Persistent low energy
When your energy has been flat for months, the answer usually lives in labs — not in another cup of coffee.
Overview
Low energy is the single most common reason patients book with us. It rarely has one cause: thyroid, testosterone, iron, B12, sleep, and metabolic health all feed into it. The point of the first visit is to sort out which of those is actually driving your symptoms.
What we look at
Signals, not guesses.
- Full thyroid panel (TSH, Free T4, Free T3)
- Total + free testosterone (men and women)
- Ferritin, iron studies, B12, folate, vitamin D
- Fasting insulin, HbA1c, comprehensive metabolic
