Requirements
- NO SIGNIFICANT COGNITIVE DECLINE.
- Prior to participating in the Functional Medicine Treatment program, all new patients must complete an initial Functional Medicine consultation for ordering clinically indicated labs and diagnostics. Dr. Libert’s goal is to accurately diagnose any underlying root causes of disease and symptoms. Following the initial consultation, a Review of Findings visit is required to share the results of the diagnostic work-up and formulate a treatment plan.
- Participants must be willing and able to make lifestyle changes including dietary changes, physical exercise, stress reduction and sleep optimization.
Special note for those with cognitive decline concerns:
If your initial functional medicine consultation shows evidence for cognitive decline, you will not qualify for the functional medicine treatment program. Instead, you will be offered enrollment in the Cognitive Decline Treatment Program. Please understand that the follow-up care for cognitive decline treatment is more intensive, and we want you to get the support that your need. Dr. Libert is only able to accept a few new patients per month into the cognitive decline treatment program, and we require a year commitment up front for participation.
What’s the Investment?
6 month Functional Medicine Treatment Program – $525/month x 6 month commitment
A 10% discount is available for payment in full at the time of program enrollment.
Please note that the program fee does not include any labs and imaging studies, but these may be covered by your health insurance.
After the program – If additional care is desired beyond the initial 6 month program, you can enroll in the Functional Medicine Maintenance Plan to access on-going care from Dr. Libert and her team.
How can I enroll?
This program is by invitation only and is offered to patients who show no evidence for significant cognitive decline after completion of the Initial Functional Medicine Consultation and Review of Findings Visit. The first step is to call our patient care coordinator, Jan Vidmar at 828.490.1545 or e-mail her at help@caringforthebody.org to schedule your free 15-minute strategy session to find out if we’re a good fit to work together.
