2. Does insurance cover treatment?

Insurance benefits differ by type of insurance. Most private insurance policies provide partial or complete coverage; PPO's usually provide limited coverage; and most HMO's do not provide coverage without a referral from a primary care doctor. Potential patients can inquiry about benefits through their insurance carrier's predetermination process. We have prepared an Insurance Information letter to help with the predetermination process.

3. Do we have to come to Warrenville, IL for evaluation?

Several times a year the medical team travels to Northern California, Southern California, Maryland, Michigan(Coming soon) and Florida(Coming soon) to provide outreach services. Click here to see the schedule.

4. Do I need to stop taking my medications to be treated at the Pfeiffer Medical Center?

Nutrient therapy works best in conjunction with any current prescription medication treatment; therefore, we recommend patients continue taking their prescription medication. However, in several months as biochemical imbalances are treated many patients find their medications may be reduced or eliminated under the supervision of their prescribing physician.

5. How soon can I expect a return phone call if I have a question?

We make every effort to return phone calls in 36 – 48 hours. For less urgent questions we attempt to have a patient's primary care nurse return the call for improved continuity of care.

6. Do I have to eat a perfectly healthy diet if I take the nutrient program?

A nutritious diet certainly adds to the effectiveness of the nutrient program; however, it is not required. Diet may be discussed during the appointment as part of the medical evaluation.
