What should I expect at my first appointment at The Lamkin Clinic?

Your first appointment at The Lamkin Clinic is a comprehensive consultation — not a rushed visit. Dr. Lamkin reviews your full health history, current symptoms, previous labs and treatments, and develops an initial diagnostic plan. Initial consultations are 45 minutes or longer.

Does The Lamkin Clinic accept insurance?

The Lamkin Clinic is a cash-based practice and does not bill insurance directly. This allows Dr. Lamkin to spend more time with each patient and order the advanced testing that root-cause medicine requires. Documentation can be provided for HSA/FSA reimbursement.

What kind of lab testing does The Lamkin Clinic use for new patients?

The Lamkin Clinic uses comprehensive advanced lab panels beyond standard testing — including inflammatory markers, full hormone panels, micronutrient analysis, gut health assessments, heavy metal testing, and genetic markers when relevant. Testing is personalized to each patient's symptoms and history.

How is The Lamkin Clinic different from a conventional doctor?

The Lamkin Clinic practices functional medicine — a root-cause approach that investigates why you're sick, not just what to prescribe for your symptoms. Appointments are not rushed, treatment plans are personalized, and the goal is lasting health improvement rather than lifelong symptom management.

What to expect

If you’ve spent years being told your labs are normal while you still don’t feel right you’re exactly who The Lamkin Clinic was built for. As a new patient, you won’t get a rushed 10-minute appointment. You’ll get time, attention, and a physician who actually investigates why you’re not well.

Dr. Brian Lamkin, DO uses advanced lab testing, comprehensive health histories, and root-cause protocols to build a personalized treatment plan designed specifically for you not a template.

The Lamkin Clinic’s 8 simple Steps to optimal health…

Nutrition: Micronutrient deficiencies are common and predispose to problems with energy, metabolism, and immune function. We’ll help you identify and correct any micro-nutrient deficiencies that may exist through clinical evaluation and objective lab testing.

Lifestyle: Chronic stress and lack of deep restorative sleep can cause a whole host of problems with fatigue, poor mood, and lack of mental focus (just to name a few). We’ll help you identify and correct lifestyle factors and neurotransmitter imbalances that may play a role in preventing restorative sleep.

Inflammation: Through specific lab testing, we’ll Identify and reduce systemic and vascular inflammation that interfere with normal physiology and lead to health problems including risk for heart disease and cancer.

Detoxification: Thousands of new toxins are introduced into our environment each year. The accumulation over a lifetime can take its toll on health. Through specific lab testing we’ll help you Identify and reduce heavy metal and toxic element load. If testing indicates significant exposure, a rotating detox protocol will be initiated until urine toxic clearance reduces to baseline.

Immunity: Individuals who are ill recurrently, have trouble getting over general colds and flu’s, have asthma and/or allergies, or autoimmune disease have an imbalance in immune system function.

Gut Health: Imbalances within the gastrointestinal tract including Gut dysbiosis (abnormal balance of healthy bacteria), increased permeability of the GI tract (“Leaky Gut Syndrome”), and/or food allergies will need to be corrected.

Hormonal balance: Hormonal decline and/or deficiencies begin as early as the thirties and may contribute to weight gain, muscle loss, low libido, and mood/cognitive changes. Correction of imbalance can help restore youthful vigor and physique.

Fitness: If some form of exercise (i.e. cardio, strength training, Yoga, Stretching etc…) is not a part of daily routine, recommendations and/or referrals will be made to refer you to a specialist/health coach/ trainer to get you started.
