Book a Consultation

Your first step toward feeling like yourself again

You don’t need to have everything figured out before you reach out.

You don’t need all the answers, a stack of labs, or a clear understanding of what’s going on. That’s what the consultation is designed to help uncover.

  • Come with your history.
  • Come with your questions.
  • Come with whatever has been sitting unresolved.

We’ll take it from there.

Most clients start with a consultation and continue with personalized care based on their goals and lab findings.

What happens in a consultation

Effex Favicon

Your initial consultation is a comprehensive health intake — not a 15-minute appointment, and not a screening call.

We’ll review:

  • Your full health history
  • Current symptoms
  • Medications and supplements
  • Diet and lifestyle
  • Your goals — where you want to go, not just what’s happening now

From there, we identify patterns, potential contributing factors, and areas that may benefit from further evaluation.

We’ll also determine whether advanced lab testing would be helpful, and which options are most appropriate for your situation.

You’ll leave with:

  • A clear understanding of your current health picture
  • Insight into what we’re looking for and why
  • Defined next steps — which may include lab testing, nutrition strategies, and lifestyle recommendations

This is a collaborative process. The more context you bring, the more precise we can be.

The practical details

Format

All consultations are via telehealth. EffEx is a virtual practice — no commute, no waiting room, scheduling that works with your life.

Scheduling

Appointments are managed through Practice Better. You’ll complete intake forms in advance so we can make the most of your session.

Fees & Insurance

EffEx operates as a hybrid practice, offering both self-pay and insurance-based options when available.

Insurance: Select plans may be eligible for coverage depending on your benefits

Self-pay: Available for all services and used when insurance is not applicable

If you’d like to use insurance:

  • Submit your information through the personal information form that is sent after requesting an appointment
  • We will check your benefits on your behalf
  • If your plan includes coverage, we’ll guide you through next steps

If your plan has limited coverage or does not apply to your care, we seamlessly transition to self-pay options.

Please note: Advanced lab testing is not covered by insurance and is an out-of-pocket investment.

We’ll always review costs and options with you before moving forward.

This approach allows us to prioritize the best strategy for your care — not just what insurance dictates.

Still on the fence?

A lot of people who find EffEx have spent years looking for answers.

They’ve been told their labs are fine.

They’ve been dismissed.

Or they’ve never worked with someone willing to look closely enough.

If that’s been your experience, you’re not alone.

If you’d prefer to start with a lower-commitment first step, you can begin with a 15-minute Strategy Call.

This is a focused conversation to:

  • Discuss your goals and current concerns
  • Determine whether EffEx is the right fit for you
  • Clarify next steps
