Specialty Lab Testing
As a naturopathic doctor in Atlanta, I believe in thorough lab tests to find the root cause of your issue. This is particularly true with hormonal imbalances (gastro Intestinal issues, hypertension, blood sugar dysregulation, diabetes, hair loss, acne, fatigue, libido, weight gain).
What lab tests can a naturopathic doctor in Atlanta do?
As a naturopathic health practitioner, I can order almost any blood test that you may be interested in having. I can order conventional lab tests like thyroid, iron, and detailed hormone analysis. Also, I have access to specialized testing for just about anything else that you may be wondering about. I can order in-depth stool analysis for irritable bowel, Crohn’s, colitis or SIBO, blood testing for food sensitivities, heavy metal testing, 24-hour urine hormone analysis, vitamin and mineral analysis, and many others.
Is lab testing mandatory?
Absolutely not! As with any of my recommendations, I will discuss all the testing and non-testing options. We’ll discuss the pros and cons so that you can make an informed choice about the best course of action for you. While tests can provide specifics about where exactly the problem lies, there are always alternatives to testing.
