Current patients can request appointments through their patient portal or by calling our front office

For emergencies, please call 911.

We protect your information using strict HIPAA standards across all of our systems, records, and communication channels.

Your portal includes a medical records release form. You may use it to request prior records or authorize us to send records elsewhere.

We complement your primary care physician but do not replace them.

Your PCP handles routine screenings, acute care, and insurance-covered services; we focus on integrative, long-term root-cause treatment.

Your loved ones can begin with a Discovery Call to explore whether our care is right for them: https://calendly.com/drsharkar/discovery-call-referral

We specialize in persistent symptoms, complex cases, and concerns that haven’t improved elsewhere.

We focus on conditions where precision, depth, and long-term partnership create the greatest clinical impact:

• Metabolic and cardiovascular health
• Lyme disease and co-infections
• Hormonal imbalances and adrenal dysregulation
• Infertility and postpartum issues
• Perimenopause and menopause
  
• Digestive and gut issues
• Autoimmune and inflammatory conditions
• Unexplained or difficult-to-diagnose symptoms
• Longevity and healthy aging

Most likely, yes. Many of our patients have multifaceted or overlapping concerns that don’t fit neatly into one category.
A Discovery Call is the best way to confirm that we’re the right fit for your needs.

Check out our Services page for a more complete list of what we treat.

Our approach is outcome-driven. We track your symptoms, labs, and progress over time and adjust your plan as your body responds.
Most patients begin noticing meaningful shifts within the first few months. Your provider continuously refines your plan so your progress is steady, supported, and aligned with your goals.

Indigo Health Clinic operates outside of insurance networks. Many patients choose to use their out-of-network benefits and may receive partial reimbursement for visit fees. We provide superbills for visits only that you can file with your insurance for direct reimbursement if they cover out-of-network providers.

Please note:

• IV therapies cannot be submitted to insurance.
• We do not offer insurance billing or claims submission.
• Coverage for out-of-network care varies by plan; please contact your insurer for details.

Most patients prefer completing labs through their insurance’s in-network laboratory such as Quest or LabCorp. Please share your preferred lab so we can route orders appropriately.


Key points:

• Lab fees are separate from visit fees.
• Our testing panels are more comprehensive than standard primary care labs.
  
• Coverage varies; we recommend confirming with your insurance before completing testing.

Helpful questions to ask your insurance:

• Do I have out-of-network lab coverage?
• Which in-network lab should I use?
  
• What coverage should I expect for the ordered tests?
  

Some specialty labs are self-pay only. Pricing is shared with you in advance.

Specialty tests are billed directly to you and may be eligible for out-of-network reimbursement or FSA/HSA use. Pricing varies based on the complexity of the test. Your provider recommends only clinically meaningful testing.

Many patients use FSA or HSA funds for visits, qualified testing, and supplements. Coverage varies by plan.

A credit card on file is required during onboarding in addition to your FSA/HSA card.

We reserve dedicated time for every patient so your visits never feel rushed. To honor that commitment:

Provider and Health Coaching Visits
Please cancel or reschedule at least 2 business days in advance-not including the day of your visit. Changes outside this window incur the full visit fee, as this time is reserved exclusively for you.

IV Therapy Appointments
Please cancel or reschedule by 5 PM the day before your appointment to avoid the full service fee.

No-Show Policy
Appointments missed without notice are charged the full service fee so we can maintain timely access for all patients.

Indigo Health Clinic and Medicare
Our providers have formally opted out of Medicare.This means:

• We cannot bill Medicare or Medicare Advantage plans.
• Claims cannot be submitted for reimbursement.
• Patients with Medicare receive care through self-pay visits and sign a required opt-out agreement.

Yes. If your PCP is willing, they may order some or all recommended labs. Certain advanced markers may need to be routed through our specialty partners.

These services are typically not reimbursable. Superbills are not provided for these services.

To honor the depth of care we provide, we require all forms to be completed 3 business days prior to your appointment.

This preparation allows us to arrive fully aligned and ready to focus on you.

If forms are not completed, your appointment may need to be moved in accordance with our rescheduling policy.

Follow-up frequency depends on your condition and goals. Visits may be monthly or spaced several months apart. Your treatment plan will outline when you should be seen next.

Yes. Anyone you trust to support your care is welcome to join, as long as you’re present and have given your consent.

Please message us through your patient portal. If your question requires deeper discussion or clinical decision-making, we’ll schedule a follow-up visit.

The patient portal is the best place for communication.

For new concerns, we offer same-day or next-day acute visits for existing patients.

To give you the most accurate and meaningful guidance, we release all lab results on the day of your scheduled Follow-Up visit — not earlier.

This ensures your provider can walk you through the findings in context, explain what matters (and what doesn’t), and outline clear next steps. Reviewing results without interpretation can create unnecessary confusion or worry, especially since many panels return in stages.

Important notes:

• A Follow-Up visit must be scheduled for results to be released.
  
• Once reviewed together, all results remain fully accessible in your Patient Portal.
  
• For Quest or LabCorp testing, please confirm coverage with your insurance.
• If you have outside labs or records, upload them to your portal before your visit so we can incorporate them into your care.

Thank you for partnering with us in a thoughtful, informed approach that keeps your care clear and grounded.

Yes. We prescribe when medication is the most effective and safest option.
As an integrative clinic, we also address root causes using medical-grade supplements, advanced IV therapies, and targeted natural treatments.

To ensure your safety and deliver the highest level of personalized care, we require timely follow-up visits for all prescriptions, including hormones and ongoing medications.
These visits allow your provider to monitor your response, adjust dosing as needed, and ensure that treatment remains appropriate and effective.
If a follow-up is overdue, your prescriptions may be paused until we’re able to reconnect and review your progress.

We use supplements with the same intention as any clinical tool: thoughtfully, safely, and with a clear purpose.

Our formulas and partner brands are selected for their clinical integrity, purity, and consistency. They are professional-grade, third-party tested, and manufactured in GMP-certified facilities.

Each recommendation is evidence-informed and selected to support your goals.

Your provider monitors everything for safety and effectiveness and adjusts as needed.

Return Policy:

For safety reasons and to protect product integrity, all supplement sales are final and cannot be returned or exchanged.

All supplements we use are rigorously vetted for purity, potency, and safety.

You can order or refill your supplements directly through the Indigo Formulations store
https://store.indigohealthclinic.com/ — or purchase them in person at our clinic.

Every formula we carry is medical-grade, third-party tested, and selected for purity, potency, and clinical effectiveness. We encourage you to follow your personalized protocol for the most meaningful results.

Online orders are typically processed within 1–2 business days, and tracking will be emailed to you once your order ships.
