What a visit includes

Your first step is a free 15-minute call. If it feels like a fit, you book an initial consult, which is a longer conversation about your health history, current routines, and goals. Dr. Kneessi may suggest functional lab testing, and once results come back you meet again to go through them in plain language and refine your plan.

Frequently asked questions

Does insurance cover naturopathic visits?

Naturopathic doctors in Maryland are not currently able to contract with insurance companies, so visits are paid directly. Some people submit receipts to their plan or use HSA or FSA funds, and it is worth checking with your plan before your first visit. The 15-minute introductory call is free.

Can a naturopathic doctor be my primary care provider?

No. In Maryland, naturopathic doctors do not serve as primary care providers, so Dr. Kneessi works alongside your existing doctors rather than replacing them, and he encourages you to keep your regular checkups.
