Answers for your health journey
The most common inquiries about our practice, our providers, and our protocols
Frequently Asked Questions
General
We offer a complimentary 30-minute Meet & Greet for prospective concierge care members. This is an opportunity to meet your potential provider, tour our Scottsdale facility, and ensure our philosophy of care aligns with your health goals – before you commit to a membership.
Our state-of-the-art facility is conveniently located off the 101 and Bell Road at 8757 E Bell Rd, Scottsdale, AZ 85260.
LifeScape operates on a Direct Primary Care (DPC) and concierge model. While we do not bill insurance for our membership fees or most in-office consultations, many of our patients use their insurance for outside labs, imaging, and specialist visits. We recommend checking with your provider for “out-of-network” reimbursement options.
Yes. We provide convenient on-site lab draws for our members and functional medicine patients, ensuring a seamless experience without the need for a separate trip to a laboratory center.
Absolutely. We offer robust telemedicine (video visit) capabilities for our members. This is ideal for follow-ups, minor urgent care needs, and consultations when you are traveling or unable to come to the office.
Concierge Care
Concierge Care is our highest tier membership, providing unlimited access to your dedicated physician, longer appointments (up to 2 hours for physicals), and 24/7 direct access. SimpleCare Direct is our Direct Primary Care (DPC) model led by our expert Nurse Practitioner, offering high-access, proactive care at an accessible monthly investment.
As a Concierge member, you are assigned a dedicated team consisting of your Physician, a Medical Assistant (MA), a Functional Dietitian, and our member support team & schedulers. This ensures that whoever you speak with knows your history and your health journey intimately.
DPC is a model that removes the “middleman” (insurance companies) from the primary care relationship. By paying a flat monthly fee directly to the practice, patients receive more time with providers, transparent pricing, and a focus on prevention rather than just “pill-for-an-ill” care.
Upon becoming a member, you will receive a welcome letter containing your physician’s direct contact information, your Medical Assistant’s contact, and an On-Call Physician number. This ensures you have access to medical guidance whenever you need it, 24/7.
Functional Medicine
It is a high-level, “deep dive” into your health to find the root cause of chronic issues. It includes an extensive 90-minute initial assessment, advanced diagnostic testing (genetics, gut microbiome, etc.), and a comprehensive therapeutic strategy.
No. Functional Medicine consultations are available to the community as a one-time, high-level evaluation. However, many patients choose to transition into our Concierge or SimpleCare programs for ongoing support and implementation of their treatment plan.
These consultations are generally not covered by insurance. However, patients can often utilize HSA/FSA funds, and we can provide a “superbill” for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement.
Nutrition
Nutrition services are open to both LifeScape members and the general public. You do not need a primary care membership to work with our Functional Dietitian.
Our nutrition information session is a 15-minute one-on-one call with our dietitian to understand our program offerings and help you identify if our services are a good fit for you.
Our dietitian performs a comprehensive review of your dietary habits, lifestyle, and lab work to create a personalized meal plan and supplement protocol tailored to your unique biochemistry.
Instead of offering a traditional weight loss program, we approach weight loss from a functional medicine lens, which means every person’s protocol is individualized and evidence based and includes a comprehensive review of labs, medical history, and diet/lifestyle habits. Additionally, we understand that body composition can be affected by blood sugar imbalances, stress, interrupted sleep, gut issues, chronic inflammation, and hormone shifts which are investigated and considered for each patient’s long term success.
Traditional nutrition often treats everyone as if they share the same metabolism. Functional nutrition is a data-driven investigation into your unique biochemistry. We don’t just look at what you eat; we use advanced diagnostics to understand how your body processes those nutrients, addressing the root causes of inflammation, hormonal imbalances, and gut dysfunction to create a diet that works for your specific DNA.
Aesthetics
Yes! Our aesthetics department is open to the community. Whether you are looking for medical-grade facials, chemical peels, or advanced laser treatments, anyone can book a consultation with our Licensed Medical Aesthetician.
We carry a curated selection of medical-grade skincare, including SkinBetter Science, Zo SkinHealth, and Latisse.
There is a $50 fee for your initial virtual or in-person consultation with our licensed aesthetician. This fee can then be applied to any future services or products you purchase through LifeScape.

Fitness
The Fit3D ProScanner is a powerful tool that captures a 3D avatar of your body, providing exact measurements, body composition data, and posture analysis to help track your fitness progress beyond just the scale.
Yes! We often recommend individuals start with our Kick-Start session, which include a screening of full-body mobility, an evaluation of orthopedic limitations, and a fitness action plan. The fee can be applied toward the purchase of a 6- or 8-session personal training package.
Yes, our fitness consultations, personal training, and Fit3D scans are available to both members and non-members.
BrainSpan
BrainSpan is a specialized program designed to optimize cognitive function and support brain longevity. It involves blood-spot testing to measure cellular health and a digital cognitive assessment to track memory, attention, and processing speed.
It is ideal for anyone experiencing “brain fog,” those with a family history of dementia, Alzheimer’s, or high-performers looking to optimize their mental clarity and focus.
It is a comprehensive 6-month guided program. It includes an initial assessment, 6 sessions of coaching with Amen-Certified Brain Coach Tina Duffy, and ongoing tracking via the TruNeura app to ensure your brain optimization strategy is measurable and effective.
The total program price for non-members and SimpleCare members is $4500. LifeScape concierge members receive a special reduced pricing on our BrainSpan program, as it is an additional layer of focused brain health support that goes beyond the inclusions within our standard membership package.
Healthy Kitchen Healthy You Club
The Healthy Kitchen, Healthy You (HKHY) Club is an online community and resource library featuring cooking classes, and recipes. By bridging the gap between clinical nutrition and daily lifestyle, we empower you to master the art of anti-inflammatory cooking and sustainable, whole-body vitality.
The HKHY Club is a FREE monthly membership available to everyone. It provides access to a regularly updated portal, monthly meal plans and recipes, and regular resources and updates from Dana Bosselmann.
