FAQs
What is functional medicine?
Functional medicine is patient-centered healthcare. By taking a holistic approach to your healthcare, we are able to run comprehensive tests to help you discover where the imbalances in your body exist and to discover the “why” to your ailments.
Why doesn’t my current doctor run the same lab tests that you do?
Many doctors lack the experience, training, and time to run and interpret functional medicine lab tests. Our wide array of labs can help pinpoint specific problem areas and help guide us in treating you correctly, rather than masking the problem with medications. These tests also demonstrate how your body systems work and interact with one another and where any disconnect may lie within them.
How is functional medicine different from conventional medicine?
Conventional medicine typically evaluates the disease and treats the symptoms. Functional medicine, on the other hand, focuses on finding and fixing the root cause of chronic health ailments, including type-2 diabetes, autoimmune diseases, chronic fatigue, leaky gut syndrome, adrenal burnout, hormonal imbalances, and more. This allows you to improve your health in a natural, holistic way.
Who can benefit from this virtual consultation?
We at The Wellness Connection are thrilled to serve patients of all ages! Whether you’re an athlete looking to improve your gains, someone considering pregnancy, a person who has been suffering from a chronic illness, or simply just want to improve your quality of life, we are here to help you along the way!
Do I need a referral to be seen?
No, you don’t need a referral.
What should I do before my virtual consultation?
If applicable, be sure to gather all pertinent health information and any recent lab work you might have had done previously. It might even behoove you to write out your symptoms and concerns to give us a better idea of what you’re hoping to achieve.
What can I expect during my first virtual consultation?
During your appointment, we will discuss your primary health concerns and goals. If after your appointment we believe we can truly help you and you are ready for help, we will advise you on the next step of the process.
Expect this virtual appointment to last roughly 30 minutes.
How will my appointment be confirmed?
Once you select your preferred time and date, you will receive a confirmation call. We also use text and email reminders for further instructions and to help you access your virtual consultation links.
Will I be penalized for canceling my appointment?
There is no penalty for canceling an appointment as long as it is canceled at least 24 hours in advance. If that 24-hour window is not met, you will lose the $50 deposit you had to hold your appointment.
If the call drops, can I enter back into the appointment?
Yes, you will be able to rejoin and reconnect. If there is a major delay for some reason that would require a reschedule, we can accommodate that.
Do you accept insurance?
Some services are covered in our facility. Medical insurance doesn’t pay for care that is based on supplements, dietary changes, and specific labs that they consider not medically necessary. Because insurance is not involved in the majority of nutrition cases, it allows us to treat patients naturally and in the manner in which we have found to be most effective. It also allows us to order exactly what is needed to help you get well.
However, we have found that most insurance policies cover aspects of chiropractic care, x-rays, and therapy. We will check on your insurance coverage as a courtesy to you in most cases.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes, we offer payment plans in-house and payment plans through CareCredit and other healthcare finance companies. Many of these companies offer up to 18 months at 0% interest. You can apply online for CareCredit, or we can help you if needed.
