Work With Us

Your first appointment will be 90 minutes and can take place in person or through our virtual office. Your insurance company may reimburse appointments.  Review our insurance and payment policies here.

What to expect at your first appointment

Your dietitian will complete a functional nutrition assessment by reviewing your paperwork with you. Using this assessment, your dietitian will start putting all your unique pieces together to identify potential imbalances and determine the right program for you. Topics discussed during your assessment will include:

• Medical history
• Diet and eating habits
• Medications and supplements
• Exercise patterns
• Sleep adequacy
• Stress management
• Social and emotional wellness

By the end of your first appointment, you’ll have

• Personalized recipe and meal ideas
• Guidance on which of our programs is right for you
• Support and encouragement to make healthy changes a part of your lifestyle
• We may also request testing or lab work from your doctor and have suggestions for supplements.

3. Choose your program

As integrative and functional dietitians, we use The Institute of Functional Medicine’s 5R framework to address digestive issues and optimize overall health.  Our programs have been developed based on the 5R protocol combined with years of experience working with clients. We love getting answers to digestive problems quickly so you can feel better faster.

1. Remove –  stressors or triggers negatively impacting the gut, such as SIBO, parasites, yeast, and food intolerances.
2. Replace –  anything required for optimal digestion, such as Betaine HCl, pancreatic enzymes, and bile salts.
3. Reinoculate – with probiotic and prebiotic food and supplements to create a more robust microbiome.
4. Repair –  the lining of the GI tract through specific nutrients and anti-inflammatory support.
5. Rebalance –  by modifying lifestyle choices that impact the gut, such as sleep, stress, movement, and environment.
