Comprehensive Consultation Package
Patients often seek Dr. Kenyon’s specialized services when a complex constellation of symptoms has seemingly puzzled other physicians. She conducts a thorough diagnostic interview to give all her patients the clearest possible picture of their condition, then draws on decades of hands-on experience to formulate an effective, personalized treatment plan.
An initial “Comprehensive Consultation Package” often gives clients the best of what they seek in a two-visit timeframe: a clearer picture of their medical tests and diagnoses, better understanding of what other caregivers have been telling them, and a roadmap to follow going forward toward better health.
This package includes a comprehensive (1-2 hours) initial visit, a complete review of records, lab or X-ray data, followed by a ½ to one hour summary visit accompanied by a brief written report for you, the client. At the concluding summary visit, we will talk about whether or not an ongoing wellness coaching oversight plan is right for you to choose going forward.
Autoimmune Disease Expertise
Autoimmune conditions are those in which your body’s inflammatory defense system attacks healthy cells instead of fighting off the harmful ones. They include conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, lupus, Grave’s disease, and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. These disorders have far-reaching effects, but with the help of experts like Dr. Kenyon, they can be understood and managed.
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis affects 1.5 million Americans, and is most commonly associated with joint swelling, stiffness and pain, especially in the morning. Dr. Kenyon is a rheumatology specialist with extensive experience in managing arthritic symptoms and reducing the long-term damage to joints, tissues, and organs that this disorder can cause if untreated.
Lupus
Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease that may cause inflammation in many parts of your body, including your joints, skin, kidneys, blood cells, brain, heart, and lungs. Symptoms can range from mild to severe, and may worsen during “flare-ups.” Determining how to reduce flare-ups and manage symptoms is a highly individual process, which Dr. Kenyon helps her patients to navigate.
Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a difficult and unusual condition, with no definitive cause or cure. It presents as generalized and debilitating pain, exhaustion, and accompanying mental distress. Dr. Kenyon is familiar with the various medical and lifestyle treatments that can be combined to best treat fibromyalgia. Her medical expertise and coaching techniques help patients manage these painful symptoms.
Chronic Pain
Pain becomes chronic when it persists for extended periods, often many months or years. Chronic pain is frequently associated with underlying medical conditions or acute injuries, and affect every area of your life — even getting out of bed in the morning can be a struggle. Dr. Kenyon will help you manage and treat chronic pain, so you can live your life with minimal impact.
