At the offices of Dr. Christopher Calapai, located in Garden City and Plainview, NY, we offer blood testing to provide our patients with insight into their bodies and overall health. This testing process also incorporates hormone testing and mineral testing, and after gathering the necessary data, we’ll receive results that provide us with a baseline so that we can move forward with the treatment plan that helps address your symptoms, correct deficiencies, and improve your health and quality of life.

What Is Blood Testing?

Blood testing is a simple process that can help diagnose any illnesses you’re dealing with that are currently unknown to you, determine the root cause of certain negative health symptoms, and provide useful information to help you better monitor and support your health. This testing process can meet the needs of patients with significant health issues and those who simply want to take steps to invest in overall health and well-being.

The blood testing process includes CBC, comprehensive metabolic panel, liver function, cardiac markers, and cholesterol markers, including the breakdown of the three different types of HDL and LDL. Patients who undergo the testing process will also get results in the form of a full workup that provides more information about the following:

Alpha lipoic acid
Proteins
A full thyroid panel
Antibodies
DHEA
Testosterone
IGF-1
Female hormones
PSA for men
Hemoglobin A1C
Celiac testing

Food allergy testing
Liver function panel
High-sensitive reactive protein
Homocysteine
Heavy metals
Iron profile
Cortisol
Arthritis panel
Autoimmune markers
Urine test for heavy metals

A Comprehensive Approach to Health

When you seek treatment at the offices of Dr. Christopher Calapai, you’ll receive treatment from Doctor Calapai himself, who is board-certified in family and anti-aging medicine. He’s also certified in chelation and has a fellowship certification in stem cells. Doctor Calapai takes a comprehensive approach to illness and will consider all your symptoms and blood test results to proceed with an accurate diagnosis and design an effective treatment plan. He understands that health education is a critical aspect of the doctor-patient relationship. He strives to teach patients how to better understand their health and their bodies so that after their treatment, they can walk away with more information about their bodies than before seeking treatment. That way, they can feel confident about their health and make informed decisions on their wellness journey.

Evaluating Your Symptoms and Results

At the offices of Dr. Christopher Calapai, we believe that there are far more causes of illness and symptoms than meets the eye. Our goal is to initiate a treatment process that evaluates these causes to provide an accurate diagnosis so we can move forward with a customized treatment plan to improve health and quality of life and achieve exceptional post-treatment results.

What Are the Treatment Benefits?

Dr. Calapai created the comprehensive medical and nutritional approach over 35 years ago. This approach provides patients with an understanding of how their bodies work in cooperation with vitamins, minerals, and hormones. All of these aspects work together to feed and stimulate organ function. It is the most effective precursor to a comprehensive workup that can address conditions and patient symptoms and complaints. Some treatment benefits include the following:

Concrete data about your health
The ability to find out the root cause of your illness or symptoms
Invaluable information about your health and body for an accurate treatment plan
You’ll be informed about your body and health, which will increase confidence and awareness
A completely customized treatment process

Hormone Testing

The hormone system is delicate; any imbalance can affect other bodily systems and organs. One of the benefits of blood testing is that it can give us more information about your hormone levels and any deficiencies, so we can then design a treatment plan to supplement those hormones that the body lacks to alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life. Hormone testing can meet the needs of men and women suffering from the symptoms of a hormone deficiency. These symptoms can negatively interfere with quality of life and impact physical, mental, emotional, and sexual health. Once we determine your deficiency after hormone testing, we can use bioidentical hormones to resolve the imbalance and promote hormonal harmony.

Mineral Testing

Part of the blood testing process includes mineral testing. Mineral testing focuses on your body’s mineral levels to determine if you’re suffering from any deficiencies, which, when treated, will help improve your overall health and well-being. Mineral testing can also help determine whether you’re harboring any harmful substances in your system so that we can take the necessary steps to detox your body and improve your health.

What Can I Expect From My Testing Process and Results?

The tests required during this process depend on your health history, physical exam results, and primary symptoms and concerns. When we gather all the necessary information, we can better understand the causes of any medical problems and move forward with an effective treatment plan to resolve them. The blood testing process is simple and minimally invasive. Once we gather your results after completing the testing process, we can discuss them with you and move forward with an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.

Am I a Good Candidate?

If you want to learn more about your body and current health and get results so you can move forward with a treatment plan that will help you become a healthier version of yourself, you may be the perfect candidate for blood testing. Almost everyone qualifies for this treatment because it doesn’t introduce anything into the body but instead requires a small blood sample that will provide a wealth of information about your system.

Take Charge of Your Health

If you want to learn more about your health, find out the root cause of your symptoms or illness, and move forward with a treatment that will improve your health and quality of life, you may benefit from blood testing. This process can provide invaluable insight and information about your body and your health so that you can invest in a treatment plan that will help you revitalize and rejuvenate your system.

My personal experience as a patient of Dr. Calopai, is that he provides a more comprehensive medical evaluation than the average doctor. He is very knowledgeable with respect to assessing my health through a combination of medical examination, review of the history I provide to him, ordering a wide range of tests that include a more complete assessment of my diet and lifestyle, evaluation of heavy metal toxicity, investigation into how various test results are related to my activities and diet, what changes I can make to improve upon test findings, answering queries about current concerns and health issues and providing cutting edge therapeutic, nutritional as well as prophylactic treatment alternatives.
