Every other recommendation you make starts with a test. Nutrition still starts with a guess.

Monday, September 28 · 2:00 to 3:18 PM Eastern · Online

• 3 Practitioners at the table
• 78 Minutes, questions included
• $0 Free to attend

Who is at the table

One host and two clinicians who order labs for a living.

The recommendation you cannot verify

A patient asks what they should be taking. You answer from experience, and the answer is probably right. But neither of you knows where they started, and in six months neither of you will know whether it moved. That is the one part of your practice still running on belief instead of data, and patients can feel the difference between the two.

What changes when you test first

Three practitioners, one table, and a conversation they have each had privately with colleagues. Dr. Carla Burns hosts. Dr. Tiffany Keenan brings 25 years of family medicine and the functional lens she has built on top of it. Dr. Crystal Charest has run a naturopathic clinic in Miramichi since 2002, where lab work and IV nutrient therapy are ordinary Tuesday work. The second half is the partnership question, asked plainly, because that is the part most people want to ask and few events make room for.

• A baseline you can point to, before anything is recommended
• A retest that says whether it moved, and by how much
• Third-party verification, and how to check it yourself
• Where this fits in a practice that is already full
• How the partnership works, and what you actually agree to
• Your questions answered live, not in a follow-up email

The run of show

• 2:00 · Welcome

  Dr. Carla Burns opens with why these three are in the same room, and what the next 78 minutes will and will not cover.

• 2:08 · Test first, recommend second

  Dr. Tiffany Keenan on what a baseline actually shows, and how a recommendation reads differently once you have one.

• 2:28 · Inside the science

  Dr. Crystal Charest on the testing itself: what is measured, who verifies it, and the questions a practitioner should ask before recommending anything.

• 2:48 · The partnership model

  How this works alongside a practice, a clinic, a studio, or a coaching business. What it asks of you, and what it does not.

• 3:03 · Questions

  All three answer live until 3:18. Bring the awkward one.

Reserve a seat

The session runs live on Monday, September 28 from 2:00 to 3:18 PM Eastern, online. Registering gets you the join link, a reminder the day before and an hour before, and the replay afterward if you cannot make the live hour. If you want to talk about what a partnership would look like alongside your own practice, there is time for that after, on your terms.

Before you register

Who is this actually for?

Physicians, naturopaths, nurse practitioners, chiropractors, dietitians, coaches, and studio or spa owners. Anyone whose clients already ask them what they should be taking.

Is this a recruiting call?

The second half is, and we would rather say so now than surprise you at 2:48. The first half is clinical: what the test measures and how to verify it. Stay for one, both, or neither.

Do I need to be there live?

No. Register and the replay comes to you. The live hour is where your questions get answered, so come if you can.

What does it cost?

Nothing to attend. The partnership conversation afterward is a separate decision, made on your own time.

I already recommend omega-3s. Why would I sit through this?

Because the interesting part is not the supplement, it is the before and after number. If you already recommend, you are the person most likely to find a retest useful.

Can I bring a colleague?

Please do. Send them this link and have them register in their own name so they get their own join link and replay.

Is the Q&A recorded too?

Yes. The full session, questions included, goes to everyone who registered.

One hour, and a better answer to the question you get asked every week.

Monday, September 28 at 2:00 PM Eastern. Three practitioners, 78 minutes, and time for your questions.
