The consultation process

I use the latest evidence based research in nutrition and lifestyle medicine with a functional medicine based approach to restore optimal health. My approach will take into account your genetic make up, history, food choices and environment. Together we can achieve and restore optimal health.

I will discuss what package is best suited for you in our initial chat and whether I recommend any functional tests.

Pre Consultation

 

Once your initial consultation appointment is confirmed and any tests needed discussed, you will be sent some forms to be completed and returned at least 48 working hours before your consultation. These will include a health questionnaire, terms of engagement and privacy policy.

"Sam explained (thankfully in layman’s terms!) what was going on with my body and how through nutrition we could help alleviate my symptoms. Sam’s advice, guidance and friendly manner really helped me and has made such a difference to my well being which has had very positive impact on my every day life and, by extension, my family's too. Thank you Sam!"
