Telemedicine & Virtual Consultations
Distance shouldn't stand between you and the care you need. We offer secure virtual visits alongside our in-person care, for patients across the country and beyond.
Is Telemedicine for You?
Some patients aren't able to drive to our office, don't have a schedule that allows an in-person visit, or live in another part of the country. We don't think distance should stand between you and the care you need.
For patient convenience, we offer both in-person visits and virtual health consultations, also called “telemedicine.” We currently see patients across the country and even outside the United States. Contact us with any questions — we're here to help.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I communicate with the doctor?
Communication happens by phone or through the secure video platform built into our HIPAA-compliant electronic health record (EHR) system — not consumer apps like Skype or FaceTime — so your health information stays private and protected.
What if I need labs or natural medicine products?
We work with labs across the United States, and many tests can be run at home using take-home kits we provide. Any natural medicine products ship directly to your door — or wherever you're staying, including a hotel while traveling.
What if I want to fly out for one of my visits?
We're located about 50 minutes north of Denver International Airport, just off I-25, with plenty of lodging options nearby in Longmont or Loveland.
More About Virtual Health Consultations
Our HIPAA-protected EHR video platform lets us do more than talk — we can visually examine your concerns, share lab results, and walk through diagrams to help you understand your condition. We use secure screen sharing so you can see exactly what we're looking at.
Many patients choose telemedicine when they can't make it into the office — whether they're out of state, traveling, or working around a scheduling conflict. It's also helped us stay connected with patients and avoid gaps in care during natural disasters and other emergencies.
Many of the labs we use offer take-home versions of their tests that are just as accurate as what we'd run in-office. For diagnostics like bloodwork, we're networked with laboratories nationwide, so convenient access is available in nearly any state.
Telemedicine appointments are treated the same as our in-office visits. Your first appointment typically runs 60–90 minutes depending on the complexity of your case, with follow-ups from 15–60 minutes. Please have any old labs ready in advance, and a written timeline of your symptoms or a food diary can help us too.

Did you know that our Doctors have specialized training in dealing with gynecological disorders. We perform a comprehensive annual examination, which includes: a complete health history, physical examination, breast exam, pelvic exam, pap smear and blood tests. In addition to the examination, you will have a report of findings appointment where the doctor will review all of the findings from your exam; any actions needed and continued preventative measures you can take to stay healthy. We promise no postcards in the mail or voice messages that your pap was “normal”.
Additionally, in the event that you have any abnormalities in your exam and testing, we offer safe and effective natural treatments to deal with cervical cellular changes, yeast or other vaginal infections, uterine fibroids and benign ovarian cysts.
Breast, Cervical and Ovarian Cancer
Routine screening tests and exams are the key to early detection of most common cancers. In your annual well female exam, you will receive a thorough breast exam and education on the best way to perform your own self-exam. A breast self-exam combined with a doctor’s exam yearly remains the most effective way to identify lumps that may be cancerous. The pap test we perform is the most advanced available and not only does it evaluate for cellular changes of the cervix, but will screen for the HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) which is the major cause of cervical cancer. Early detection of the virus allows it to be treated and prevent cancerous cellular changes that may occur down the road.
In addition to your exam, the Doctors and you will discuss your current and past medical history. If indicated, we can perform functional testing which may include advanced genetic testing that include tumor markers, such as CA 125 which identifies ovarian cancer, or methylation and detoxification deficiencies. The genetic defects or SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphism), if left untreated, could lead to cancer. See the section related to epigenetic modulation for more info.
Did you know that there is a blood test available that will screen for cancer anywhere in the body? Believe it or not, this test is not new and has been around for some time. Why it is not more commonly known or used by most medical doctors, we don’t know.
In our office we offer the AMAS test. When cancer cells develop in the body they have an antigen called malignin on their cell walls. This is true for any type of cancer. When these cells are detected by your immune system, an antibody called Anti-malignin antibody is produced to fight off these cells. The AMAS test measures the levels of this antibody in your blood. The AMAS test is very sensitive to this antibody, which means if elevated levels are present the test is very accurate at detecting them. The test however will not tell us the location or type of cancer it is detecting. The test often detects cancers far before the outward signs would be detected on any other testing.
The AMAS test is an excellent general screen to rule our any cancerous processes. Even if your test were to be elevated, further screening to locate the problem will begin sooner than with any other method, and we all know that early detection is the key to cancer survival.
