At Alternative Blood Tests, we’re committed to making your experience seamless, informative, and empowering.
Whether you’re new to lab based nutritional guidance or returning for follow up care, everything begins with understanding your unique needs and supporting you every step of the way.
What to Expect
We don’t just run lab tests, we uncover root causes. From your first interaction to your final follow up, your care is guided by clinical expertise and customized recommendations tailored to your body.
- One on One Expert Consultation: Your journey starts with a 60 minute virtual session with an experienced practitioner. We’ll go deep into your health history, current symptoms, and wellness goals to ensure every step is designed just for you.
- Personalized Lab Work: Based on your consultation, we’ll order a customized blood panel typically the “Gold Standard Test” covering 61 essential markers. This test forms the foundation of your care plan.
- Clear, Actionable Insights: Once results are in, we walk you through what they mean. No generic reports just clear explanations and a personalized wellness protocol built on what your labs reveal.
- Continued Support When Needed: Follow up sessions are available if additional testing or refined guidance is needed. We never push unnecessary tests only what’s clinically relevant.
Preparing for Your Visit
Even though our consultations happen virtually, preparation matters. Here’s how to get the most out of your experience:
- Gather Your Medical History: If you have past lab work, supplement lists, or medical records, have them ready to share during your consultation. These provide useful context for your practitioner.
- Plan for a Quiet Space: Choose a quiet, distraction free environment for your Zoom consultation. Treat it like an in office appointment. Your full attention helps us focus on what matters most: you.
- Fasting Instructions (if applicable): If your practitioner recommends fasting before your blood test, you’ll receive clear instructions in advance.
- Bring Questions: This is your time. Feel free to bring any questions or concerns. Our goal is to ensure you feel confident, informed, and empowered moving forward.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Alternative Blood Tests different from other lab services?
Our approach begins with a one-on-one consultation, not a generic panel. We use expert clinical insight to recommend comprehensive blood testing tailored to your symptoms, history, and wellness goals. Each step is guided by personalized care and a commitment to uncovering the root causes of health issues.
What is included in the initial $150 consultation?
You will receive a 60-minute virtual consultation with an experienced practitioner. This session covers your medical history, symptoms, diet, lifestyle, and prior lab work. The goal is to determine the most relevant blood markers for your unique health profile.
What does the standard blood test panel include?
Our foundational panel includes approximately 61 essential markers that evaluate key areas such as nutrient levels, blood sugar, hormones, immune and inflammatory activity, liver and kidney function, and cardiovascular risk. A complementary urine test is also included.
How much does the blood test cost?
The standard panel is approximately $325. Additional specialized tests may be recommended only if clinically necessary and are discussed with you beforehand.
When will I receive my test results?
Results are typically available within three business days. Once your results are in, your practitioner will contact you to determine whether a follow-up consultation is needed.
Is there an extra charge for follow-up consultations?
If no major concerns are found, a complimentary 15-minute review will be provided. If further discussion is needed, a full one-hour follow-up session is available for $150.
Do I need to fast before the blood test?
Depending on which markers are being tested, your practitioner may recommend fasting. If so, clear instructions will be provided in advance.
Do I have to be in a specific location to work with you?
No. We work with clients across the United States and internationally. Consultations are conducted via Zoom, and lab testing is coordinated through national or local facilities near you.
Do you provide treatment or just lab analysis?
We do not prescribe medications, but we do provide therapeutic guidance using nutrition, supplementation, and lifestyle recommendations based on your lab results. Our goal is to support natural healing and long-term wellness.
Is this covered by insurance?
Most of our services are not covered by insurance and are self-pay. However, many clients find the value in early detection, prevention, and avoiding unnecessary treatments to be well worth the investment.
Can I refer a friend or patient?
Absolutely. You can use our Refer a Patient page to easily share information or submit a referral form. We welcome referrals from both individuals and healthcare professionals.
What if I already have lab results from another provider?
We are happy to review prior lab work during your consultation. This information can be helpful in guiding further testing or validating existing findings.
What kind of health concerns can be addressed with this testing?
We have helped clients with a wide range of conditions, including fatigue, hormone imbalances, digestive issues, chronic skin conditions, cognitive decline, autoimmune disorders, metabolic dysfunction, and more.
How do I schedule a consultation?
Visit our Schedule Your Appointment page or contact us directly at 1-415-847-5020. We are happy to answer any additional questions and help you get started.
What is Functional Blood Analysis?
Functional Blood Analysis looks at blood markers through an optimal range rather than just disease ranges. This helps identify subtle imbalances and deficiencies that traditional lab interpretations may miss.
How often should I repeat my blood test?
It depends on your health goals and the results of your initial panel. Some clients repeat testing every three to six months to track progress and refine their protocols.
