Frequently Asked Questions About Metabolic Health & Wellness and Functional Medicine
Will you be my PCP?
Metabolic Health & Wellness does not offer basic primary care services. We do not provide acute or emergency care. We suggest you maintain a relationship with a primary care provider, and we are happy to communicate with them at your request.
Why don’t you accept insurance?
When insurance companies are involved, they come between you and us. Their provider requirements create cumbersome paper work, phone calls, authorizations, complex billing and coding issues, and a demand for higher volume. This takes away from time spent with you, and often leads to provider burn-out, and unsatisfied patients. In a direct-pay model, your care will not be rushed or protocol driven. This allows for a higher quality, individualized treatment plan.
Is membership a requirement?
No. A functional medicine approach takes time and commitment from both us and you. We feel a membership fosters this commitment and promotes an environment of hope, support, and healing. Our memberships are a great way to save on office visits while receiving additional perks. However, membership is optional.
Do you see children?
We feel everyone can benefit from a functional medicine approach to health. Please contact us to discuss your child’s situation to determine if we are a good fit.
