ASK MICKI
If you have a question on your test results or you're not sure where to start with something, book an Ask Micki, then email me your question at micki@purehealthclinic.co.uk. I'll get back to you asap. I'm usually pretty quick :) If it's quite a complex question, or several questions, please book a Mini E-Consult instead. I may suggest more depending on how much time it will take me/how complex it is. Don't worry if you're not sure, I'll advise you.
CASE REVIEW
This is if you need someone to go over your case history and pluck out any missing gaps/give you some suggestions. You can use it as a one-off and I can advise you on a possible way forward/what tests to take/what to investigate more/what supplements/diet/lifestyle changes might help. If you like, you can then book Progress Reviews as and when needed. You book, I send an email explaining what's happening next, send some forms, ask you to upload test results/GP letters or whatever to the portal and then, once I have all that, I will schedule you in to review. This is an email service so no need for appointments, and you get everything in writing, which is great for brain fog! Once I've analysed everything, I will email you my thoughts and specific recommendations - lifestyle, diet, supplements, other therapies, tests etc, as appropriate. It's then up to you what you do with that info.
For Progress Reviews, you are in charge and book when you need one. About 6 weeks between them is ideal, but some cases need more or less often. They are designed to see how you are doing and to 'progress' you, tweak protocols, assess priorities, what's worked, what needs more work etc etc. My advice generally would be don't leave it too long and stagnate or think something's not working - the point is to work out a way forward together. Once you book, I send you a couple of forms to complete - depending on your case - and a symptom checklist to rescore so we can tease out the priorities. I'll then analyse and report back with my thoughts/changes/recommendations.
TEST REPORT
Does what it says on the tin: this is for if you need help with test results eg. what they mean, the priorities, what to do about them etc. Note I may advise a Case Review if I think one is needed. Test Reports are per test. Please choose a complex one for eg. DUTCH, GI360, OAT, FDX etc. I may require more time, but I'll ask if needed. Book your report, then please email me whatever test(s) you want included (micki@purehealthclinic.co.uk), a brief paragraph about why you were testing so I have some context and any specific questions you need me to think about for you. I'll then schedule some time and get back to you by email with my thoughts asap.
"The response to my query was very informative.. As ever Micki is very thorough - she knows her trade inside out and is very professional but also very approachable - she will go to the ends of the earth to help you as much as she can and in my case asked another professional for their opinion. I honestly cannot fault the service she gives and I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who needs assistance." (after Ask Micki)
"Thank you for providing such a quick and thorough response."
