Answers to a Few Frequently Asked Questions
Do you take my insurance?
Our “Better Me” Functional Medicine All-In-One program is designed to provide proactive, comprehensive care that—aside from any routine lab work & radiology needs, your insurance simply does not cover. Traditional insurance models often promote a “wait and see” approach, delaying necessary treatment until conditions worsen significantly.
This “limited by medical necessity” approach can result in extended suffering and even hospitalization. By not accepting insurance constraints, we avoid these delays, allowing us to partner with you immediately to begin a thorough evaluation and run necessary lab work upfront. This enables us to focus on identifying the root causes of your health issues, bringing a balanced view and tailored set of strategies that supports your recovery and long-term well-being.
How soon can I get an appointment?
We accept only six new patients per month into our “Better Me” program, reflecting the complexity of cases we handle and the intensive workload required for comprehensive testing. To begin, we offer a free 15-minute Discovery call with our experienced program coordinator and practice manager, Cynthia. This call helps us understand your health needs and determine if our program is a good fit for you. You can schedule this call here.
If it’s a match, you’ll be invited to an initial meet-and-greet with Dr. Pucci, held weekly by invitation for those who are ready to commit fully to their health journey.
How often do I get to see the doctor?
The “Better Me” program is structured to provide continuous and proactive care. Over the course of six months, you’ll have multiple opportunities for in-depth, one-on-one sessions with Dr. Pucci, each lasting 60-75 minutes. These sessions are scheduled at critical junctures to effectively manage any crises and guide you toward optimal health, both physically and emotionally. In addition to these regular sessions, you’ll also undergo a comprehensive in-person exam based on functional neurology principles and regular reviews of lab results to track your progress and adjust your care plan as needed.

What tests are included in the program?
Our “Better Me” Functional Medicine All-In-One program is tailored to each individual’s needs, which means we carefully select the functional lab tests & send outs that will provide the most relevant clinical data for your particular case. With hundreds, if not thousands, of potential tests available, our goal is to choose those that offer the most useful information for developing an effective action plan.
For most patients, certain key areas typically need to be addressed, which is where a functional medicine approach excels—we look at multiple systems rather than focusing on a single area of dysfunction. For instance, a stool analysis led by one of our preferred labs, Genova, is commonly included in our program to evaluate the contents of your gut microbiome. This test can reveal important insights into nutrient absorption, digestive health, and potential inflammation.
Another test we frequently run is a nutrient evaluation, which examines the various components essential to how your body heals, grows, and repairs itself. This test helps us understand what nutrients are needed to produce ATP (the body’s energy currency), remove toxins, and overcome oxidative damage. By focusing on these key areas & more, we can develop a more targeted and effective approach to your health.
