The case review process is available by video conferencing.

Step One: Your Initial Consultation

We’ll look at the many factors influencing your health. The lab tests we order depend on your individual circumstances, and may include:

Bloodwork: provides an overview & helps us narrow in on problem areas like blood sugar, thyroid, nutrient deficiencies & inflammation to name a few.
Advanced stool testing screens for parasites, fungal overgrowth, intestinal inflammation, dysbiosis, digestive function and deficiency of beneficial bacteria. Specific markers for liver, gluten sensitivity and breakdown of protein.
Organic acids tests check neurotransmitters, enzymes, and nutrients. Screens for toxic exposure, bacterial infections & fungal overgrowth. Can be supportive for ruling out oxalate and other sensitivities.
Comprehensive hormone testing for HPA-axis/adrenal function and sex hormones including hormone metabolism.

You will be provided with a health history questionnaires to complete. This is an opportunity to reflect on your goals, history and it makes our time together much more effective. These may include:

A detailed health and medical history questionnaire
An assessment of your chief complaints and symptoms
A lifestyle and diet survey
An opportunity to consider your health and wellness goals

Step Two: Treatment Plan

Prior to your 2nd consult, any new labs will be reviewed and used to create a treatment plan. This will include:

A discussion of the underlying patterns that are contributing to your symptoms.
An outline of the suggested treatment plan, including dietary, supplement and lifestyle recommendations.
Recommendations for further testing if necessary.

Step Three: Support & Following Up

Implementing your treatment plan takes having the right support. When I look back at why some patients are successful and others struggle it comes down to support. Getting your health back requires implementing your plan and surrounding yourself with the right support.

Once the Case Review is complete, please book in follow-up appointments as needed. You can talk with Amber to decide what makes sense for you. The frequency of will depend upon your condition and how you respond to treatment.

Case Review Fees

The Case Review is the fastest and most efficient way to determine the underlying causes of your health problems and design an effective treatment plan. While a Case Review may cost more up front, it is designed to save you money and time over the long-term by doing a deep dive at the beginning. Many people spend a lot of time and money spinning their wheels but never solving their health issues. Health problems can interfere with having a fulfilling personal & work life.

Here is a breakdown of the costs involved in the Case Review:

The Case Review: This includes your initial & case review consultation plus two follow-ups. You determine the pace. Typically it takes 3-6 months.

Functional Lab Work: Functional labs for the case review are $150 – $500 each.

Supplements: These may be part of your treatment plan and used for therapeutic purposes but are not intended to be long-term. Approximate cost $150-200.

Total of Case Review Fees: The Case Review process is approximately $1500.

A Functional Medical Approach Is...

Investigative: Addresses the underlying or root cause of your health problems which leads to optimal healing and long lasting results.
Holistic: Understands the systems of the body are interconnected along with our environment. Sees the importance of theses connections.
Safe: Treatments have mild or no side effects, and other “untreated” complaints often improve.
Patient-centered: Treats the patient, not the disease. Treatments are highly individualized based on the patient’s needs.
Participatory: Patients are educated, empowered, and encouraged to take an active role in their healing process.
Integrative: Multiple treatment approaches are applied. Diet and lifestyle are emphasized.
Restorative: Designed to zero in on underlying causes, optimize function. Prevent and reverse disease. Improve the quality of your life.
Preventative: Treatments always entail that you engage in lifestyle and dietary changes that will help prevent chronic illness.
Evidence-based: Based on the latest research from peer-reviewed medical journals, and uncorrupted by corporate and political interests.s

Trauma can be resolved in the body. Our bodies are wise & know when it's time.

"I know Amber to be a very caring practitioner. She takes the time to really listen, to get the facts and to dive below the surface. She puts the puzzle pieces together to discover root issues, sometimes with targeted testing to further refine the protocols she suggests. Her approach is of long term correction of imbalances rather than just symptom management.

With her gentle yet direct manner, she makes clients feel comfortable in sharing their personal and often challenging health concerns. Amber is always approachable and open as questions arise along the healing journey."

Insomnia is often caused by blood sugar dysregulation.

"It has not even been two weeks since I saw you...I sleep so much better already! This is working and I feel fantastic. Thank you Amber."

85% of thyroid issues are caused by autoimmunity. This is often overlooked.

The Functional Medicine that Amber Wood guided me through has had a profoundly beneficial effect on both my physical and emotional well-being. When I first started working with Amber I was experiencing challenging life transitions resulting in my adrenals and digestion in a state of trauma. These things combined left me exhausted, anxious, and uncomfortable to say the least. We worked closely over the past few years to treat, heal and resolve these issues. Through Amber’s knowledge of Functional Medicine we eliminated what ended up being a bacterial infection of the gut lining called H.pylori. Her guidance on all aspects of this process has completely changed my life. I consider her to be a gifted clinician. I am eternally grateful to her.
