Primary care is the first point of contact for individuals within a healthcare system. It encompasses preventive care, treatment of common illnesses, and coordination of specialized care when needed. Primary care providers, often general practitioners, nurse practitioners, or physician assistants, establish long-term relationships with patients, becoming familiar with their medical history and tailoring care to their individual needs.

As a Functional Medicine doctor I’m interested in collaborating with your PCP as well as any specialist you may be seeing such as cardiologist, endocrinologist, oncologist etc. As a nephrologist, I’m here to support you along with your primary nephrologist in the health and care of your kidneys. Open communication leads to better overall comprehensive care.

At this time I provide telemedicine appointments only for my Functional Medicine patients.

No. Functional medicine  involves longer appointment times and more personalized care, which may not be financially viable under insurance models that prioritize efficiency and high patient volume.  Insurance companies prioritize cost reduction and a traditional medical model, which may not cover the specialized testing, longer appointment times, and holistic treatments often employed in functional medicine.
