If you have any history of diabetes, hypertension or any other situation that effects kidney function, labs are mandatory prior to initiating treatment.  If you have had labs done in the last 6 months you may upload them below.

 These can be ordred at any lab (if you would like to use your medical coverage insurance) or can be done at Creekside North (if this option is more affordable than co-pay/co-insurance/deductible).  I have NO way of knowing which labs your insurance covers or to what extent.  Please contact your insurance directly.  

ADD-ON 

Factors, such as hormone imbalances, thyroid dysfunction, insulin resistance, or nutrient deficiencies, can contribute to difficulty losing weight. The following list is not all-inclusive but represents some of the more common reasons why weight loss may be challenging.  

If you have never had these tested or are experiencing symptoms like fatigue, cravings, or stubborn weight gain, you may want to consider checking your levels. If you are unsure, we can discuss whether additional testing would be beneficial during your consultation, and we can always add labs afterward if needed.

If you would like any additional lab testing at this time you will have the option to have them done at Creekside North, Take a lab order to the lab of your choice, or we can fax an order.  

For LABS only, we DO take insurance.  Our labs are drawn in office, and processed through QUEST labs.  There is a $35 lab draw fee, which is less than most labs charge.  THIS IS SEPARATE FROM ANY BILL YOU WILL RECEIVE FROM QUEST OR YOUR INSURANCE. 

Men's Hormone Panel 
Hormonal imbalances, particularly low testosterone, can contribute to weight gain, muscle loss, and fatigue.

Lab Panel includes:

• Total and Free Testosterone: Assess overall and bioavailable testosterone levels.
• Estradiol (E2): High levels can contribute to fat gain.
• DHEA-S: Reflects adrenal gland function and overall hormone balance.
• Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin (SHBG): Influences how much testosterone is available.

Women's Hormone Panel 
Estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone imbalances can affect metabolism, fat distribution, and energy levels.

Lab Panel includes:

• Estradiol: Assess overall estrogen levels and balance.
• Progesterone: Imbalance can affect weight and mood.
• Testosterone (Total and Free): Plays a role in muscle mass and fat distribution.
• Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) & Luteinizing Hormone (LH): Provide insight into reproductive health and hormonal balance.

Thyroid Panel 
An underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) can slow metabolism, making weight loss more difficult.

Lab Panel includes:

• Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH): Initial marker for thyroid function.
• Free T4 and Free T3: Assess active thyroid hormone levels.
• Reverse T3 (rT3): Can indicate issues with thyroid hormone conversion.
• Thyroid Antibodies (TPO, TgAb): Screen for autoimmune thyroid conditions like Hashimoto’s.

Diabetes & Insulin Resistance
Blood sugar imbalances, including insulin resistance and prediabetes, can make weight loss harder

Lab Panel includes:

• Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c): Reflects average blood glucose over 3 months.
• Insulin Levels: High fasting insulin suggests insulin resistance.
• Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT): Measures body’s response to sugar intake.
