Select a 15 minute Discovery Call if you want to take a small opportunity to see if you want to work with a Functional Medicine Practitioner  for your health journey (in-person or telemedicine). NOTE: No meal plans or protocols are provided for Discovery Call.  This is not a consultation.

With our Functional Medicine Practitioner, Christie Brooks, FM, MS, RD

Once you book your Symptoms to Solutions Appointment:

1. Plan for 2 hours with the Functional Medicine Practitioner ($399) (Each additional 10 minutes will increase the session fee)
2. At your first appointment, we will book you for a FREE 30 minute session with our Life & Health Coach, Brittany.   We like this appointment to be 1-2 weeks after seeing Christie at your initial apointment.

Book here or go to Schedule Appointment Tab to book your appointment.

Please note that unfortunately, insurance does not recognize Functional Medicine prevention, intervention, and wellness nor does it cover any of the testing, so it is all considered cash-pay.

Due to increased credit card fees, all payments in office made via credit card will have a 3.3% credit card fee.  You are free to pay with check or cash if you want to avoid the credit card fees.

The Nitty Gritty Details….

Every new patient begins with our complete “Symptoms to Solutions” Consultation.  Again, we DO NOT OFFER PROGRAMS.

Once you book,  within 24-48 hours of our office hours, you will get access to our Practice Better Portal where you set up your own password.

Once you get your password, you will have access to the Intake form (a male or female form), which will need to be COMPLETED IN AS MUCH DETAIL AS POSSIBLE and TURNED IN 7 DAYS BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT to keep your appointment.  This completed detailed form is necessary for the analyzation process that takes place a few days before your appointment.  (Please Note: if we do not receive the form in due time, we will need to reschedule you to a later date).

To Complete your Intake Form:

1. Download the link to your computer.
2. Complete the answers in as much detail as possible.
3. Save it.
4. Upload it back into the Practice Better  Forms & Waivers.
5. Easy.
6. If you have problems or questions, contact Roxie at ChristieBrooksRD.assistant@gmail.com
7. The sooner you turn it in, the quicker you get on the cancellation list!

To Communicate to Staff:

Go the the Chat box icon in the Practice Better Portal for quick messages.  Please be sure to include both Roxie, our Office Assistant, and Christie on the chat.  Roxie or our part-time assistant (whom answers for Christie) will be replying to you.  IF you have a lot of questions or wanting to know if you need to stay on supplements, it is BEST to move your follow-up appointment up to a closer date so that you can talk to Christie in the office directly, as this is something that is covered in EVERY follow up visit.

The practice better chat messaging system can not be lawfully used to treat or diagnose anyone.

When you Arrive to your  Symptoms to Solutions First Appointment:

When you arrive, please check in on the QR code at the reception desk.  This notifies us that you have arrived.  Feel free to take a seat and browse through any educational brochures that interest you. Once we finish with our client before you, we will call you back.

Length of First Appointment:

Typically /first appointments last 1.5-2 hours due to all the education and digging deeper into your health journey.  We will have a typed up analysis from your Intake Form for you to take home and read over. We will cover as much of this as we can during your session; however, often we run out of time and that is okay! We don’t want to keep you over 2 hours because that is a lot of information to retain!  The information we go over needs to be sustainable and doable.  So we will go at a pace you feel most comfortable, yet will still push you with a “healthy push.”  You will leave with a PHASE 1 PROTOCOL that specifically fits YOUR HEALTH journey goals.

Phase 2 protocol might be just a couple months away… but for some it might be 4-6 months away.  We work WITH the body, not against the body. And we go at a pace that is determined by  1) if your body is receptive to the new changes AND 2) how well you stick with the protocol (life happens…we get it!)

Follow Ups:

These look so different from one person to the next.  For some, they need accountability so we have follow ups every 1-2 weeks.  For others it might end up being every 3-4 weeks.  Then eventually, as the body heals, we start stretching it out to 6-8 weeks.  Not everyone has the same roadmap, THIS IS WHY WE DO NOT OFFER PROGRAMS.  The goal is to help you heal and rebalance and get you to the point where we congratulate you at the final follow up.  We are not a one-size-fits-all and no one will be treated that way.

At your follow-ups, we will discuss the changes your body has made, make the adjustments that are needed, go over any supplements you are on and discuss if there is a need to continue them,  move on the the next protocol phase if your body is ready, etc.
