Consultations
Welcome…we hope we can be helpful.
If you are interested in scheduling a consultation appointment to discuss your medical concerns, please send us a brief summary of your health history (if you haven’t already). We don’t need to see any lab work at this time. Dr. Nathan reviews all emails to be sure your needs are in his scope of practice.
If you have any questions and/or concerns you can reach us at askdrnathan@gmail.com.
At this point, we are asking that your treating physician be involved in all discussions. Why? First of all, Dr. Nathan is only a consultant. He has retired from his clinical practice and is no longer treating patients directly. We have found that involving your medical practitioner (optimally a MD, DO, ND NP or PA with prescriptive authority and NOT following the Shoemaker protocols. ) from the beginning is the most productive and successful approach. This person can follow through on Dr. Nathan’s suggestions and observations, order labs, and most important, prescribe your medications. We can schedule follow-up appointments (usually in 4 month intervals) if necessary. Please contact your doctor to see if he/she is willing and able to play this role. Your treating physician needs to be well versed in treating environmentally acquired illnesses i.e. mold toxicity, Lyme disease, CFS, MCAS, etc. We have found that optimal treatment requires regular adjustments to your program. Dr. Nathan, as a consultant, cannot do that for you and you need a physician who is knowledgeable enough to be able to provide this level of care. There is a list of medical practitioners who have studied and consulted with Dr. Nathan here on the website in the “Practitioners” tab.
Dr. Nathan can sort through your laboratory work and review your symptoms and health history to help you and your treating physician to understand what may have been missed in terms of diagnoses or treatments and to provide direction as how to move forward and to understand the bigger picture of your illness. The majority of patients who use this service have had a lot of testing and seen many health care professionals but do not feel that they are progressing and are missing something or going in the wrong direction for treatment.
Before we schedule, you will need a Realtime Labs mycotoxins tests. If applicable, for Lyme Disease, Dr. Nathan prefers the IGeneX Immuno Blot for testing.
