Labs We Recommend

Have you ever had labs run at your family provider and everything comes back “normal” but you still feel off? There are several reasons for that. In a traditional medical setting, lab results are usually interpreted using “normal” reference ranges that are based on averages of the general population—not necessarily on what’s optimal for your health. These ranges are designed to catch overt disease, not subtle imbalances, so you can fall within them and still have symptoms if your levels are on the low or high end of “normal.” Factors like nutrient depletion, early-stage hormonal changes, chronic inflammation, or stress-related dysfunction often don’t trigger an abnormal flag, meaning your labs look fine on paper while your body is signaling otherwise. Additionally, the more diagnostic, deeper lab testing isn’t typically covered by insurance. So, if you want more individualize diagnostics, you typically need to pay out of pocket. Below are the labs we recommend and love to help you better understand how your body operates. Make a 15 min lab consult appointment with Dr. Leisha if there are specific biomarkers you would like tested.
