For patients in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area, we recommend fasting for your first in-office visit. Any recommended lab work can be done right in our office, immediately following your scheduled appointment.
Lab work may be covered by insurance.* Depending on the specific tests you and our DietMD® team choose to order, lab costs can range from $0 to $400. There are no surprise bills - we can recommend lab work that fits into any budget!
Please print and fill out our DietMD® food questionnaire before your first visit. Bring the completed form to your first appointment with us.
