Patient-Focused Care

The Sancta Familia Center for Integrative Medicine approaches each patient individually and in the context of their family situation to help choose the best course of treatment. Nutrients offer a fundamental and natural approach to promote desired results and wellness with a much reduced side-effect profile while reserving the option to use traditional therapies in the future.  Integrative management is a safe compliment, and in some cases, alternative to traditional pharmaceutical based  interventions.

Laboratory Testing Procedures:

If laboratory testing is required, patients receive either a paper requisition or the order is submitted electronically.  By arranging for laboratory testing in this manner, the laboratory will bill your insurance directly. Be sure to bring your insurance card with you to the laboratory appointment.

For most testing we prefer the testing to be done at either ChildLab or LabCorp, as we have found their service to be consistently the most accurate and reliable. Additional specialty testing may be ordered though Doctor’s Data, Inc., IgeneX, Inc. Genova Diagnostics, Inc. or other specialty laboratories.  Billing for specialty testing is arranged by each laboratory directly with the patient.
