Complete Blood Work Analysis is included in the 30 Day Professional Program because it takes and extensive amount of time.

# 9 What time zone are the phone consultations?
Eastern Standard Time, USA. If you're in another time zone, check world time zones https://timeanddate.com
# 10 When do I call that number?
Kindly call that number at the exact time of your phone consultation. Again please do not call in early. Consultations start on time and end on time.
#11 Do you conduct phone consults in any other language?
No, the consultations are in English only, because this prevents any misunderstanding in translation. All my clients in other countries speak fluent English. There is no translation.
# 12 Do you take insurance?
No and that is not by choice. This is considered a wellness consultation and it is not billable to insurance companies in the US. However there is good news...many clients have a health savings account (HSA) and there is a Visa or Master Card tied to that account. Those cards those are accepted because this is a wellness consultation. You'd have to check with your employer to see if that is an option for you. If so, you may use that card.
# 13 May my spouse who is living in my household be on the call to take notes for me?
Yes, only if they are respectful and understand they are not the patient, you are. I have never had an issue with spouses, ever.
# 14 I understand from reading this that you do not prescribe medications so do you suggest natural approaches, tools and other options for me?
Yes.
# 15 If I am on medications would you guide me what to ask my doctor when we are on this phone consultation?
Yes.
# 16 My spouse or significant other wants a consultation are you taking new patients?
If you are reading this here, yes I am; again the schedule gets full. And I may not be taking new patients after 2025.
# 17 What do I do if I have questions after this consultation?
The good news is you have access to email me directly for one week after your consultation because you'll dive into your wellness work when we are finished. Many patients felt reassured with this option allowing them to ask more questions if needed. And if you want another consultathion in the future that is an option as well. This is not your average doctor's "appointment" this is part of a proven system to educate you so that you can take control, get results and begin to transform your health.
# 18 What is 30-day professional wellness work?
Those details are discussed on the private 1 hour phone consulation and by application.
I look forward to guiding you.
God bless you,
Dr. Lana
