To ensure you get the most out of your initial consultation with Dr. Jennie Ding, we'll send you a set of intake forms prior to your appointment. It's important to complete these forms as thoroughly as possible before your visit. The information you provide will help Dr. Ding understand your current health conditions, lifestyle, and personal goals. This preparation allows more time during the consultation to focus on reviewing your specific needs and developing a tailored health plan that aligns with your objectives. Filling out the forms in advance ensures that your session with Dr. Ding is efficient and productive, setting a strong foundation for your journey in the Blood Sugar Defense Program.

Dr. Jennie Ding may recommend you to do intermittent blood tests for cholesterol, blood sugars, and other tests as needed. However, because we serve clients from many locations, Dr. Ding will not be ordering these tests directly. Instead, she will ask you to follow up with your primary care provider to complete these tests. This is another way that we are helping to ensure that your primary care provider is involved in your care every step of the way.

No. Although Dr. Ding is a physician, she will only focus on lifestyle factors around your health and will not prescribe medications or order investigations. She may advise you to follow up with your primary care provider for medication changes and investigations if needed.
