your first appointment having completed our health history forms and brought any recent lab results from your doctor. We recommend wearing comfortable clothing for body composition testing. It's helpful to keep a three-day food diary before your visit to give us insight into your current eating patterns. Don't start any extreme diets before coming in - we want to see your normal habits. Bring a list of current medications and supplements, as these can affect metabolism. Be prepared to discuss your weight history honestly, including past diet attempts and what did or didn't work. Most importantly, come with realistic expectations and commitment to following our recommendations.
