Thinking about hiring a functional medicine doctor? Before you book that first appointment, you need to be prepared. Functional medicine is a whole different game—it’s an investment of time, energy, and money. If you go in expecting a quick fix, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment. Functional medicine doctors don’t have a magic wand to undergo a terrible lifestyle. That work is on you. This episode is your functional medicine prep kit—everything you need to know and do before you commit to the process. Because any functional medicine doctor worth their salt does NOT take insurance, and the costs go way beyond the consult. Labs, supplements, and treatments like peptides can add up fast, so you need to know what you're signing up for and you need to come in as prepared as possible. More importantly, you need to take ownership of your health. No doctor—functional or otherwise—can do the work for you. If you’re not ready to lift weights, fix your metabolic health, and make real lifestyle changes, functional medicine won’t save you. Before you invest your time and money, tune in and get equipped with the right tools to get the most out of functional medicine.
