A first appointment lasts 60 to 90 minutes, much longer than a typical conventional doctor visit. The ND will take a detailed health history covering current symptoms, diet, sleep, stress, digestion, previous lab work, and medications or supplements. They may order standard lab tests (blood work, thyroid panel, nutrient levels) and may also use specialized tests. Treatment plans typically include dietary changes, targeted supplements, botanical medicines, and lifestyle modifications. Follow-up visits are 30 to 45 minutes, usually every two to four weeks initially.
