About Primary Care (Family Care)
At Grace and Gratitude Wellness, we go beyond traditional healthcare to provide a personalized, root-cause approach to your well-being. Our primary care process is designed to uncover the underlying factors affecting your health and create a tailored plan to help you thrive.
Your journey starts with an in-depth consultation, where we take the time to understand your medical history, symptoms, and health goals.

Our commitment doesn’t end with a single visit—we provide ongoing support, progress evaluations, and wellness maintenance to ensure long-term health and vitality. At every step, we partner with you to achieve sustainable wellness.

- Traditional labs, imaging, and diagnostic tests
- Advanced testing options like comprehensive stool analysis, hormone panels, micronutrient assessments, heavy metal screening, or food sensitivity tests
Each diagnostic tool is chosen based on your specific symptoms and health goals.
