Frequently Asked Questions
-
Why Programs?Programs help care for clients in the way they deserve with transparent pricing, more one-on-one time and ongoing regular support so that we can address your health concerns from its root. We find that our clients achieve their goals faster when they don’t feel alone, can get their questions answered sooner and we can get feedback to see what is or is not working. Ongoing encouragement helps reduce dropout and emphasizes the WHY regarding what matters to one’s health.
-
How does telemedicine work?Telemedicine (virtual visit) allows for more convenient access to quality care. Rose Medical is designed to facilitate virtual consultations. There’s no need for expensive software on your end, as long as you’re comfortable with using the internet and communicating online. Once your appointment is confirmed, you’ll receive a link via email. You’ll also be able to access this link in your secure patient portal. Shortly before the visit start time, please join your appointment by clicking the link (make sure your audio and video are enabled). Lab orders, lab results, supplement recommendations, actionable plans and handouts will all be readily available from your secure patient portal. Functional medicine lab kits and supplements can be shipped directly to your house, and prescriptions can be sent to your local pharmacy. You’ll have direct access to our team through portal messaging between visits. Initial consultations are done via secure video, and follow ups can be by phone, email or secure video.
-
Do I need a referral from my primary care provider?No, you do not need a referral. Rose Medical is a consultative Integrative and Functional Medicine practice. We do not provide primary care services. We do ask that all clients have a primary care provider for basic conventional health maintenance.
-
Do you take insurance? Do you accept Medicare?Because of the time and focus we spend on your health and the limitation of medical insurance reimbursement, we do not accept any insurance plans. Many clients can still use their HSA/FSA benefits towards some of our services. We accept cash and all major credit cards.
-
Can you tell me more about Dry Needling?Dry Needling is a therapeutic approach to pain that targets pain at the source using the neuromuscular anatomy as a guide. We incorporate acupuncture needles and electro-stimulation but this is NOT acupuncture.
-
How is this different from acupuncture?Acupuncture is one of the many modalities used in the practice of Chinese Medicine. Although we use acupuncture needles, we are approaching the patient using their neuromuscular anatomy rather than meridian maps.
-
What should I expect from a dry needling treatment?If you have never experienced acupuncture, you will be pleasantly surprised by how little you feel the needle. If you have ever experienced painful dry needling, I can assure you that I am committed to gentle needling with similar results.
