Do you have questions about your health or a diagnosis that you received?

Are you still feeling sick even after lots of treatment?

Do you want more from your health?

We look forward to working with you !

Your First Visit

During the first visit, our goal is to get to know you and to gather information concerning your needs. For a standard first visit, we ask that you fill out the intake paperwork and return it at least 3 days before your first visit. We’d like some time to consider the information you provide so THANK YOU for your help and timeliness. At your first visit we will review any records you bring, perform a focused physical exam, and order lab tests or previous records as needed.  You can expect the first appointment to last about 80 minutes.  From there, we will work together to create a plan of action.

Vitamins + Supplements

The vitamin and supplement industry is LARGELY unregulated and therefore MANY poor quality and potentially harmful products exist on the market To ensure SAFETY and POTENCY, Dr. Simko recommends high quality trusted products, which are additionally tested for assurance of purity, potency, and correctly identified ingredients. 

Dr. Simko is happy to make these products available to her patients while still keeping them AFFORDABLE.   We have a partnership with Wellevate and others to bring you online ordering and home delivery of many of the items we prescribe.   Other items will be delivered or arranged for pick-up as needed.

Insurance + Payments

For those with insurance - you CAN use your insurance benefits with our office!

We ask for payment at the time of service, then fill out a simple form for you after your visit (called a superbill), which you submit for your own insurance reimbursement.   

Premera Blue Cross (BCBS), Aetna, Labor & Trades, Alaska Electrical Health & Welfare Fund and United Healthcare among others offer insurance benefits for naturopathic medicine. Those patients with Medicare - if you have a secondary insurance - that might be eligible for our services as well. Please inquire. Many choose to use an HSA (healthcare spending account card) or FSA (flexible spending account) from their employers for visits and supplements - this works well. 

This unique billing approach allows our office to focus on what we do best: high quality patient-centered care.  In our experience, this approach allows patients the freedom to seek care outside of the usual network while still getting to use their insurance benefits.    We try to keep things simple, for all parties, and we find that this system works.
