FAQ
(Frequently Asked Questions)
Q: What kind of testing is involved?
We use specialized blood and urine tests that focus on nutrient levels, oxidative stress markers, histamine, copper/zinc balance, methylation status, and more. These are not typical tests done in standard clinics.
Q: Does it work?
Every individual is unique, but Dr. Walsh’s protocol has helped over 30,000 patients achieve significant improvements in their mental health.
Q: How long does it take to see results?
Some clients notice improvements within a few weeks, while for others it can take 3–6 months to experience full benefits. Healing biochemical imbalances is a process, and consistency is key.
Q: Is this a replacement for my medication?
No. We work alongside any current treatments you are on. Over time, and under your prescribing doctor's supervision, some individuals may be able to reduce or discontinue medications as their biochemistry stabilizes — but we never recommend stopping medications without proper medical oversight.
Q: What if my doctor hasn’t heard of the Walsh Protocol?
The Walsh Protocol is a specialized, emerging approach within functional medicine and functional psychiatry. Many conventional doctors may not be familiar with it yet, but it is based on published research and over 30 years of clinical outcomes.

While some extended health plans may cover certain lab tests or naturopathic consultations, coverage varies widely. We recommend checking with your provider. Receipts are provided for all services.
