How We Work with You

Here at ARA Integrative and Functional Medicine

  1. We view us all as being genetically and biochemically unique. Using this approach, we personalize health care to treat the individual, not the disease. With the use of extensive history taking, advanced lab testing and a nutritional physical exams we are able to implement precise treatment protocols to support the normal and healing mechanisms of the body naturally.
  2. We are rooted in evidence-based medicine using a systems-based biology approach to identify the root cause of complex chronic conditions.
  3. We recognize that your body is intelligent and has the capacity for self-regulation, which expresses itself through a dynamic balance of each of your body systems.
  4. We believe that health is not just the absence of disease, but a state of immense vitality.

 

What to Expect

Initial Comprehensive Evaluation

You will meet with Dr. Kapoor on your first visit for 60 minutes for a comprehensive assessment as we begin your journey to better health.  This will not be the traditional 10- 15-minute visit at a conventional doctor’s office. Any labs you have submitted and questionnaire’s you have responded to will be reviewed in depth prior to your encounter with  Dr. Kapoor. She will then take a take a “deeper dive” during your time together with a detailed review of your history. Expect to spend about 60 minutes for your visit. At the end of the visit, Dr. Kapoor with provide you with a diagnostic plan to start that may include :

  • Customized Nutritional Plan
