The questionnaires enclosed in this pack are designed to obtain general information about your health history, current symptoms, and diet. If you wish to become a patient of our medical practice, please provide the information requested on the enclosed sheets and return the pack to us. We will then contact you to schedule a medical evaluation. Your medical evaluation is done over the first two office visits. This includes taking your medical history, doing a physical examination, obtaining samples for the recommended laboratory testing, and beginning a nutritional supplement program. Your diet will be analyzed, and a session scheduled to discuss your specific dietary recommendations in detail.

Attention is paid to the lifestyle influences that are important for maximizing good health and treating common chronic health conditions. It is important that you are motivated to make changes in how you eat and that you will allow some time in your life for other health-promoting activities. We hope to provide the education and support necessary to help you in your goal of achieving and maintaining good health!
