listened to all of

it took notes on all of it and then gave me feedback immediately so you go ahead so for naturopathic doctors in general i would say the first appointment generally ranges anywhere from 45 minutes anywhere to two and a half three hours for some of my colleagues for us we found that two hours sometimes two hours and 15 minutes because i do a little bit of body work on my patients during that first visit it's more than enough time and also you Yeah, it doesn't feel like way too long, but it is really comprehensive.

It's a great opportunity to tell your entire health story.

We dive into all of the details.

So if someone has what we would call a chief complaint or a main concern that they want to work on, I want to hear the entire story.

Especially when I'm working with women on hormones, I want to hear what your first period was like, what they were like as a teenager before they maybe normalized a little bit, what birth control history looks like.

If you've ever had kids, I want to hear about what your pregnancies were like, what labor delivery postpartum was like.

Would you mind explaining what should a typical patient expect financially for the initial visit, labs, and follow-up appointments?
