Follow-up questions they answered
- Is Vitality Renewal worth the cost of concierge medicine?
- Roxanne Boersma initially hesitated because the program is not inexpensive and requires upfront payment before insurance submission. However, she decided she was worth the investment after feeling poorly for years, ultimately finding the results to be worth her time, energy, and money. — Roxanne
- How long does it take to see results with Dr. Yvonne Karney?
- Roxanne saw noticeable differences in her health and blood tests within just three months. During this timeframe, she improved her A1C, lowered inflammation markers, and significantly reduced her cholesterol. — Roxanne
- Can functional medicine help with pre-diabetes and inflammation?
- Yes, according to Roxanne, the program helped her lower her A1C by a couple of percentage points, which was enough to bring her out of the pre-diabetic range. She also noted that her C-reactive protein, a measure of inflammation, decreased by several points. — Roxanne
