GETTING STARTED
Welcome to my practice! I am excited to work with you on your health journey. Please read the following carefully as it answers many common questions and will help you optimize our experience together.
SET UP
To make our communication as safe and efficient as possible, I use an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) called Practice Better as the hub for all scheduling (including virtual appointment links), housing health records, and messaging.
- Please whitelist Practice Better with your email provider so you do not miss messages
- If you are reading this, you have registered with me, and likely have an appointment scheduled. First, please ACTIVATE your account if you have not already done so. This does not happen automatically.
- Confirm your email address and create your password if not already established
- Download the Practice Better app and allow notifications
- Log in either via the app, or by clicking on the “Client Portal” button on my website (https://holcarenutritionhbr.practicebetter.io/#/signin )
- Select the Forms and Waivers option on the left menu and make sure you have completed all forms that have been activated for you
- Check the Basic Information section, and complete as needed.
- Add a payment option under Billing and Payments.
- All messaging should be done through Practice Better, using the chat function, which looks like a text message icon. I do not check emails daily, and they are not secure, so this is not a good option for our communication.
INITIAL APPOINTMENT
- Please make sure all forms are completed prior to our appointment, or we will lose valuable time during our consultation.
- Your link for our virtual visit will be in the appointment area of the portal. You will get an email and text confirmation as well.
- During our appointment we will do a thorough review of your (or your child’s) current and past health history, pertinent prior lab work, and any other appropriate factors.
- We will develop a plan together that may include any combination of Functional or conventional lab work, nutritional interventions, supplement/herb/nutraceuticals and lifestyle/environmental modifications as appropriate. After our appointment (usually within 48 hours) you will receive a PROTOCOL that outlines our plan.
- If I suggest Functional lab testing, I will order it through either RUPA or EVEXIA labs. You will receive an email from the lab to complete the order so kits can be shipped to you for specimen collection. Please look for this email from the lab, not from me.
- Supplement recommendations will be added to your cart in my FULLSCRIPT formulary, and will correlate with our plan. You will receive an email from Fullscript to let you know there are items in your cart, and to complete the order. Please do not purchase supplements from Amazon.
If you have additional questions, please message me through the chat, I am looking forward to our time together.
Warmly,
Vicki Kobliner MSRDN
