Consultations
New Patient Consultations
Your new patient consultations will consist of a 50 or 80 minute appointment depending on the amount of time you choose. We advise patients to schedule a longer appointment if they have multiple test results, questions or an extensive medical history. Dr. Martin will spend this allotted time listening to you, going over your history, performing a physical exam, reviewing and educating you on any recent lab results, and recommending state-of-the-art diagnostic testing based on your individual needs. Dr. Martin tailors the appointment to each individual.
1st Follow-Up Consultations
The first follow-up appointment with Dr. Martin is required to be a minimum of 50 minutes. This will allow Dr. Martin time to address your concerns, educate you on your test results, answer your questions, provide a plan and healing recommendations moving forward. If you have performed multiple diagnostic tests it would be in your best interest to schedule an 80 minute appointment to allow for enough time to address all your test results.
Follow-Up Consultations
Follow-up Consultations with Dr. Martin are intended for the continuation of patient care. You may select either a 25, 50 or 80 minute appointment. If you are unsure of the length that you may need for your follow-up appointment, our patient care coordinator will gladly assist you while scheduling.
Nutrition Consultations
It consists of a minimum of a 60-minute appointment with Remi, our Nurse Practitioner at Global Medicine. Proper nutrition is extremely important in supplementing your healing journey. Our goal is to individualize a diet specific to your needs. We emphasize nutrition that supports your mitochondria and repairs the integrity of your cell. Remi will provide you with informative handouts and tools to successfully integrate these principles into your busy life. It is Remi’s mission to empower you to make mindful decisions about the food that you are consuming to fuel your body.
Infusions
Vitamin C Infusions
High dose Vitamin C Infusions support the immune system, help combat infection, acute & chronic viral infections, cross-link collagen to repair tissue from surgery or injury and decrease scarring. If patients are very ill we will give high dose vitamin C with normal saline to improve hydration. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant and can also be utilized prophylactically to help boost the immune system allowing the body to defend properly against foreign invaders.
Myer’s Infusions
Myer’s infusions are a smaller version of our Vitamin C intravenous drips, delivering a powerful punch of nutrients in less than 15 minutes. Myer’s Cocktails are recommended for patients to assist with detox, boost their immune system, provide the body necessary nutrients to heal and address deficiencies so common in chronic fatigue.
Phospholipid Infusions
IV PC consists of an infusion with a concentrated mixture of phospholipids especially phosphatidylcholine, the main component of our cell membrane. Phosphatidylcholine is a special fat molecule responsible for cell membrane structure, synthesis and repair. It is also a precursor to acetylcholine which is an essential and important brain neurotransmitter acting as a key player in memory. Every cell in the body is encapsulated by a double layer of restorative phospholipids. Age, toxicity, stress, degenerative changes and disease decrease the abundance of phosphatidylcholine in our cell membranes. Damaged cell membranes threaten the cells’ mitochondria, generating less ATP for cellular energy.
Physical Exams
PRP Therapy
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is an excellent natural, bio-identical option for hair loss and skin rejuvenation. This treatment involves drawing your blood, spinning it down in a special centrifuge to create a plasma that is rich in platelets and growth factors. These induce collagen to form within the dermis and epidermis stimulating healing, repair and anti-aging. On the face, it is helpful in reducing acne scars, hyperpigmentation, damaged skin and fine lines. We have seen particular success in treating androgenetic alopecia. Normally the hair goes through an anagen growth phase, a catagen resting phase and a telogen shedding phase. In androgenetic alopecia, the anagen phase is shortened, meaning growth is stifled; and the telogen phase is extended creating a longer hair loss phase. By injecting your very own growth factors into your scalp, it stimulates growth and decreases hair loss.
PEMF Therapy
On a molecular level, PEMFs restore the healthy charge of the cell membrane. improving oxygenation, ATP production, movement of nutrients and waste across the cell membrane, circulation & decreasing edema & pain. Healing is improved and anyone can benefit! PEMF therapy is used by astronauts to protect against developing osteoporosis in space.
