The program
Every step from your free phone call to your first follow-up labs, so you know what happens before you commit to anything.
Before you start
20 minutes, by phone
A patient coordinator asks what you've tried, what's changed and what you'd like looked at. No obligation.
One draw, 70+ biomarkers
If you decide to go ahead, we book your blood draw at the Tampa clinic on Henderson Blvd.
In person
You sit down with your provider and your full report, and go over every option, medication included.
Your plan
At scheduled follow-ups
Your provider sees how the plan is going and adjusts it with you.
Follow-up
After your first stretch of care
Your new results are compared with your first ones, so the next part of your plan is built on your own numbers.
Step one is free, and you don't need a referral.
What the plan covers
If prescription weight-loss medication is why you're here, your provider talks it through at your plan visit. Every plan also covers how you eat, how you move and what your next labs show.
The options we prescribe quiet the hunger signals between your gut and your brain and help steady blood sugar. Your provider sets the dose, sees you at every check-in and orders your follow-up labs.
Refills come after a check-in, not a form.
An eating plan your provider builds around your labs, your schedule and what you've already tried.
Activity your provider fits to your health history and the week you actually have.
Your markers are checked again as you go, so changes to the plan come from what your labs show.
