Your First Visit

The relationship begins during your first visit with an in-depth interview about your lifestyle, medical history, and current health. Your physician will explore your entire health history, and get to know you and your unique situation well. After the first visit, your Raby Institute physician may consult with other members of the team, and may recommend further medical steps and testing.
