What to Expect at Your Appointment
Please bring our intake forms (PDF) and all your current medications and/or supplements to your first visit.
Your first appointment will usually last 60 minutes. Once you arrive at the clinic and check in, you will be met by an Integrative Medicine medical assistant who will do an initial intake and measure vital signs. The integrative physician will review your medical information, listen to your story and perform a directed physical exam.
On your second visit, which is typically 30 to 60 minutes, an individualized optimal health plan will be presented to you addressing the mind, body, spirit and emotion. Your optimal health plan will integrate conventional and alternative therapies that will best serve your health needs and goals.
Recommendations are to be gradually incorporated.
Discussion of the plan with other treating physicians and practitioners is encouraged.
Recommendations may include referral to practitioners in the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor or other communities.
When instituting lifestyle changes, research shows that regular follow-up visits support success. Discuss the best frequency of follow-up visits with your integrative physician. Follow-up visits are generally 30 minutes.
