One provider who knows your history, has time to listen, and stays with you as your health changes — in Denver, or by telehealth across Colorado and Connecticut. Care here is trauma-informed and LGBTQ+ welcoming — you are the expert on your own body, and nothing moves forward without your say.
That's the average primary care visit. It's not enough, and you already know it.
You repeat your whole history to someone who's never met you. The visit ends before you get to what actually worries you. Your symptoms get treated one at a time, by people who never talk. You leave with a prescription, but not with answers.
None of this means you're a difficult patient. It means the system was built for speed — not for knowing you.
Three things change when a provider actually has room to know you.
Unhurried visits with room to ask every question — and be heard on all of it.
A small panel, by design. The same provider every visit, connecting the dots over time.
Same- and next-day appointments, secure messaging, and care that's proactive.
Not a portal notification saying “normal.” I read your results in full — trends across time, not isolated snapshots — then walk you through what I see, what I'm watching, and what I'm still unsure about.
Your A1c and ApoB are where I want them and holding — that's real cardiometabolic progress, not a fluke. Inflammation is trending down but isn't there yet, and vitamin D is low enough to be contributing to how tired you've been. Those two are what we'll work on this year.
The same review structure is used across hormone panels, thyroid function, gut testing, and metabolic health.
I'd rather know a few hundred people deeply than thousands barely at all.
I spent years in a system that gave me fifteen minutes and told me to move faster. I watched patients fall through the cracks — not because anyone stopped caring, but because no one had time to see the whole person.
So I built something different. I keep my panel deliberately small, because I'd rather know a few hundred patients deeply than thousands barely at all.

All of it under one provider — no referrals bouncing you between offices, no piecing your own care together.
Rather than paying for individual office visits, membership supports an ongoing relationship — appointments scheduled as clinically appropriate, with proactive follow-up and support built in.
It doesn't replace your insurance. Labs, imaging, prescriptions, referrals, and medically necessary services still go through your plan whenever appropriate.
Same provider, same medicine either way. The difference is whether you pay per visit or for the relationship.
Same provider either way — Natalie Ball, FNP-BC.
Complex or unexplained symptoms usually begin with a functional medicine evaluation first. See how care works →
Most patients don't need advanced functional medicine on day one. When deeper investigation becomes appropriate, we build on the relationship we've already established — rather than starting over with someone new. There's no wrong order to do it in.
Many patients begin with a focused functional program — a Root Cause Review, Reset, or Rebuild — to get to the bottom of stubborn symptoms. Once they're feeling like themselves again, membership keeps that progress going with steady, ongoing care.
If you're already a member and something needs a closer look, I can take the investigation deeper — a Root Cause Review or a full functional program — without you ever leaving the relationship you've built.
Not sure which to start with? That's exactly what the free intro call is for.
One relationship, one flat fee. Billing starts at intake — your membership billing, whether monthly, quarterly, or annual, begins on the date of your Comprehensive Intake Visit, not before. That visit is included in your first billing cycle, with no separate charge. HSA/FSA-eligible with itemized receipts.
A one-time $150 onboarding fee applies when you join — waived if you enroll within 14 days of a visit with me.

Insurance is accepted for eligible primary care visits — see Payment & Insurance for how that works alongside membership.
Yes — and most members do. Your membership covers your care and access with me. Everything outside of that still runs through your health plan: labs, imaging, medications, specialists, and hospital care. Membership sits alongside your insurance rather than replacing it.
Anything billed by someone other than me. Your insurance is still used for labs, imaging, medications, specialists, and hospital care — and medications are billed at pharmacy cost. Functional medicine programs are also separate.
No. Many members never need advanced testing. Functional medicine is simply there if deeper investigation becomes appropriate — it's an option, not an expectation.
No. Membership is a flat monthly fee for an ongoing care relationship — it isn't a health plan and doesn't replace one. You'll still want insurance for labs, imaging, specialists, and hospital care.
Not quite. Membership isn't a premium tier bolted onto ordinary care — it's a primary care model built around continuity, with the time and access that ordinary scheduling doesn't allow for. Your care here is also fully integrative: hormones, metabolic, and root-cause medicine are part of it, not referred out.
Yes. All care is currently delivered by telehealth across Colorado and Connecticut. In-person visits in Denver are resuming soon.
Because of what it makes possible. Paying for the relationship rather than each encounter is what allows appointments to run as long as they need to, messaging between visits, and proactive follow-up instead of waiting for the next problem. The care itself is fully integrative — hormones, metabolic, and root-cause work are part of it, not referred out.
No — functional medicine programs are separate and structured. If deeper investigation becomes appropriate, we can talk about it whenever you're ready.
Absolutely. Patients move between individual visits, membership, and functional medicine as their needs change. I'll help you land on whatever makes the most sense at the time.
No. Cancel anytime with 30 days’ notice. Billing starts at intake — your membership billing, whether monthly, quarterly, or annual, begins on the date of your Comprehensive Intake Visit, not before. That visit is included in your first billing cycle, with no separate charge. A one-time $150 onboarding fee applies when you join, and is waived if you enroll within 14 days of a visit with me.
