Some women are scared to ask about hormones.
Some are scared not to.
Some want natural options first.
Some want evidence-based HRT.
Most want honest guidance without pressure.

At Family Doc Direct:
• We explain options
• We weigh risks and benefits together
• We move at your pace

No judgment. Ever.

Hormone changes don’t wait for a certain birthday.
Fatigue, weight changes, brain fog, mood shifts, poor sleep — these often show up YEARS before anyone checks hormones.

In DPC, we use targeted blood tests to look at estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid, cortisol, and more — and we talk about what they mean for your life.

👉 Have you ever been told, “Your labs are normal,” but you still didn’t feel normal?

If you are my patient you know that I often prescribe vitamin V : vacations and traveling. It’s scientifically proven that helps your health!

How many times have you heard:
“Insurance doesn’t cover this blood test, so we can’t order it.”

And yet… your symptoms didn’t magically disappear.
Fatigue, brain fog, weight changes, mood shifts — still there.

In Direct Primary Care, we don’t let insurance dictate your care.
If a blood test makes medical sense, we can order it.
And we take the time to investigate what’s really going on.

Have you ever been told ‘no’ to a test you felt you needed?

Most people think heart disease shows up suddenly.
It doesn’t.
It develops quietly over years.

Blood tests in DPC help us look early at cholesterol patterns, inflammation, blood sugar, and risk factors — before they turn into major problems.
Prevention is powerful when you catch things early.

👉 When was the last time your heart health was explained in plain language?

🦷❤️ Floss for Your Heart! 🫀

Groundbreaking research shows that Streptococcus viridans—bacteria hiding in your gums—can sneak into artery plaques. When triggered, they may cause inflammation that ruptures the plaque and sparks a heart attack.

🚨 This means good oral health isn’t just about your teeth—it’s about your heart too!

👉 Protect yourself:
✅ Floss daily
✅ See your dentist regularly
✅ Keep blood pressure & cholesterol under control

A simple daily habit may be one of the best ways to keep your heart strong! 💪
