What is the DUTCH Test, and why might Dr. Griffin order one?

Hormone testing is not always as simple as checking whether a number is “high” or “low.”

The DUTCH Test uses dried urine samples to provide a more detailed look at certain hormones and how the body processes them. Depending on the panel, it may include estrogen metabolites, progesterone and testosterone-related markers, as well as cortisol patterns throughout the day.

That can be helpful when someone is experiencing changes that may involve multiple systems, particularly during times of hormonal transition.

The important part is this: more data is only useful when it is interpreted in context. A DUTCH Test should not be used as a stand-alone diagnosis or a reason to treat a lab result instead of the patient.

At Tidal Wellness, testing is used as one piece of a bigger picture: your symptoms, history, current medications, goals, and other appropriate labs all matter.

Summer is winding down, which makes fall a great time for a personal health reset.
If you are already good about keeping up with your numbers and staying on top of your wellness, use the change of season as a reminder to check in on a few things you may not think about every day.

Your fall health checklist:
• Review your blood pressure trends
• Make sure routine labs are up to date
• Check your A1C, cholesterol, and other metabolic markers if they are due
• Schedule any overdue annual exams or screenings
• Review your medications and supplements
• Take a look at your sleep quality and energy levels
• Reassess your movement and exercise routine as schedules change
• Pay attention to any new or changing symptoms you may have brushed off over the summer
• Set one realistic health goal to carry into the final months of the year

Staying healthy is not always about finding something wrong. Sometimes it is simply about checking in, noticing trends, and making small adjustments before they become bigger concerns.

Consider this your reminder to put your own health back on the fall calendar. 🍂

Happy Labor Day from Tidal Wellness. 🇺🇸

Today is a good reminder that rest is productive too.

Whether you are spending the day with family, soaking up the last stretch of summer, enjoying time on the water, or simply slowing down for a bit, we hope you give yourself permission to recharge.

Your health is shaped by more than appointments, workouts, and routines. Rest, connection, laughter, and time away from the usual pace matter too.

Wishing you a safe, restful, and happy Labor Day from all of us at Tidal Wellness. 🌊

You can feel completely fine and still have pre-diabetes.

That’s one of the reasons routine lab work matters.

A1C is a simple blood test that gives us a picture of your average blood sugar over the past few months. It can help identify changes in glucose regulation before they progress to Type 2 diabetes.

And here’s the important part: elevated blood sugar does not always come with obvious warning signs.😟

Things like fatigue, increased hunger, difficulty losing weight, or just feeling “off” may get your attention, but sometimes there are no noticeable symptoms at all.

Preventive care is not only about treating something once you are sick. It is about knowing your numbers, understanding your risk factors, and catching changes early enough to do something about them.

When was the last time you had your A1C checked?

Something exciting is coming to Tidal Wellness… ✨

If you love the results of your aesthetic laser treatments but wish maintaining them felt a little easier, more consistent, and more intentional — you’re going to want to watch this space.

We’re introducing a whole new way to make maintenance part of your routine.

What if your doctor had time to actually sit with you, listen, and work through the possibilities?

At Tidal Wellness, care isn’t about rushing through an appointment or treating a single symptom in isolation. It’s about slowing down long enough to understand the full picture — what you’re experiencing, what may be contributing to it, and what options make the most sense for you.

Dr. Griffin believes some of the best healthcare happens when your provider has the time to ask better questions, dig a little deeper, and work alongside you to find solutions.

Because you deserve more than a quick visit.

You deserve a doctor who has time to think with you, problem-solve with you, and help you create a plan you actually understand and feel confident about.

That’s the difference when care feels personal. 🤍

One of the biggest differences in Direct Primary Care isn’t a test, treatment or prescription.

It’s the relationship.

When your physician has time to know your history, understand what has changed and follow the bigger picture over time, healthcare becomes more proactive and more personal.

You shouldn’t have to start your story over every time you need care.

That continuity matters.

And it’s one of the reasons Dr. Griffin chose a different model for primary care.

Want to learn more about what makes us different? Give us a call!

We'll be happy to talk through what kind of support we offer our patients and what differentiates us from the traditional model of primary care medicine.

Meet Lisa Price, the newest member of the Tidal Wellness team! ✨

Lisa is a Licensed Esthetician with more than a decade of experience in medical aesthetics, with specialized expertise in laser-based treatments and technology.

Her role is a little different from what you may traditionally think of when you hear “esthetician.” Lisa’s focus isn’t traditional facials or skincare treatments. Her expertise is in medical aesthetic laser therapies, helping patients understand which treatments are appropriate for their goals, what to expect, and how to get the most from their treatment plan.

Lisa is trained to provide almost all of the laser therapies available at Tidal Wellness, including treatments designed to address concerns such as:
• Skin tone and texture
• Pigmentation and sun damage
• Skin resurfacing and rejuvenation
• Laser hair removal
• Feminine wellness
• And more

Just as important as her technical experience is Lisa’s passion for patient education.

She believes patients should understand not only what treatment they’re receiving, but why it’s being recommended and what it can realistically accomplish.

We’re excited to welcome Lisa to Tidal Wellness and even more excited for you to meet her!

If laser treatment has been on your radar, Lisa is ready to help you determine the right place to start. 💗
