What to Expect from Your Follow up Visits?

At the end of our first visit, we together will determine the projected frequency of your follow-up appointments; follow-up visits are typically 30 minutes.

I use follow-up visits to review your progress, address your questions and any obstacles you are struggling with. Below are just a couple examples of what might be covered in a 30-minute follow-up session:

For a patient with high cholesterol, we may spend a session discussing ways to bump up the fiber in your diet. You might leave the session armed with a whole new set of high-fiber meals and snack ideas as well as a handout on the fiber content of various foods.

For someone with Diabetes we may use an entire session to review recent blood sugar numbers and how diet/medication maybe affecting overall blood sugar control.

As time goes on, the sessions become more individualized potentially adding exercise, sleep and stress management goals.
