At DPC, we recognize that traditional healthcare often offers limited testing options. Your Care Team, equipped with a deep understanding of your health, will recommend advanced specialty tests tailored to uncover the root causes of your symptoms. This comprehensive approach helps them design a holistic health plan customized to your individual needs and goals.
During your initial visit, you and your doctor will discuss your health goals and review appropriate testing options, which may include a combination of blood work and advanced specialty testing. It’s advisable to complete any recommended blood work at least two weeks prior to your follow-up visit to ensure the results are available for discussion.
For any queries about the testing process or specific recommendations from your doctor, please contact your care manager via your My Health portal.
All testing is conducted at an additional cost, not covered under your DPC membership. Based on your initial 60-minute consultation, your doctor will suggest a personalized testing plan, considering your health history, current concerns, and goals. This plan may involve:
Blood work: Analysing essential nutrients, thyroid function, cardiovascular health, metabolic functions, inflammatory markers, hormones, and more.
You can complete your testing at any lab within the networks of LabCorp or Quest Diagnostics, which are widely available across the US.
We automatically receive the results when they are ready from the labs.
Testing orders, including blood work and specialty tests, are only placed after establishing care with your DPC doctor. Testing should not be ordered or completed before your initial consultation. Your doctor will recommend when to undertake these tests, usually during follow-up visits, based on your ongoing progress and health goals.
Most blood work results are returned within 10-14 business days, although timing for specialty tests may vary. Please consider this timeline when scheduling follow-up appointments to avoid the need for rescheduling. Results from any lab tests ordered by your clinician are automatically sent to us via our secure online portal.
If you opt to do blood work through your primary care provider (PCP), you can directly upload these results to My Health portal or ask your medical team to request them from your PCP’s office.
DPC currently operates in Orlando, and if you reside in this area, you have the option to choose between in-person appointments at our center or virtual consultations. Members located elsewhere in the United States can still sign up for our services and receive care entirely online through video visits with their doctor and health coach. The quality of care is consistent, whether online or in-person, but the mode of communication may differ based on your location:
