evaluation entail?

sheet.
Q) I would like to schedule an
appointment. How do I proceed?
● Dr. Jean Claude
Lapraz comes from
Paris, France to the USA 3-4 times per year to see patients at EIMC. To
schedule an appointment with him, please call 208-478-8400 (toll free
877-470-8400) or e-mail belen@eimcenter.com.

you.
● Dr.
Laramie Wheeler is currently seeing patients at Blackfoot Medical Center
every
Monday and Thursday. Please call 208-785-2600 to schedule your
appointment. The specialized exam required for an endobiogenic
evaluation takes additional time. When you call Blackfoot Medical,
please mention that you are an Endobiogénie patient, and you
will be
given a longer appointment. You also need to call EIMC 2 weeks before
your appointment with Dr.
Wheeler to arrange your LabCorp draw and to pay for your endobiogenic
evaluation. Once your labs are received, your
Biology of Functions will be
processed and the results sent to Dr. Wheeler. After your exam, our
Endobiogénie team will form a treatment plan for you. You will
have a
10-20 minute follow-up
appointment with Annette Davis, C.N.
(at EIMC or by phone) to review
your Biology of Functions
results, treatment plan and answer
any questions you may have.

is currently on a leave of absence. An update will be posted when she
returns.
Q) I am not able to travel to the
clinic at this time. Can I have a
distance
evaluation?
A) Yes. While a face-to-face visit is
preferred, we
understand that
travel is not always medically feasible. Before your
labs are drawn, you will be required to sign a declaration

NEW!
Women's Annual (Preventive Health) Exams
Routine gynecological care is essential for all women.
Women's preventive health exams are now offered by our female providers
in a quiet, comfortable, relaxed environment.
It is important for patients to
understand that although Endobiogénie and Biology of Functions
have been studied closely and extensively in France, they have not yet
been subjected to the requirements of scientific scrutiny according to
American medical standards. However, since herbs and supplements are
available over-the-counter to all Americans, it is our belief that
patients are serving themselves well by undergoing an endobiogenic
evaluation to assist them in selecting herb and supplement therapy with the greatest
potential benefit and the least potential risk to them as unique
individuals.
