What can I expect on my first visit?
The
first visit is between 60-90 minutes. One of the things that
distinguishes Naturopathic medicine from traditional medicine
is the amount of time spent on information gathering. We look
at many different aspects of health and disease and realize
that everything is connected. So, we talk about not only the
physical problems that you are having, but we also look at
the rest of the body and how it is functioning. We look at
the amount of stress in your life, how you are sleeping, and
what you are eating.
Because part of my mission is education, I also spend a few
minutes discussing what is happening in your body. We talk
together about the options available to help with your health
needs. Of course, we discuss both conventional treatments
as well as more natural alternative treatments.
My feeling is that the more information you have about whatis
going on and what your different options are, the better decision
you are going to make about how to take care of your health.
My job is to give you all the options and then support you
in that decision. I want us to become partners, working together
for your health.

I also recommend that you bring any pertinent lab work or other medical records with you.
Upon calling the office and setting up an appointment, you will be directed to this web site in order to download the new patient forms in advance.
If you are able to prepare the forms before your first appointment, please arrive at the office 10-15 minutes early. If you are unable to complete the forms before your appointment, please come to the office 35 minutes before your scheduled appointment.
The first visit is usually 1.5 hours and will be a chance for you to talk about your health and for me to get information specifically about your overall state of health and lifestyle in order to prescribe an effective individualized treatment. If you have any recent lab work or test results this is a good time to bring copies to the office.
Subsequent to this visit I schedule a time the following week when you can stop by the office and pick up your homeopathic medicine. I then schedule a return visit in either 2 weeks or 1 month depending on your situation. In the time between the first and second visits you may be asked to do some homework on your own.
