We provide a comprehensive, evidence-based approach to holistic health care, focusing primarily on consultation services including:
• Balancing thyroid and adrenal hormones – Adjust thyroid medication to keep the TSH, FT3, and FT4 in optimal ranges
• Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy – Available for men and women
• Reducing cardiovascular disease risk – Including Apoprotein (a) SNP, elevated apolipoprotein B, homocysteine, atherosclerosis
• Working with individuals to rebalance gut issues – IBS, including flatulence, diarrhea, constipation, gastrointestinal reflux disease; Gastroparesis
• Recommending vitamins and supplements – Discounts available via Fullscript
• Implementing detoxification protocols – Mycotoxins and other biotoxins, heavy metal burden
• Individualized diet and lifestyle recommendations based on genetic SNP’s, personal preferences, and one’s relationship with food
• By utilizing Apollo Health, provide tools and resources to help individuals assess their cognitive health, track their progress, and implement personalized treatment plans. This approach aims to address the root causes of cognitive decline and promote brain health through a combination of lifestyle changes, nutritional guidance, and medical interventions
Our goal is to find the root cause of health issues and restore patients to a state of wellbeing, fostering natural healing. We integrate the latest research in nutrition and neuroendocrinology into our practice.
Specialized Testing
We offer an extensive array of specialized tests via many different Lab Companies:
• Rupa Health is a health-tech company that simplifies the process of ordering and managing lab tests for practitioners and patients. It provides a unified platform where healthcare providers can order, track, and view results from a wide range of lab tests from over 30 different lab companies.
Types of testing we might order from Rupa Health:
– GI Effects Microbiome profile provides a cursory evaluation of the overall health of the GI tract, including insights into digestion/absorption, inflammation/immune response, gut microbial metabolites, and potential dysbiotic or pathological organisms.– covered by Medicare
– IgG Food Antibodies panel measures IgG antibodies to 87 commonly consumed foods to determine food sensitivities.– covered by Medicare
– NutrEval® FMV evaluates a variety of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, and other biomarkers to determine nutritional deficiencies and imbalances – covered by Medicare
– The MycoTOX Profile is a comprehensive mycotoxin test. It uses advanced mass spectrometry to screen for eleven different mycotoxins, from 40 species of mold, in one urine sample.
– The Organic Acids Test (OAT) provides a comprehensive metabolic analysis of a patient’s overall health, including intestinal yeast and bacteria, vitamin and mineral levels, oxidative stress, neurotransmitter levels, and oxalates.
• Quest Diagnostics – we pass along deep discounts to individuals who prefer to pay cash for labs (we can send lab orders to Lab Corp, local hospital facilities, etc. Discounted cash rate only available from Quest Diagnostics).
Types of testing we might order from Quest Diagnostics or other facilities:
– Cardio IQ Advanced Lipid Panel (Quest Diagnostics only) is a comprehensive blood test that provides a detailed assessment of cardiovascular health. It goes beyond the standard lipid panel by including advanced biomarkers and detailed lipid measurements
– Homocysteine is a blood test that measures the level of homocysteine, an amino acid, in your body. Elevated homocysteine levels can indicate a deficiency in vitamins B6, B9 (folate), or B12, and may increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as heart attacks and strokes
Advanced Thyroid Panel:
• TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone): Measures the level of TSH in the blood, which indicates how well the thyroid is functioning.
• Free T4 (Thyroxine): Measures the amount of free T4 in the blood, which is one of the main hormones produced by the thyroid gland.
• Free T3 (Triiodothyronine): Measures the amount of free T3 in the blood, another key thyroid hormone.
• Thyroid Antibodies (TPO and TgAb): Detects the presence of antibodies that may indicate autoimmune thyroid conditions like Hashimoto’s disease or Graves’ disease.
• Reverse T3 (rT3): Measures the level of reverse T3, which can provide additional insights into thyroid function and metabolism.
Hormone panel:
• Estrogen: Important for reproductive and overall health in women.
• Progesterone: Another key hormone for reproductive health.
• Testosterone: Important for both men and women, affecting muscle mass, bone density, and mood.
• Cortisol: Known as the stress hormone, it helps regulate metabolism and immune response.
• Thyroid hormones (T3 and T4): Essential for regulating metabolism.
• Luteinizing Hormone (LH) and Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH): Involved in reproductive processes.
Many More:
• ApoE4 status
• Hemoglobin A1c, fasting insulin
• Complete Metabolic Panel: Albumin, A/G Ratio, ALT, AST, BUN/Creatinine Ratio, Calcium, Carbon Dioxide, Chloride, Creatinine with GFR Estimated, Globulin, Glucose, Potassium, Urea Nitrogen
• Hs-CRP (high sensitivity C-reactive protein)
• Vitamin D
• Vitamin B12, folate, Vitamin E (Vitamin A, E, b-carotenold Panel)
• Heavy Metals Panel: (Hg, Pb, As)
• Serum Zinc
• Serum Copper (Total)
• RBC Mg
• MMP9
