Personalized Consultations

Healthcare today is more complicated than ever. Patients are often left trying to make
sense of conflicting medical advice, online information, supplements, testing options,
and recommendations from multiple specialists. An individual consultation provides
expert guidance tailored to your unique situation.
With more than 10 years of experience practicing Functional Medicine and managing
complex medical conditions, Lynn helps patients navigate confusing healthcare
decisions with evidence-based, individualized guidance.
Consultations are designed to complement—not replace—the care provided by your
primary care provider and specialist.
A consultation is ideal for patients who need an experienced clinician to evaluate the
“big picture.” Rather than replacing your primary care provider or specialist, Lynn helps
you understand your options, prioritize next steps, and make informed decisions about
your health.


Why Should I Schedule a Consult?
A consultation can help you
:
– understand complicated medical problems
– decide which tests are worthwhile
– review supplements
– organize multiple specialist opinions
– prepare for doctor visits
– avoid unnecessary expenses
– understand treatment options
Just a few examples of common problems consultations can address:
1) One patient was spending nearly $1,000 each month on supplements
recommended by websites and non-medical sources. After reviewing her
regimen, we identified duplicate ingredients, potentially dangerous dosages,
unnecessary supplements, and possible medication interactions. Her supplement
costs were cut in half, her medication regimen was simplified with her primary
care provider, and she reported improvement in her symptoms over time.
2) Another patient had become frustrated by persistent symptoms and, like many
patients, turned to direct-to-consumer laboratory testing in search of answers.
She spent more than $2,500 on tests, many of which were unnecessary or not
relevant to her condition. A consultation beforehand could likely have saved her
significant expense while identifying the testing most likely to provide meaningful

answers. Once the appropriate testing was selected, we were able to identify the
information needed to move forward with an effective treatment plan.


A consultation may be especially helpful if you:
– Have multiple chronic medical conditions
– See several specialists
– Feel your care is fragmented
– Are unsure which supplements are worthwhile
– Want a second opinion before purchasing expensive testing
– Want help interpreting laboratory results
– Need help preparing for an upcoming specialist visit
– Want someone to review the “big picture”


During your consultation, Lynn may:
– Review your medical history
– Evaluate medications and supplements
– Review laboratory or imaging results
– Identify questions to discuss with your physicians
– Explain how different medical conditions may interact
– Help prioritize next steps

situations.

to scheduled appointment time. Additional time is billed in 15-minute increments based
on the total consultation time. To help us stay within your preferred time, please let Lynn
