What to Expect for your First Consultation
The initial consultation is 75-90 minutes, during
which time we will:
1. Welcome you warmly
2. Do your: vitals (blood pressure, heart rate,
respirations, body temperature), % oxygen
saturation,
saliva pH and body weight
3. Do a B.I.A, (% body fat, etc if requested),
Biomeridian assessment (if scheduled in advance),
Thyroflex (if scheduled in advance)
4. Give you a "patient binder" where you can keep
your treatment plans and recommendations all
together.
5. Take the time to explain how to perform all of
the recommended lab test.
6. Create an easy to follow "supplement daily
schedule" and answer any questions you have about
your recommended nutritionals.
Dr. Godby will:
1. Learn your health goals
2. Ask about your life story and symptoms
3. Take a thorough health and lifestyle history
4. Review your current nutritional supplements and
pharmaceutical medications (if any),
5. Do a brief exam,
6. Review your completed intake forms and suggest
the appropriate lab tests,
7. Develop a treatment plan
8. Be available via email to answer any of your
questions.
To assist in making an accurate diagnosis of your
condition(s), we may choose from an array of
hundreds of laboratory tests, ranging from
conventional blood and urine tests, to more
progressive, functionally-oriented salivary hormone,
adrenal and neurotransmitter testing, food
allergy/sensitivity, genetic, digestive stool and
many others.
What To Expect For your Second Consultation:
During the second visit, usually about 50 minutes, I
will present a "Report of Findings," and details the
the lifestyle (i.e. stress reduction, exercise and
others) and dietary changes needed, along with the
appropriate nutritional and herbal supplements, and
other follow-up laboratory tests, as needed.
Working with Your Other Doctors
I regularly refer to specialists and would be happy
to work with your primary care doctor. I
believe that quality patient-centered care requires
open-ended communication and would be happy to
initiate a conversation with your other doctors to
determine the best course of action.
