Functional Lab & Diagnostic Testing
Traditional lab testing is very limited and is only testing for markers that say you already have a disease that can then be "managed" with medications. They compare your test results with all of those who came into their clinic that year and give you a high or a low if you fall into the top or bottom 2.5%. In other words, they are comparing you to sick people, and if you aren't sick enough, they send you away telling you there is nothing wrong with you....yet.
Functional Lab Testing with Dr. Filippini will be an extensive panel and will be interpreted much differently. Dr. Filippini will compare your results with those of a healthy person. If your markers are outside those of a normal and healthy range, they are flagged. Interpreting your results from a functional point of view is what allows Dr. Filippini to determine what systems in your body aren't functioning properly and allows him to make appropriate recommendations before medications are even needed! If you have already received a diagnosis and are on medications, functional lab panels will help determine the cause, what other organs or tissues are being affected and what will be necessary to allow you to reverse your condition and get off of your dangerous medications.
