We recommend ongoing care for at least one year because meaningful vascular changes take time to monitor, adjust, and confirm progress. The annual fee for this service is $2,700 and includes a 10% discount when paid up front. We also offer month to month care at $250 per month. If you think you may need to pause care at any point, the monthly option is usually the better fit. Labs are extra and are very individualized; however, we typically see lab fees in the range of $60 – $120 per quarter. If care is paused, we recommend discussing this with your provider so expectations, follow up, and next steps are clear if you decide to resume.

FAQs Archive | The BaleDoneen Method

Q: What if I have sudden stroke-like symptoms?

If you think you are having a stroke, call 911 immediately. Sudden symptoms such as face drooping, arm weakness, trouble speaking, vision changes, or a severe headache require emergency care. Do not wait and do not contact BaleDoneen first. Stroke prevention focuses on artery health before symptoms appear. The BaleDoneen Method helps identify hidden vascular disease and inflammation early, often before a stroke or heart attack occurs. Care focuses on measuring risk, treating the root causes of artery disease, and reducing the chance of a first or repeat event. If you are concerned about stroke risk, the best place to start is a clinical evaluation where your history, labs, and imaging can be reviewed and a prevention plan created.

Q: Can you coordinate care with my local provider?

Yes. With your permission, we can coordinate care with your primary care provider or specialist to share findings, recommendations, and care plans so everyone stays aligned.

Q: What should I do if I have chest pain?

Chest pain can be serious. If you have chest pain, shortness of breath, dizziness, or other urgent symptoms, seek emergency care right away. Our program is not an emergency service. Our program is designed and proven to prevent the first event or any future events from occurring.

Q: I feel fine but have a family history of heart attacks. What should I do?

You do not need symptoms to be at risk. With a family history, early testing and prevention can reduce the chance of a first heart attack. Start with our free heart health risk assessment to determine your level of risk, once completed you can determine if speaking 1:1 with a BaleDoneen trained provider makes sense for you.

Q: Will you change my medications?

Medication decisions are made carefully and individually. If medication changes are appropriate, they are discussed with you and handled by your BaleDoneen provider after your comprehensive diagnostic testing has been completed. This may include starting, adjusting, or stopping medications based on risk, response, and safety. We can also coordinate with your local physician when needed to keep care aligned.

Q: Do you recommend supplements?

Sometimes, but only when they are appropriate for you. Supplement guidance is based on your labs, imaging, medical history, and overall risk profile. We do not recommend blanket supplement lists or one size fits all protocols. If supplements are appropriate, your provider will explain why, how to take them, and how they fit into your overall care plan. Supplements are used to support vascular health, not replace medical care. After care with your provider, we have an online supplement store where you can purchase the appropriate supplement recommended for you.
