What Our Clients Are Saying
“Dr. Davis is great!
He is interested in solving the root cause of my issues, not just prescribing drugs and sending me on my way.
He always spends over an hour with me going over every aspect of my health.
Such a contrast to my last cardiologist that never spent more than 15 minutes with me, prescribing drugs that negatively affected me, never looking for the cause of my problems, and only doing what the insurance company would pay for.”
Norma Rosenberg
“I recently took my family member to see Dr. Davis due to the research that I have doing on heart disease on the internet. Dr. Davis went beyond all my expectations! It is very difficult to find a integrative functional medicine cardiologist who also knows the conventional approach as Dr. Davis. He was very compassionate and did not make you feel like he was in a hurry. He listened very intently to everything we had to say. He definitely is not your conventional cardiologist that has a revolving door of prescribing statins to their patients. The best thing about Dr. Davis was his holistic approach to heart issues. He considers in all the different contingencies involved in heart disease. I highly recommend him to anyone who really wants to get to the root cause of their heart disease. His staff was also amazing!”

“Dr. Cris Davis was previously a top rated cardiovascular surgeon. He now brings that skill base into his current wellness practice which is especially important to me as a patient of his with cardiac disease. His practice is phenomenal and my health has improved significantly! I’ve experienced a tremendous decrease in my weight as well. He’s a genius at this and all I can say is please don’t hesitate to make an investment in yourself towards longevity!”
Frank Griffith Jr.
“I’m an ex pharmacist based in Australia and came across Dr Chris Davis in a magazine publication.I was looking for a cardiologist who could help my dad in London with a more holistic approach to minimise the number of medications but maximise his health through exercise, healthy lifestyle and any preventive actions he could take. My dad also had a lot heavy legs and hip pain. He had been to multiple different hospital appointments in London with no real positive outcomes. He was low on energy and at 77 starting to think he is getting old! Dr Chris made recommendations to my dads general practitioner and offered specific healthcare advice. 3 months later my dad has lots of energy, is walking 10 times the
distance he could walk before and is virtually pain free. Seeing my dad happy and like a little kid again is priceless. Thank you so much.”
Hament Chavda
“In February I decided to seek out a functional doctor for numerous issues I have had, from thyroid issues, to sleep issues, anxiety, HRT, to just name a few. From day one the office staff was super helpful in gathering all of my medical records. My first visit with Dr. Davis lasted close to two hours. He listened, discussed, reviewed and ordered labs to gather details that my previous doctors had not looked at. Upon completion of my labs, we had another two hour visit to complete an action plan/next steps. The changes he made and the supplements he prescribed have already started working and I am feeling so much better. Dr. Davis is caring, thorough, and attentive to my health care needs. The office staff is also outstanding.”
Kelly Dancer
“I believe it’s essential for every patient to have a doctor like Dr. Davis when it comes to their wellness journey- whichever path that may be! He truly is a whole different breed in the best way possible. What he has created and is continuing to expand in his clinic is the future of medicine. His knowledge is unmatchable. He’s driven and motivated to find the root cause, not just suppress your symptoms which is key! I cannot say enough good things about him and his staff! They are always personable and very on top of things. If you’re looking for the gold standard of a doctor, staff, testing, diagnosing, an individualized treatment plan, etc. Look no further, you just found it! I feel blessed to have found a doctor that I truly trust and will continue to be a loyal client of his for many years to come!”

How is heart screening at Reveal Vitality in Sarasota better than the lipid test?
Heart screening at Reveal Vitality in Sarasota provides far more information than a standard lipid test. A lipid test measures the amount of cholesterol and other fats in your blood. While this information is important, there are many other contributing factors to heart disease that need to be detected early to prevent symptomatic heart disease. For example, elements such as the size of cholesterol partials and stiffness found in arteries are important to be aware of.
Understanding heart conditions we may be prone to can help us take preventive measures to avoid major issues. Our detailed and comprehensive heart screening provides greater intel than a standard lipid panel. With the capability to detect red flags sooner, proactive measures can be taken to preserve heart health. Encompassing a broad range of cardiovascular health markers, our holistic diagnostic and treatment approach enables a fuller understanding of your heart health. Once we do have that understanding of your cardiovascular health, we can develop the most effective personalized care plan for you.

At Reveal Vitality you can trust in the care you receive knowing that we aren't just treating a symptom or issue. We are analyzing your whole body and lifestyle to truly understand you. We only deliver personalized treatment plans and go the extra mile to answer patient questions. You are unique despite the differences you share with other humans.

Is a heart scan covered by insurance?
Are heart scans worth the money?
Is a heart CT scan better than an echocardiogram?
A CT scan of the heart, also referred to as a coronary calcium scan, that provides still, detailed images of the heart. It’s a diagnostic procedure that uses x-rays and computers to create the images. CT scans can be used to identify build ups of calcium within the pathways of the heart to predict the chances of a cardiac episode. An echocardiogram uses sound wave technology to develop an active moving picture of how well the heart is functioning. Neither test is better or worse. The recommended test or combination of tests can vary depending on the circumstances. A compilation of images from both a heart CT scan and an echocardiogram may provide the most comprehensive understanding of heart function.
Can you get a coronary calcium scan without a referral?
Coronary calcium scans can be accessible without a referral depending on the provider and your intentions. If you intend to use insurance coverage, you may need a referral and a practice that is in network. At Reveal Vitality you can access all of our services without a referral. We offer payment plans to help patients paying out of pocket. We can also offer an invoice that can be submitted to insurance by the patient for possible reimbursement.
