Complex Disease Diagnosis

When your symptoms do not have an easy answer, you need a provider who takes the time to look. We treat your symptoms as real signals worth investigating.

Finding Answers When Symptoms Do Not Add Up

Some health problems do not point to one clear cause. Fatigue, weight changes, pain or shortness of breath can come from many places. Subtle symptoms are often missed in rushed appointments, so we pace our visits to give your provider time to listen, examine you carefully and think through the full picture.

Testing starts in our own office. We can draw labs, run an EKG or do a breathing test on-site, so the work-up moves faster. When a specialist is needed, we refer you and keep all the findings connected in one chart.

How We Work Toward a Diagnosis

Each step builds on the last until there is a clear answer.

A Careful History

Your provider asks about when your symptoms started, what makes them better or worse, and your medications and family history. This is often where the most useful clues come from.

Thorough Exam

A careful physical exam can point to the right tests and rule out others. Your provider knows what normal looks like for you.

In-House Testing

We draw labs in our office, including full thyroid and hormone panels when needed, and can run EKGs and pulmonary function tests on-site.

Specialist Input

If the answer lies outside primary care, we refer you to a trusted specialist and share your results. Our practice also includes psychiatry when mental health is part of the picture.

A Plan You Understand

Once we have answers, your provider explains what is happening, what we are doing about it and what to watch for between visits.

What to Expect

Book a Visit

Call (727) 322-4227. Bring past records, test results and a list of your medications.

Evaluation and Testing

Your provider takes a full history, examines you and orders the first round of tests.

Review Results

We go over every result with you and decide if more testing or a specialist is needed.

Your Treatment Plan

Once there is a diagnosis, we start treatment and set up follow-up.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if my tests keep coming back normal?

Normal results do not mean your symptoms are not real. Your provider looks at the whole picture, including your history and exam, and may order more specific tests, like a full thyroid panel instead of a single value.

What should I bring to my first visit?

Bring any past test results, records from other doctors and a full list of your medications and supplements. A short timeline of your symptoms also helps.

What tests can you do in your office?

We draw labs on-site and can run EKGs and pulmonary function tests in our office. If you need imaging or specialty testing, we refer you.

Will I need to see a specialist?

Sometimes. Many work-ups can start and finish in primary care, but when a specialist is needed, we refer you to a trusted one and stay involved.

Do you take insurance for diagnostic visits?

Yes. Diagnostic visits are billed like other office visits, and we take most major plans. Our front desk can verify your coverage, in English or Spanish.
