How the appointment works
The first appointment is an in-depth, unhurried conversation to get to know your story and understand what matters to you.
Appointments are booked through WhatsApp or the contact form. You can choose an in-person visit in São Paulo or Santos, or a telehealth appointment.
If you have recent test results, prescriptions or medical reports, have them ready to bring or share on the day. A list of the medications and supplements you take also helps.
The conversation covers your health history, routine, sleep, nutrition, physical activity, emotions and what brought you to seek care. In-person visits also include a physical exam.
At the end, we build a care plan together, with clear guidance and, if needed, test orders.
Care continues with follow-up visits to review test results, talk about how you are doing and adjust the plan. The interval between visits is agreed on together, based on your needs.
The appointment fee is provided when you book. Appointments are private pay, and Dr. Katia does not accept health insurance plans directly. On request, a receipt is issued that you can use to request reimbursement from your health plan, according to its rules.
Telehealth appointments take place on Doctoralia, Microsoft Teams or Google Meet, in a secure environment. You receive the access link after booking. Choose a private place with a good connection so you can talk comfortably.
