At COREhealth we provide our patients with uniquely individualized
care. In order to do this we carefully analyze many details of each patient’s
history, exam, and tests. As you can imagine, this takes time. Our
fees are based on the time we spend with
you in the office, speaking with you on the telephone, and studying your
case after office hours. This is a strikingly different and more effective
model for patient care than the conventional health care system which is
burdened with routine protocols and legal structures which generate high
overhead costs passed on to the patients through higher insurance premiums
and co-pays. For example, the average cost of a 5-minute visit to a medical
doctor in October, 2003 was $79. A 20-minute insurance-coded visit averaged
$219. Of course, this is apart from the costs of medical procedures, drugs,
and hospitalizations which we, at COREhealth, strive to prevent. We want our patients to be
drug-free and permanently healthier after our treatment. Our motto is,
Add more years to your life and more life to your years.
We focus on all of you when we visit with you and when we study your case after
hours. You can participate in your care, saving us time and you money, by
thinking carefully about your health and your progress before you consult with
us. Think about everything that you want cured and how your symptoms have
changed. Keep a few notes, organize your lab reports chronologically and by
category, write brief summaries, or make symptom logs or charts. Any information
you provide which is concise and organized will save time at your visit and
allow us to analyze your case more quickly.
In particular we need to know:
-
the main reasons for your office visit
or telephone call. Please do not send e-mail.
-
how your energy level changed since
your last visit.
-
how your state of mind changed since
your last visit.
-
what you think the last treatment did
for you.
-
what is better; what is worse; what is
unchanged; what new symptoms occurred.
-
about any new medication or
nutritional supplement you are
taking.
-
about any new tests or treatments you
received from other practitioners.
Our
goal for our patients is optimal health through good nutrition and the use of
science-based medical therapy. We want our patients to be happy and healthy,
free of illness and free of the need for doctors or treatment.
