Hello,
Sorry, but we don’t accept any insurance—but we will provide a “superbill” that you can give to your insurance company to obtain reimbursement. I work for my patients, not the insurance companies.
However, we do provide a very comprehensive blood test that IS covered by your insurance, if you choose to take it.
I may be able to make some recommendations for nutritional supplements to reduce your requirement for some of the medications you are taking, although there are a few medications that are actually beneficial (such as Metformin, and Lisinopril).
If you decide to make an appointment, please bring your medications, dietary supplements, and any relevant recent lab tests you may have.
