Yes, Dr. Angela is able to order blood work for you, similar to any medical professional. 

She will review any records you provide which help guide her personalized  recommendations that are specific to your unique circumstances.

Dr. Angela is very thorough, unlike conventional doctors that don’t go deep enough with their lab evaluation. She uses optimal reference ranges when appropriate, rather than conventional ranges which are designed to diagnose disease not to be healthy. This helps determine underlying causes BEFORE a disease state develops. 

Much of the bloodwork that Dr. Angela recommends may not be viewed as “medically necessary” by your insurance company. It is for this reason that she has negotiated very low cash prices for some labs, so that you avoid very large bills several months later. She also advocates using your insurance when appropriate and coverage will depend on your insurance company’s contract with the lab. Dr. Angela strives to provide you with the most cost effective strategy.

For those with insurance, most standard blood work will be billed directly to your insurance by the lab.

You will have your blood drawn at your in-network lab if you have insurance or at Quest if you don’t have insurance.

You may also have the option to have your blood drawn in the comfort of your home or office with a mobile phlebotomist who will come to you for an additional charge. 

You may also have lab work done through your PCP, although it is likely not necessary.

If you have Medicare or Medicaid, Dr. Angela is NOT able to order any blood work. You will need to bring her recommendations to your provider or choose to pay out of pocket.

Dr. Angela most commonly recommends deeper Functional Medicine specialty labs to identify the underlying root causes and obstacles to you getting better.

The specific tests ordered will be personalized to you based on your initial evaluation with Dr. Angela and may include blood saliva urine or stool testing.

Some are done at home with a kit and clear instructions she provides you. Others are done using a mobile phlebotomist that can meet you at your home or office. 

On average, we recommend you budget between $500-$1000 for functional lab tests. 

We will make every effort to make you fully aware of any additional lab fees that may be incurred and to give you the opportunity to choose which lab tests you feel comfortable paying for.

You are under no obligation to purchase any specialty testing. 

Functional lab testing has extremely limited covered if any by insurance. Dr. Angela will discuss with you each test individually so that you can make the best payment decision. 

Labs and supplements are not included and are an additional investment to any consultation, program, or membership fees. 

We provide low cost cash prices for comprehensive blood work and pass our wholesale discounts to you. 

Supplements are provided with a VIP discount through our online retailers.
