The GiltHealth Experience
Family Medicine
Establish ongoing care with your Family Medicine doctor through a comprehensive review of your health, medical history, and wellness goals. Your care will include the management of chronic conditions, preventive screenings, and the development of a personalized wellness plan tailored to your needs. Continue with regular follow-ups to review your progress, discuss any new concerns, adjust treatments or prescriptions, and stay on track toward long-term health and wellbeing.
Gut Health
In Functional Medicine, we often say that “all health begins in the gut.” During your consultation, you’ll have the opportunity to discuss your digestive symptoms and concerns, and review your gut health test results in detail with your doctor. Together, you’ll create a personalized plan to restore balance which may include tailored lifestyle and nutrition guidance, along with targeted nutraceutical or pharmaceutical therapies when appropriate. Your progress will be closely monitored, and your gut health protocol will be adjusted as needed to support lasting digestive and overall wellness.
Hormone Optimization
Have a comprehensive consultation with your doctor to discuss your hormone concerns, symptoms, and goals. You’ll have the opportunity to ask questions, learn about your treatment options, and undergo a physical exam with any necessary lab testing before beginning therapy. During follow-up visits, your doctor will review your results, monitor your progress, and adjust your treatment plan as needed, ensuring you feel supported and informed every step of the way on your journey to hormone balance and optimization.
Functional Medicine
Take a deep dive into your health history and current concerns with your doctor, who will perform a thorough root-cause assessment to uncover the factors affecting your wellbeing. Together, you’ll create a personalized functional wellness plan that includes tailored nutrition and lifestyle recommendations, targeted lab testing, and appropriate nutraceutical or pharmaceutical treatments. Your progress will be closely monitored with follow-ups to review results and refine your plan as needed for optimal, lasting health
