Comprehensive Nutritional Testing
$597 & Insurance

The medical diagnostic laboratory the we use performs over 2,000 different clinical tests for medical and nutritional evaluation. Many of these tests hold the key to our future because we now possess the technology to prevent most disease.
Up to now, most of our technology has been used to save lives by way of medical intervention, often in the 11th hour. Unfortunately little of our medical technology is employed to enhancing life or to prevent disease.
The technology is available to delay and even prevent most degenerative disease. The secret lies in some of the same diagnostic tests used to save lives.
Because of the cost involved, most medical doctors seldom consider these tests until a patient’s disease has been considerably advanced. Sophisticated medical technology is costly. Medical testing is no exception. The question is, should we be compelled to wait until our life is threatened to use it?
In naturopathic medicine we believe in prevention. Just because we use simple natural remedies does not mean we want to wait till death knocks on the door to use diagnostic technology.
We believe the most efficacious way to use available laboratory technology is before a named disease sets in. In short: Prevent disease.
The exact lab tests that would be indicated will vary greatly with each individual, as would their sequence. Some test would be best to preform a week or a month after a patient is placed on a nutritional program,, while some may need to go through a series of tests over a period of months to best serve their preventive health needs.
Some of the available nutritional evaluation tests include: Darkfield microscopy, hair tissue analysis for heavy metal toxicity, detailed stool analysis, amino acid profile, fatty acid profile, enzyme profile, human growth hormone anti aging profile, hormone replacement profile, toxic metal blood profile, individual micronutrient blood profile, cancer detection profile, arthritis profile and hundreds of other possibilities.
The information that these tests can give us in advance of illness is invaluable. We believe that the time to fight disease is in its very earliest stages. We believe that it is the early deficiency stage long before disease is even suspected.
Life saving, disease preventing and as valuable as these tests are, most people are unwilling to invest two to five thousand dollars in diagnostic testing, interpretation and evaluation while they are still healthy. usually they wait until serious disease has set in, often when it’s too late.
Most doctors are not trained in the interpretation of these tests for nutritional and preventive purposes, so it would be unusual for them to order such tests until their patient is very sick.
We believe that these tests can head off and even prevent most modern day disease, as well as add quality to your life. We believe the best time to perform these tests is while you have no serious illness.
We successfully negotiated an agreement with a medical diagnostic laboratory that does these highly sophisticated nutritional tests. They have agreed to accept our patient’s insurance as full payment.
You must have private insurance that allows you to go to the medical doctor of your choice. Not an HMO insurance that compels you to go to their company’s in house network group doctor. Your deductible must be met. Even medicare will pay for most of the lab tests.
Your out of pocket fee of $597 remains the same - you pay no more. The medical diagnostic laboratory will bill your insurance company for the special tests. They have agreed to accept what they receive from your insurance as full payment.
Even though additional interpretation work is required with the comprehensive nutritional testing, we have decided not to increase our fees for now.
Your insurance company will reimburse you directly for our office visits and interpretation of laboratory data and they will reimburse the laboratory for their procedures.
We believe the most sensible and cost effective use of your resources, including your health insurance, is to prevent degenerative disease. If you agree and have private insurance the comprehensive nutritional testing is a wise choice.
