Which integrative medicine treatment is right for me?

Everyone can benefit from integrative medicine with the Katy Wellness Center & Family Physicians experts. To determine which wellness plan is best for your personalized needs, a provider weighs you and evaluates your body mass index (BMI), pulse, blood pressure, and other vital signs.

They also complete a physical exam to assess your eyes, nose, throat, breathing, heartbeat, and more. Your specialist may suggest urine testing, blood tests, asthma or allergy testing, bone density screenings, heart-function tests, or additional diagnostic tests before determining which integrative medicine treatment, if any, is best.
