Testing
We offer a wide variety of medical, nutritional and biochemical testing. These are state of the art tests from some of the countries premier testing labs.
It is very hard to treat something if you do not know what is wrong. Clinically a good treatment program begins with a good diagnosis. Testing helps take the guesswork out.
In our clinic we routinely run extensive panels of tests at the beginning of a case to determine where the issues are and so we can target specifically. Many times our patients come to us with
shopping bags of supplements they have been taking but which have not produced the desired results. Generally this is for two reasons. First, without an accurate diagnosis they may be taking the
wrong supplements. Secondly, often the quality of supplements do not allow for the situation to be remedied.
We highly recommend testing, whenever possible, to determine actual need.
