3. Lab Testing: (And Ranting)
I’m obsessed with the lab testing options from Function Health. They do over 100+ lab tests in 1 order for a full health snapshot with easy-to-understand results, a clinician’s summary, and even hormone testing is included.
Why not just do this at your doctor’s office, you might ask?
To be blunt, no doctor I’ve ever gone to would ever do all of this, mostly because of insurance B.S. I have what would be considered the best insurance you can get through my husband’s work, and the last time I had a physical, my doctor ordered about 10 tests and spent 15 minutes with me. It’s not the doctor’s fault. It’s a broken system. Also, I’ve done similar testing at a naturopath and spent over $2k (which I’m still a bit in shock about), and it still wasn’t as comprehensive as this. I can’t more highly recommend doing this with Function Health.
I’ve honestly been blown away by how good this experience has been. If you’re ready for a full-picture view of your health, I highly recommend it.
