Most people come to us with a full stack of labs already done.
Most of the time, everything is “normal” or just a few regular abnormalities like high cholesterol, HgA1c, etc.
And when I say we’re going to run more testing, they’re not confused, they’re relieved.
Relieved that someone finally believes their symptoms.
Relieved that someone is willing to dig deeper instead of brushing them off.
Relieved that they don’t have to keep convincing anyone that something is actually wrong.
Here’s the truth:
In conventional medicine we as doctors are trained very conservatively:
👉 “Don’t order tests you won’t know what to do with.”
So most doctors only check the foundations, they are following their training!
This is why functional ranges, patterns, or root-cause connections might not be visible on those basic labs.
But symptoms don’t care about that.
Your life doesn’t care about that.
Your suffering doesn’t care about that.
And this past month alone, by going deeper, we discovered:
✔️ Adrenal dysfunction
✔️ Hidden infectious triggers
✔️ Thyroid issues
✔️ Low iron storage
✔️ Hormone imbalance
All completely missed on the initial labs.
This is why I always say:
"Let me put on my integrative detective hat"
I dig.
I zoom out and zoom in.
I question, I connect the dots, I double-check, and I don’t stop until we find the “why.”
Because nothing is more validating and empowering than finally hearing:
“Here’s the reason you haven’t felt like yourself… and here’s the path forward.”
You’re not crazy.
You’re not imagining it.
You know your body better than anyone else. You can trust your intuition.
And you absolutely deserve answers.
