What Our Clients Say
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of environmental exposures are evaluated?
Depending on your history, we may evaluate mold, heavy metals, environmental toxins,
chemicals, and other exposures.
What kind of testing is involved?
Testing is individualized and may include laboratory assessments and specialized testing when clinically appropriate.
How is this different from standard medical testing?
We explore environmental contributors that may not be evaluated during routine medical care. Some tests may need to be ordered and mailed out to specialty labs.
Can this help if my symptoms are unexplained?
Yes. Identifying environmental factors may provide answers for patients with persistent,
unexplained symptoms.
How long does it take to see improvement?
Improvement varies depending on the exposure and treatment plan, but often occurs
gradually over weeks to months.
