Diagnostic Tests
In functional medicine, diagnostic tests allow us to better understand how the body operates. Because comprehensive testing is such an important component of how we operate, we have partnered with Wellness Way to utilize the most advanced laboratories across the country.
Why are Complete Diagnostic Tests Important?
Many people have had their hormones tested but few have had complete hormone testing unless they have been to a Wellness Way Affiliate Clinic. A complete diagnostic test through Wellness Way can give us the whole picture and guide our next steps. However, not all testing is created equal, and we ensure that your test results will allow for the best clinical diagnosis and care plan. Complete diagnostic testing is important to ensure you are on the right track for getting back to your best as fast as possible.
Clinical Diagnosis and The Swiss Watch Principle
A proper clinical diagnosis can’t be made solely on symptoms. Sometimes your symptoms are wrong. That’s what makes The Wellness Way Approach so different. We understand that the body is like a Swiss watch. Like the gears of the watch, all of the body’s systems are connected. If the smallest gear stops working or goes slower, it impacts the whole watch. The body is just like that, so laboratory tests help us find which system is impacting the body.
If everything is connected, how do you choose from a long list of laboratory tests? That is why your preliminary appointment is so important. Dr. Tiffani Fries will perform an initial assessment and help you with next steps.
