THE FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE DIFFERENCE
Most weight-loss programs chase the number.
We get to the source.
Functional medicine is a root-cause approach. Instead of only managing symptoms, your Functional Medicine NP and care team look at how your hormones, metabolism, gut, sleep and stress work together, so your plan addresses what may be driving your weight and is designed to help you keep it off.
Every system, one story
Hormones, thyroid, insulin, gut health, inflammation, sleep and stress, reviewed together.
Made to last
Addressing what's underneath supports results you can maintain, not a cycle of losing and regaining.
YOUR FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE CARE TEAM
Functional Medicine NP
Leads your evaluation, reviews your labs and builds your treatment plan.
Nutritionist
Turns your plan into meals and habits that fit your life.
Concierge Care Coordinator
Guides your intake, lab scheduling and every next step.
| CONVENTIONAL WEIGHT-LOSS CARE | ELOVA FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE | |
|---|---|---|
| Visit time | Often 10–15 minutes | 60 minutes, 1-on-1 |
| Lab testing | Basic panel | Advanced metabolic & hormone panel |
| Approach | Manages symptoms | Looks for root causes |
| Your plan | Generic diet and exercise advice | Personalized treatment plan tailored from your labs, history and goals |
| Support | On your own between visits | A functional medicine care team: NP, nutritionist and care coordinator |
| The goal | Short-term weight loss | Sustainable, long-term results |
Why we’re self-pay: insurance-based visits are often limited in time and in which labs can be ordered. As a self-pay practice, your NP can spend a full hour with you and test what truly matters for your weight.

FAQ
Your questions, answered.
How is Elova different from a lab-testing company?
Elova goes beyond a lab test by combining your Metabolic & Hormone Panel with a comprehensive health and weight history review, a dedicated 60-minute, 1:1 Nurse Practitioner consultation, and a personalized wellness plan.
Your NP considers your results alongside your symptoms, lifestyle, weight journey, concerns, and goals, takes time to explain your findings and answer your questions, and develops individualized recommendations based on your health picture.
You’re going from questions to a personalized plan: data, interpretation, and personalized direction.
Will this tell me exactly why I can’t lose weight?
There isn't always one single reason for difficulty losing weight, and no evaluation can guarantee a specific finding.
The evaluation provides a broader set of health information to help guide an individualized discussion about your weight, metabolic health, and overall wellness.
I came off a GLP-1 and I’m regaining. Can you help?
Absolutely. Weight regain after stopping GLP-1 medications is common. At Elova, we look beyond the scale to evaluate your metabolism, hormones, and other factors that may be contributing to weight regain. Our goal is to help you understand your body and develop a personalized plan for sustainable weight management.
What is functional medicine?
Functional medicine is a root-cause approach. Instead of only treating symptoms, it looks at how your hormones, metabolism, gut health, sleep and stress work together to understand what may be driving your weight. Addressing those underlying factors is what helps make results easier to maintain long term.
Do you accept insurance?
Elova is self-pay. That's what allows your NP to spend a full hour with you and order the testing that matters, without insurance limits. Your labs are included in the $997, so you don't need insurance to start.
Is there an ongoing membership?
No. Your evaluation is a one-time investment, with no ongoing membership required.
Who is eligible?
We're currently accepting patients in California.
