Insightful Conversations. Personalized Solutions
Personalized, Professional Care with Our Skilled Functional Medicine Practitioners: At our practice, we offer one-on-one, specialty consultations designed to uncover the root causes of your symptoms and support your path to long-term wellness. Our appointment structure is designed to be flexible, supportive, and completely tailored to your needs. All fees are pro-rated based on time spent with your practitioner.
Functional Medicine Consultations
At 4 Better Health, we practice Functional Medicine with a focus on uncovering nutritional, biochemical, and lifestyle imbalances that may be driving symptoms such as fatigue, brain fog, digestive issues, pain, or dependence on medications. We take time to truly listen to each person’s unique story, connecting the dots to reveal the bigger picture of health. Using advanced, science-based testing, we search for underlying deficiencies or hidden triggers that keep the body from thriving. Our recommendations are always tailored to the individual—whether through lifestyle changes, optimizing digestion, using food as medicine, or supporting detoxification—to improve nutrient absorption and restore energy, support resilience, longevity and vitality
Initial Consultation
Your healing journey begins with a comprehensive initial visit, held in person at our Hopkinton office. *Unless you are in Florida at the time of your consultation as our practitioners have full licensure for Telehealth with Florida residents*.
Before scheduling, we require you to complete and submit a detailed health history form to help us ensure we are able to support you and to prepare for your time with us.
Your first appointment—lasting about 1.5 to 2 hours—gives us the time to dive deeply into your health story. Together, we’ll review your history, current symptoms, and any prior treatments or lab results while beginning to connect patterns that may explain what you’re experiencing. By the end of this visit, you’ll receive a personalized Functional Medicine testing plan along with your initial recommendations, which may include tailored nutrition, lifestyle strategies, and supplement support.
Note: Once established, you may choose to do follow-up appointments by phone or telehealth, if clinically appropriate and more convenient for you.
First Follow-Up Appointment
Your initial follow-up visit usually takes place 2–4 weeks after your initial appointment. During this session, we’ll review your test results, discuss how the first set of recommendations have been working for you, and map out the next phase of your care. These appointments typically last between 45 minutes and 1 hour.
Ongoing Follow-Up Appointments
As your health improves, we’ll schedule ongoing visits every 2–4 months to keep your progress moving forward. These check-ins provide an opportunity to review your results, fine-tune your care plan, and continue working toward lasting wellness and vitality. Follow-up appointments typically last 30–60 minutes.
Virtual & Remote Options

We’re pleased to offer secure, confidential video appointments for follow-ups. You’ll receive an appointment confirmation by email, and a video link will be sent one week prior (with a text reminder the day of). There’s no software to download, and our platform is HIPAA-compliant.

Good Faith Estimate Notice
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care may cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises.
