"I finally found someone who listens and actually investigates. Every other provider just wanted to throw more meds at me. Canybec ordered labs nobody else thought to check."

The 47-Marker Panel

What standard panels miss

The Pattern

This is what we see every week

1

Patient tries 2-3 antidepressants

"Nothing is working. Maybe I need a different medication."

2

Labs come back "normal"

Ferritin 18 ng/mL. TSH 3.2. B12 287. All "in range."

3

We look at optimal ranges

Those levels explain everything. The meds never had a chance.

4

Targeted protocol + existing meds = breakthrough

"Why didn't anyone check this before?"

0%

of "treatment-resistant" cases have missed medical causes

Common Questions

You're probably wondering...

Why didn't my doctor order these labs?

Most doctors order 'standard panels' designed to catch severe illness, not optimize brain function. We test for optimal ranges—where your brain actually works best. Insurance-driven panels miss up to 40% of medical causes behind psychiatric symptoms.

What if my labs come back normal?

If your labs are truly optimal (not just 'in range'), you'll have peace of mind knowing medical causes have been thoroughly ruled out. We'll discuss next steps for your psychiatric care with that clarity.

Do you accept insurance?

Yes, we accept most major insurance plans in Arizona and California. Lab work is typically covered separately through your insurance. We'll verify your benefits before your appointment.

Can I do this via telehealth?

Absolutely. Most of our consultations are via telehealth. You'll get lab orders sent to a location near you, then we review results together virtually.
