Meagan S - Bio-Energy Testing® Technician, Cancer Care Coordinator
Meagan Siciliano is our lead Bio-Energy Testing® technician. Bio-Energy Testing® is the most innovative health and anti-aging tool ever developed. Every cell in your body contains thousands of tiny bubble-like structures called mitochondria. It is in these mitochondria that oxygen is converted to energy by burning fat and sugar. Bio-Energy Testing® measures how well your mitochondria are functioning. This testing involves the use of a device connected to a computer that can measure how much oxygen the body uses and how much carbon dioxide the body is producing at a given time. A series of measurements are taken at rest and during a progressively more difficult exercise program.
Aside from Bio-Energy Testing®, Meagan is also our Insulin Potentiation Cancer Therapy Scheduling Coordinator. She ensures all incoming and existing cancer patients’ needs are met including, but not limited to, treatment protocol scheduling, referrals and billing.
She also takes care of any patient’s general billing needs/inquiries.
In her spare time, she loves spending time outdoors enjoying God's beauty with her husband and two children. Philippians 4:6-7
