I work with several independent laboratories, enabling me to conduct a wide range of diagnostic pathology tests. These include:

• Basic tests such as:
  • Full blood count
  • Iron studies
  • Vitamin D levels
  • Inflammatory bowel screening
  • Pathogenic infections
  • Cholesterol levels
  • Liver and kidney health assessments
• Advanced Panels:
  • Thyroid Function Tests
  • Inflammatory Markers
  • Hormonal Assessments
  • Micronutrient Analysis
  • Food Sensitivity Testing
  • Immune System Profiling
  • Intestinal Permeability (Leaky Gut) Testing

DUTCH Test

The Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones (Dutch) provides an in-depth analysis of your hormonal health. It measures:

• Adrenal Hormones: Cortisol and cortisone levels throughout the day.
• Sex Hormones: Estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and their metabolites.
• Melatonin: Evaluates sleep-wake cycles and overall sleep health.
• Oxidative Stress Markers: Indicates cellular damage and antioxidant status.
• 
  

Who is DUTCH useful for?

The Dutch test is highly beneficial for individuals dealing with hormonal imbalances, such as those related to adrenal fatigue, menopause, andropause, PMS, and sleep disturbances. It helps in creating a personalized treatment plan to balance hormones and improve overall well-being.

OAT Test

The Organic Acids Test (OAT) is a comprehensive assessment that measures organic acids excreted in urine. These acids are byproducts of metabolic processes and provide valuable information about:

• Nutritional Deficiencies: Identifies deficiencies in vitamins and minerals.
• Gut Health: Detects dysbiosis, yeast, and bacterial overgrowth.
• Detoxification: Assesses the efficiency of your detox pathways.
• Energy Production: Evaluates mitochondrial function and energy production.
• Neurotransmitter Metabolism: Offers insights into mental health and cognitive function.

Who is an OAT useful for?

Anyone with suspected metabolic dysfunction. Some symptoms/diagnoses that may correlate

with metabolic dysfunction include, but are not limited to:

● Anxiety

● Autism Spectrum Disorders

● ADHD, ADD

● Celiac’s Disease

● Bipolar Disorder

● Depression

● Diabetes: Type 1 and Type 2

● Digestive Disorders (IBS, Crohn’s, IBD, etc.)

● Fatigue

● Fibromyalgia

● Gastrointestinal dysbiosis

● Insulin resistance

● Neurological disorders

● Obesity, inability to lose weight

● Psychological disorders

● Vulvodynia

● Children

● Pregnant women

● Anyone and everyone

 Comprehensive testing for food and environmental allergies can provide valuable insights, helping to uncover hidden triggers and guide effective treatment plans.

IgE tests measure immediate allergic reactions that occur shortly after exposure to an allergen. These reactions are mediated by Immunoglobulin E antibodies and can result in symptoms such as:

• Hives
• Asthma
• Anaphylaxis
• Itching
• Swelling

IgE testing is essential for identifying acute allergies to substances such as: Pollen, Pet Dander, Dust Mites, Mold, Foods

IgG tests, on the other hand, measure delayed allergic reactions that can take hours or even days to develop. These reactions are mediated by Immunoglobulin G antibodies and often contribute to chronic conditions such as:

• Digestive issues
• Migraines
• Fatigue
• Skin problems (e.g., eczema)
• Joint pain

IgG testing is particularly useful for identifying food sensitivities that may not cause immediate symptoms but contribute to long-term health issues. Common foods tested in IgG panels include: 

Dairy, Gluten, Eggs, Soy, Nuts

1. Personalized Treatment Plans: By pinpointing specific allergens, healthcare providers can develop customized dietary and lifestyle recommendations to address your unique needs.
2. Improved Digestive Health: Identifying and eliminating food sensitivities can alleviate digestive problems such as bloating, gas, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
3. Enhanced Immune Function: Reducing exposure to allergens can help decrease inflammation and boost overall immune system function.
4. Better Skin Health: Avoiding allergens can lead to clearer skin and reduced symptoms of conditions like eczema and psoriasis.
5. Increased Energy Levels: Removing food sensitivities from your diet can reduce chronic fatigue and improve overall energy and vitality.
