If you are visiting us for the first time there are a few things we would like you to know:
We strive to stay on time, as your time is just as valuable as ours. Your part in the process is simple, just come in 10 minutes before your scheduled appointment time if you have the necessary intake forms filled out. If you need to fill out the intake forms at the office please arrive 45 minutes before the scheduled appointment time.
If your appointment is virtual, please make sure you are connected to the internet and log on about 5 minutes before your appointment time.
INITIAL CONSULT: Depending on the purpose of your visit, you should expect your initial consultation with Dr. Baayeh to take about 60 to 90 minutes.
During this initial visit, you and Dr Baayeh will discuss your overall health, your lifestyle, stress management and nutrition, as well as your past medical history, current health concerns, health goals, and any medications or supplementation that you might be currently taking.
A comprehensive physical exam will also be completed during this appointment and additional testing may be ordered.
Dr Baayeh typically does not prescribe anything or make recommendations during the first visit unless absolutely needed.
SECOND CONSULT (TREATMENT VISIT): You and Dr. Baayeh will spend an hour together to design a personalized treatment plan based on lab results, physical exam findings, diet and initial intake findings.
A deposit is required for all new patient appointments. Please let us know as soon as possible prior to your appointment if you can’t make it or would like to reschedule. Cancellations with less than 24 hours notice, or a no call no show will result in a $50 fee.
Insurance Reimbursement Policy:
I am currently available as a wellness consultant globally to work with you online and via telehealth consultations. As a wellness consultant at this time, I am unable to accept insurance. We will provide you with all the necessary forms to self-submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement.

Naturopathic medicine is right for everyone!
The first visit is an hour and half (90 minutes) and during this time, we discuss your entire medical history and gather relevant information. We evaluate whatever labs brought in and order more testing if needed. In addition, we do a detailed head to toe physical exam. Your visit will be with Dr Baayeh, not with a nurse, or physician assistant. You will be able to ask whatever questions you have. The second visit is an hour and it is during this visit that we put together a personalized treatment plan based on labs and other findings. Dr Baayeh typically does not prescribe anything or make recommendations during the first visit unless absolutely needed.
Naturopathic modalities benefits virtually every illness, symptoms and diagnosis. Because of our approach of treating the person, not just the illness, and all the many treatment therapies available to us, patients with a wide variety of symptoms notice improvements from naturopathic care.
YES! Dr Baayeh uses both standardized and alternative testing to get to the root cause of health issues. Because she is a licensed medical practitioner, she is able to order labs and does so with almost every patient.

At this time, Dr Baayeh is unable to accept insurance for patient visits. Most insurance companies will cover blood work ordered by Dr Baayeh. I do not want insurance standards, policies and reimbursement fees to dictate my recommendations and guidance for clients. I provide a personalized approach for your unique health situation, not swayed by the insurance decisions that often stand in the way of a conventional medicine approach. In some states, insurance companies will cover the cost of naturopathic care and we provide super-bills/receipts for insurance reimbursement. The easiest way to determine what aspects of your visit will be covered by your plan is to contact your insurance provider. Otherwise, all major credit cards are accepted.
Payment is due at the time services are rendered. We accept cash, debit, and credit cards including Health Savings Accounts (HSA). A deposit is required for all new patient appointments.
We should know if the treatment plan in working in the first 2-3 weeks after protocol is given. For some people it takes a little as a few days to 1 week and for others as much as 4 weeks to feel a difference. In acute cases, you should begin to feel better very quickly.
Please contact us directly with any questions, comments, or scheduling inquiries you may have.
