As a functional medicine doctor it’s my mission to help you live ALL days of your life as healthy as possible.  

You should be able to wake up each day feeling energized and excited about your day. Your health is the “trunk of the tree” and your relationships, family, finances, career, and contribution are “branches of the tree”. You should be able to feel, think, move and function in all areas of your life at your highest potential. 

However, 

In my  24 years of working with patients I’ve observed  one common thing:

Nobody is planning to get sick, develop functional limitations, lose quality of life or spend the last years of their lives in nursing homes.  

And yet, 

We have more people who struggle with chronic diseases than ever before …

We have more elrderly people who lose their physical or cognitive  function and require help with basic daily activities therefore have no choice but to spend the last years of their lives in long term facilities.  

My most eye-opening experience was when I started working in rehabilitation facilities & nursing homes in NY/NJ. I saw the distress of how people spend the last years of their lives with sickness, significant functional and cognitive limitations. 

I’ve seen many lives torn apart by chronic PREVENTABLE diseases…

I believe that your body is the most valuable gift you’ll ever receive and has an enormous capacity to heal. I believe you can live and enjoy ALL days of your life being active, hiking, dancing, playing tennis and spending quality time with your family and friends. 

So don’t wait for a health crisis or diagnoses.

Start with our comprehensive  foundational health assessment.  

With Love,  

Dr. Larisa

Credentials and professional background:

Comprehensive Foundational Health assessment

Every journey starts with the decision to make the first step. Before you go you need to know exactly where you are. This one time assessment is designed to evaluate the current state of your health, determine the root cause(s) of your symptoms and create an integrative 7 part health plan to help your body heal faster. 

Here is what you Get:

Labs review - Advanced Biomarker data.

In-depth diagnostic panel measuring inflammation, heart health, cholesterol, expended thyroid assessment, nutrient status and more. 

 It will help determine your current state of health and identify underlying causes. One condition may stem from different causes and the causes can be different for everyone, even if they struggle with the same symptoms. Therefore the treatment plan will be different for everyone.

Identifying imbalances and dysfunction in your body systems even prior to the development of a disease

11 biological systems of your body work together to support you through your daily life. When dysfunction affects one body system, it throws other body systems out of balance which can lead to further health problems or disease. Chronic disease never develops overnight, imbalances and dysfunction in the body always precede the diagnosis.  We identify and address these imbalances and dysfunction to help change the future trajectory of your health.

Insights about variables that drive your imbalances, symptoms or disease

Even people who do all the right things can still develop dysfunction or disease due to lesser known variables that promote atherosclerosis, inflammation, oxidative stress and nutrient deficiencies. Surprisingly, it might not be what you think! Getting insights about these variables will determine your next step in the treatment plan.

Awareness to help you make better health decisions so you can create destiny of health & vitality

Awareness is the first step in transforming your health and life. I believe when you are fully informed and aware of how your body is designed and functions it opens up the doorway for you to shift from unconscious creation of dysfunctions & disease to conscious creation of vitality & true health.

Your personal visual storybook that maps out your health since your birth

Based on the careful evaluation of  your past medical, social, personal history and intake form your data will be mapped out on a timeline for you to clearly see the progression of your current health condition. This step is instrumental in helping to get to the root cause(s).

Personalized 7 Part Foundational Health Plan with Advanced Personalized Supplement Protocol

To transform your health you need a new road map. You can’t employ the same strategy and expect a different outcome, no matter how hard  you try. You’ll receive a personalized 7 part foundational health plan to address the whole you so you have clarity on your next steps. Advanced supplement protocol that WORKS is tailored to you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is a good candidate for this assessment?

Anyone who’s looking for a different approach that gives them control over their own health. Someone who’s ready to get to the bottom of their symptoms, go beyond the traditional approach to explore all the possible factors that may be holding them back.

Or

Anyone who's more proactive about their health, want to stay healthy and create destiny of health and vitality.

Why can’t my primary care doctor do the same?

Conventional medicine operates out of a completely different paradigm than functional medicine. The focus is mainly on managing symptoms and uncovering a disease when it’s already present. Unfortunately, in the current insurance-based conventional model doctors are very limited on how much time they can spend with the patient.

Foundational health assessment is designed to assess your health based on a functional medicine body-systems approach to look for underlying physiological imbalances and root causes of symptoms or disease.

Do you work remotely?

Yes we work remotely. Dr. Larisa serves patients in New Jersey, New York and Florida. We connect remotely through our secure video conferencing with screen share capability.

What if I don’t have good insurance to cover the lab testing?

For those that do not have good lab coverage True Health P.C. has made special arrangements with all of our lab vendors to provide you with direct lab pricing for tests not covered by insurance. Most have found that this cost is less than their copay for the same tests. It also gives us the freedom to order a more comprehensive workup without concern for a denial of coverage, as the labs are paid for upfront.

What kind of payment do you accept?

Various payment options including HSA/FSA; super-bill is provided upon request to submit for possible insurance reimbursement.

Can we continue working together after the foundational assessment?

Yes! If you would like to be supported further and benefit from the services provided by True Health, P.C, we will discuss whether our functional medicine model is best suited for your needs and goals at this time. We are looking forward to having as an important member to our practice.
