Medical Testing
At Flourish Medical + Wellness we take a holistic approach to medicine. Therefore, we offer more testing options than the typical blood work labs. What this means for you is that we can use clinical results to determine the cause of physical symptoms you may be experiencing. These deeper-dive options will help us see the full picture of your health and create a personalized treatment plan.
Why We’re Different
Most of the initial consultations at FMW include a comprehensive blood panel. This panel gives us a deep dive into the following: gut health, toxin load, parasites, detoxification pathways, adrenal function, nutrient deficiencies, insulin resistance, sex hormone balance, and complete thyroid function. These levels serve as a helpful guide that enables us to better understand what is taking place internally. However, we do not simply treat the number (result) on the page, rather we assess lab values along with presenting symptoms.
What This Means for You
Our in-depth testing provides a more complete picture and improves our patient outcomes. The interpretation of the lab results is likely much different than what you’ve experienced in the past. We will discuss each one in detail and compare you to other healthy individuals (optimal levels) rather than just comparing you to the ‘normal’ range. We work toward optimization in order to proactively prevent disease and keep your health moving in a positive direction.

Understanding Your Lab Results
In this episode of The Flourishing Life Podcast, hosts Tad and Jackie delve into common myths and misconceptions surrounding lab testing and interpretation. They discuss the significance of reference ranges, the impact of population health on lab results, and the importance of context when interpreting lab data. At Flourish we seek to optimize health for our patients, not just treating you to achieve normal or average ranges. Listen here for a deeper dive on normal vs. optimal.
We want to help you make informed decisions regarding your care. Gain a clearer understanding in this helpful video as Jackie Tewes guides you through the “normal” range vs. YOUR “optimal” range in lab results.
