Belgrey Wellness Center

Congratulations on your decision of taking the first step to better health!

Here is an easy guide to what you can expect at your first appointment.

Step 1:  Please bring your completed forms to the office.  The forms are found on the New Clients page.  These forms will give us important information about you and your condition. The doctor will then spend some time asking specific questions about your condition and past history to determine if clinical nutrition is right for you.

Step 2:  After discussing your condition and past history, the doctor will give you a thorough nutritional examination.  Your blood pressure may be taken.  Other tests such as saliva pH and urine pH may be required.  This important information will allow the doctor to have a better understanding of your condition and how we can help you. 

Step 3:  After all the information (including exams, forms, and testing) is complete. The doctor will give you a Report of Findings with nutritional recommendations.  Then you are encouraged to ask questions to determine what lifestyle changes you will need to make.

Step 4: Our office does not participate in  insurance programs or medicare.  This allows us to remain flexible in the modes of treatment we offer our clients, the frequency of treatment, and our fee scale.

If you have any questions at all about our fees and services, please do not hesitate to call and ask for further clarification.  (We will not yell at you, honest).

Please Read - Important Stuff Here, too.

At this time, all our New Patient appointments must be prepaid.  Please call the office to schedule your appointment then use the link provided below to pay for your appointment.  Yes, I know this is a hassle but we have had an epidemic of no-shows and we cannot provide a high level of service if people refuse to honor their scheduled appointment commitments.
