What makes us different is that we take an OBJECTIVE look at your entire body. We take a "holistic" look at the big picture. We use objective 3rd party testing to get the results we're looking for. We're not into generic 1 size fits all "cookie cutter" approaches. We want to give you a long-term sustainable solution. And please remember, fat melts off your body as a side effect of getting healthy. Our primary goal is to get you healthy once again.

Very simple. Dr. Richeson will ask you some questions, do a thorough health history, and determine if you're a case he can accept. If he thinks he can help he'll give you that option. If he doesn't think he can help, he'll work to find somebody who can.

ABSOLUTELY! Our protocols are extremely safe and there is nothing like it. There are very few doctors that will do objective functional testing and work towards finding the ROOT CAUSE of the health challenge. Most simply give a med / chemical cover up.

It's hard to know without having a quick discovery call to determine your goals. A person looking to lose 15 pounds will be different from a person looking to lose 150 pounds. Keep in mind we are ALL unique & different and every patient has a unique care plan that is different from anybody else. We do this via our objective lab testing etc. But this is why we do complimentary discovery calls to determine if our functional weight loss program would make sense for you etc.

Unfortunately no insurance company pays for weight loss. However, if you're MOTIVATED we'll work with you. Our protocols are very affordable and keep in mind that we've never turned anybody away because of finances. 

We are 100% virtual. The beautiful thing about functional medicine and our functional approach is that it can be done from ANYWHERE! After our initial discovery call (to determine if our protocol makes sense for you) we'll provide you with test kits so TOGETHER we can customize a safe, natural, & highly effective protocol based on YOUR individual needs. 

Nope! Our practice is 100% virtual. All of our discovery calls are done over the phone.

We will provide recommendations based on where you're nutrient deficient / depleted. Again, this is based on the testing that is performed. We'll give you supplement recommendations as well as give you food recommendations to eat more of that are abundant in the nutrients where you're depleted. 

YES! Even though our functional protocols are done virtually, we provide Footer24/7 email support. If you have a question / obstacle to work through we'll provide you the support & guidance you need.

Only if you want to. Obviously exercise is a good & healthy thing to do but it's not mandatory while doing our program. Our program is food based with a functional approach so we're not going to say go do a bunch of strenuous exercise to lose fat. Again, you can if you want to but that's not our main focus.

No! No counting calories or points or anything that is cumbersome, confusing, or NOT sustainable long-term. It's more about eating the right foods for YOU, again done via the testing we do and our functional approach!

No. We don't give medications. What we do is safe, natural, & highly effective. We do this WITHOUT harmful medications or risky procedures.

Absolutely! So many people come to us with "food confusion". We also call this "INFObesity". There is so much conflicting information out there that they get paralyzed and confused. We help you break through this confusion and give you CLARITY via our objective 3rd party lab testing we do.
