Where to start with proactive care.
A simple guide to starting with Aroe and what to expect.

Most people come to us wanting to know where to begin. So we start by asking a few questions of our own: what do you want to solve? What do you want to improve? That is where the work begins. Not with a product. With a conversation about what actually matters to you.
Start with your baseline
The first step is a short clinical intake. We ask about your history, your goals, and what you have already tried. Then labs fill in the rest.
Think of labs as looking under the hood of the car. They show us shifts happening in your body long before you feel them, they tell us where to focus, and they let us track what is actually working over time. You should be running them at least once a year, ideally twice, so we can trend the picture and stay ahead of it.
A clinician decides what is appropriate
Nothing is prescribed just because you asked for it. A licensed clinician reviews your intake and decides what actually makes sense for you, which sometimes means less than you expected. Sometimes it means nothing at all right now, and a conversation about where to focus first.
Then it evolves
Care is dispensed on a quarterly, 90-day cycle, with check-ins in between. What you start on is not necessarily what you stay on. The plan changes as you do.
What that actually looks like
- A short intake, answered at your pace
- Labs at least once a year, ideally twice, so we can trend the picture
- A clinician-designed plan you can see the reasoning behind
- Review and adjustment every cycle
At Aroe, starting care means starting a relationship with a team who knows you and helps you live better for longer.
