ABOUT YOUR VISIT
What to Expect
What to expect from your first visit
At GraceMed Functional Medicine & Hormonal Health, we take a comprehensive approach to your well-being. Your medical history will be thoroughly reviewed by our Institute For Hormonal Health certified practitioner, who is trained in our team's holistic methods. Based on these findings, we will arrange appropriate investigations to provide a complete picture of your health.
During your visit, you will also have the opportunity to meet with your Patient Care Coordinator. They will ensure that you have a clear understanding of how to proceed with your investigations and assist in coordinating communication with the Institute for Hormonal Health.
Your appointment at the Institute typically lasts a little over an hour, allowing us to dedicate the necessary time to understand your unique needs and design a personalized path to hormonal well-being.
What to expect from your second visit
At this second visit, your certified practitioner will review your test results in detail so that you have an understanding of your particular hormonal imbalances. An individualized treatment plan will be formulated and tailored to your specific needs to include involvement of members of our integrative health team that will be of benefit to you. Each member of the team is a hormone specialist within their field and each addresses various aspects of a hormonal imbalance (see team member bios under “Your Team”). You will meet with your Patient Care Coordinator who will help you summarize and implement your treatment program. In addition, you will receive your investigation results, as well as scientific papers (for both you and your family doctor) supporting the treatment plan for your hormonal issue.
What to expect from your third and fourth visits
In the first year of treatment, depending on your treatment plan, a follow-up appointment is typical every three or four months to review your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan. Of course, should you need to see any of your practitioners sooner, then simply email or call the Institute and we will be happy to make these arrangements.
Between appointments you will have direct access to your Patient Care Coordinator via email or phone to help resolve any questions you may have, and to determine the need for additional visits.
It is expected that you will continue to see your family doctor and/or specialist(s) for non-hormonal issues. To request an appointment, please contact us.
We accept Visa, MasterCard, Interac and Cash. Financing options are available.
