What to Expect:

Initial Visit:

This 60min appointment takes a deep dive into your health history and explores your current goals and symptoms. Having a detailed intake form filled out in advance will help make this appointment as efficient as possible.

Next Steps:

This varies! It could mean more blood work to help guide treatment, diving into some acupuncture treatments, starting with dietary changes, getting stress support, etc. The starting place depends on patient preference and what Michelle feels is most indicated.

2

What to Bring:

If you have updated blood work, please bring to your visit or email ahead of time - contact@drmichellemckeend.com Optional: bring 7 days of dietary tracking to provide a sample baseline diet.

Phases of Treatment:

Individual treatment plans will be discussed on the second visit. Michelle breaks down the treatment plan into phases and schedules follow-up appointments accordingly. For example, if dysbiosis (altered gut microbiome) is suspected, Michelle does not focus on nutrient status until dysbiosis has been corrected, to ensure that absorption is optimal.

Testing

Running additional blood tests and/or functional tests can help us determine underlying causes to your symptoms. It provides more information on things like: nutrient status, blood sugar balance, blood fat levels, etc. to allow the treatment plan to be more targeted and specific.

Nutritional Support

What we eat and when we eat can have a profound influence on our energy levels, sleep quality, hormones and gut health. I help patients learn how to select certain meals to ensure their nutritional needs are supported without spending hours in the kitchen.
