Vitamin D3. Do you know *your* levels?? In general, if you ask your provider, they will tell you a normal level is 20-100ng/ml- dependent on the lab doing the test. For optimal health, a level between 60-80ng/ml works best. Adults should get their levels checked, then unless they are in the optimal range, start taking 4000iu per day. Get your levels rechecked after 3 months if supplementation. In addition, for best health- make sure to take your D3 w Magnesium & K2.

Why do I not promote D2? It takes more to do the same work, taken more often as the body cannot use it as efficiently. However, if you are aware that you must take more, more often- provided you track your numbers, I am ok w it’s use.

To *your* health!

River’s Edge Telehealth and Wellness will open for business two days per week starting August 9th, 2021. The days we are open will be Monday, Tuesday of one week; Thursday, Friday of the next. We will see most patients by telehealth (video visits) either by cell phone, iPad, or laptop, etc. It is a requirement that each patient must sign an agreement that they will obtain and use equipment to provide a new set of personal vital signs (temperature, pulse and pulse oximeter, blood pressure, height, weight, and if female- first day of your last menstrual period for every visit; along with an updated medication list. We will see patients age 6 and up as this is a telehealth practice and the child must have sufficient verbal skills to be able to answer questions. No pregnant patients. No chronic or dental pain control will be provided by this practice.

Every other Tuesday, we will see patients in the office from 1p-5p for those who need a hands-on physical examination.

If we are not already known to each other, you must schedule a video visit AT NO CHARGE, to “meet and greet”. It is imperative that you are comfortable with your provider and this first visit is to allow us to meet. No healthcare will be discussed. It is truly a meet & greet, to insure compatibility on both of our parts.

Welcome to River’s Edge!
