When my mom got diagnosed with breast cancer when I was younger, it was the first experience that made me start to question traditional healthcare. Getting to the root cause and addressing dysfunction from a whole-body approach was such a "new" concept back then that not many people were talking about it yet, but I always believed there was another way to support the body and focus on a root-cause, preventative approach than what Western medicine was providing. As I started to deal with my own personal struggles - specifically hormonal acne, digestive issues, fatigue & estrogen dominance - I just kept getting frustrated with being asked very few questions and always being prescribed another "quick-fix" or band-aid solution before sending me on my way, that I knew it was time to take matters into my own hands. I started diving deeper into functional nutrition & lab testing and it has been the best decision I could have ever made for my health. I finally learned how my body worked, how best to support it on a deeper level and it even led me to unlearn some things that I thought were "healthy" but were actually making things worse. I finally discovered answers to the hormone, digestive, metabolic & mineral imbalances that I was struggling with for many years and my goal is to help you do the same. I want to help you reach your health potential by learning how to work with your body, not be at war with it. I know that our bodies are capable of healing and restoring optimal health and I am here to help you find the answers that you have been looking for! I want you to feel empowered & educated about stepping into your most vital self, take charge of your health and learn how to honor your body the way it was designed. Whether you're wanting to restore your metabolism & thyroid health, tackle your digestive issues, balance your hormones or optimize your fertility - I am here for you!

01
Do you accept insurance, HSA, or FSA?
Kale Diagnostics can directly accept HSA and FSA payment for full coverage. We are not in-network with any health insurance providers, so we do not accept insurance directly, but we are able to facilitate health insurance reimbursement at no additional cost. Many of our clients get partial reimbursement from insurance. Plans start at $249 monthly, which includes practitioner support and all functional lab test fees.
02
What is the basis for the cost of your services?
Kale Diagnostics provides a comprehensive approach to your health, including lab tests and fees, private support from trained nutritional practitioners, and extensive education at each level of support offered. While our program might require a more committed investment, we are also providing extensive support from a well-rounded team. Many of our clients have shared that their time with us was a turning point that allowed them to spend less on their long-term health. Fortunately, HSA and FSA, or an insurance superbill, can often reduce the cost of our services.
03
What results can I expect to see when working with Kale Diagnostics?
For some, their journey with Kale Diagnostics is a 180-degree, life-changing experience that provides relief from a laundry list of symptoms and years of struggle. For others, we are a helpful stop in their continued journey. The majority of our clients (83%) do see symptom reduction within the first three months, and while we cannot guarantee results, we are always committed to providing the very best and most comprehensive care.
04
Do you diagnose or treat?
No, we do not diagnose or treat diseases, but you can work with us if you have one or multiple conditions, and we can share alternative treatment options that can be approved by your doctor. It’s important to note that Kale Diagnostics is not intended to replace an individual relationship with a qualified healthcare professional and is not intended as medical advice. Kale Diagnostics encourages you to continue visiting and being treated by your primary care physician or healthcare provider.
05
How does my relationship with my doctor play into my work with Kale Diagnostics?
We encourage you to meet regularly with your doctor, and if needed, we can provide resources that support your doctor-patient relationship while you work with the Kale Diagnostics team to support your desired health outcomes.
