SPECIALTY LABS
Functional lab testing can be a great way to better assess the underlying contributors to symptom presentation. Below is a list of some of the functional medicine labs offered by Julie Figgins ND. Sometimes they can be processed by insurance as an out-of-network lab benefit. Generally, these are an out-of-pocket expense and the fees listed go directly to the lab. They are not always necessary, but they are a great asset to thorough functional assessment.
