The Malone Medical Comprehensive Assessment Has 5 Core Components:
Strategic needle placement to stimulate energy flow, reduce pain and inflammation, and restore your body’s natural balance.
- The Comprehensive Biopsychsocial Assessment
- The Comprehensive Psychiatric/Biodynamic Assessment
- The Comprehensive Medical Assessment
- The Comprehensive Nutritional Health Assessment
- The Optimization and Feedback Meeting
The Comprehensive Assessment is completed over a 3 to 5 day period
A Biopsychsocial Assessment is a diagnostic tool to evaluate an individual’s emotional, spiritual, and environmental functioning over time. It allows an opportunity to determine patterns, frequencies, and compounding variables that contribute to decompensation or specific symptom representation. It provides a narrative of how a client has come to experience their current daily living and how best to identify or confirm a diagnosis.
Elements of a Biopsychsocial Include:
- Precipitating Symptoms
- Health History
- Substance History
- Social and Relationship History
- Current Family Dynamics
- Family Diagnoses and Historical Family Factors
- Faith or Religious Influence
- Treatment History
- Sexual History
- Trauma History
The Psychiatric Biodynamic Assessment is a detailed process of interview and consult with current and historical providers. A linear method of information gathering and promoting opportunities to eliminate gaps in understanding client diagnosis.
Upon entry, each client will receive a personalized set of wearable monitoring devices. By capturing real time data with our proprietary software – incorporating far beyond what apps offer, we can highlight and discern key factors of an individual’s functioning.
Elements of the remote patient monitoring will determine baseline measures for:
- O2 Levels
- Hydration
- Blood Sugar
- Body Composition
- Sleep Study
- Bone Density
- HR / HRV
- Gut Metabolism
- Physical Activity & Calories
Medical assessments go beyond just an interview. We incorporate additional tools for data and feedback that highlight areas of health concerns.
- Detailed Medical History
- Medical Due Diligence with Current and Former Providers
- Physical Exam
- Hormone Assessment
- Comprehensive Lab Workup
- EKG (if indicated)
- Ultrasound (if indicated)
The Gut Biome can affect your digestion, immunity, and mental health. The gut is referred to as the second brain. Its impact on our moods, energy, and overall attention has long been underestimated.

The Gut Health Assessment will include:
- Comprehensive Nutrition Session That Includes Medical Record Review (Doctor Notes, Procedures, Labs)
- Review of Medical History
- Current Gut Symptoms Including Diet & Supplements
- Discussing Realistic Goals and Offering Attainable Interventions
