Why Is Our Program 6 Months?

If you've been struggling with your health for years, it's unrealistic to expect your body to completely turn things around in a few weeks. We often ask patients to think about how long they've been dealing with their symptoms. If you've felt unwell for 5, 10, or even 20 years, giving your body six months to start addressing what has been going on is actually a relatively short period of time. That doesn't mean it takes six months to start feeling better. Our goal is for you to begin seeing progress much sooner. But functional medicine is not a one visit approach. Finding the problem is only the beginning.

What happens during those 6 months?

We review your full picture. Your program opens with a walkthrough of your Initial Visit results, in context, tied to your history and symptoms. We build your personalized plan. Instead of a one size fits all protocol, your recommendations come from your own history, symptoms, and test results. We give your body time to respond. This matters. We need enough time to put your plan into action, see what is working, and understand what may still need attention. We adjust as we go. Your plan is not static. As your symptoms change and we learn more, we can modify your treatment, repeat testing when appropriate, and keep moving you forward. We help you maintain your progress. Our goal is not to hand you a list of supplements and send you on your way. We want you to understand your health and leave the program with a plan for what comes next.

How does the process work?

It starts with a 75-minute Initial Visit with Dr. Skrzypek: your health history, symptoms, and what you've already tried. From there, she orders the testing that fits your picture, whether that's DUTCH, GI-MAP, a full thyroid panel, or advanced metabolic work. If you enroll in the 6-Month Program, she reviews every result with you in detail and builds your personalized root-cause plan.

Is NaturaMed covered by insurance?

NaturaMed does not accept insurance. Some services may qualify for health spending accounts such as an HSA or FSA. The cost of any recommended testing is reviewed with you before it is ordered.

Testimonials

Testimonials

From women
who started with this visit.

Chronic Fatigue

Erica

Fatigue & Weight

I was frustrated and disheartened by every attempt I had made to get healthier. I couldn't figure out why I was so fatigued, why it was so difficult to do day-to-day things, why I couldn't lose weight. Every traditional doctor I saw wanted to prescribe something to make the symptoms go away, but no one would take my concerns about hormones seriously. The results have been remarkable.

Hypothyroidism

Mary

Thyroid

Autoimmune

"I came to Dr. Skrzypek because I had a lot of issues that were becoming more complex, and I needed something more than the traditional 15 minutes in a doctor's office. If I had found someone like Dr. Skrzypek back then - someone who looks at you as a whole person and finds the root cause instead of just prescribing a pill - I wouldn't be at 55 having gone through an autoimmune condition and having my thyroid removed. Investing in your health changes everything."

Gut Issues

Monica

Digestive Issues

"I had horrible gut issues - that was actually the main problem. I was having problems with my stomach and gut for about three years before I went to see Dr. Skrzypek. What made me seek someone else was that other doctors would just say, 'Here's this medicine, lots of people take it their whole lives.' I never wanted that. I wanted to find the root cause. Dr. Skrzypek ordered more tests than I'd ever had before and gave me a step-by-step guide as to how we're going to fix it."

Menopause

Catherine

Hormones

Anxiety

"When you turn 50, everything changes. I was having the same blood test, my medication kept changing, I was going through depression and anxiety. I love my gynecologist and primary doctor, but I was in menopause for years and I did not know. I asked both doctors and it was always dismissed. Dr. Skrzypek had answers to so many questions that I had just in the first hour. I could talk for an hour just about the testing that she did because now it all makes sense. Everything is like a puzzle and everything is just falling into place."
