A central location in the county
Odenton sits near the middle of Anne Arundel County, so the office is a reasonable drive from Annapolis, Crofton, Gambrills, Severn, Severna Park, and Fort Meade. If you would rather not drive, Monday and Friday are set aside for telehealth, and virtual visits are also available Tuesday through Thursday. You can learn more on the Annapolis page or the Odenton page.
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.
If you want to know how naturopathic doctors fit into Maryland law, his article on what a naturopathic doctor does in Maryland explains licensing and scope.
If you would rather learn on your own first, the free 28-Day Reset for Energy and Focus sends one short, educational email a day with simple habits around sleep, light, movement, and food, so you can get a feel for how Dr. Kneessi thinks before you ever meet.

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.
