Find answers to common questions.

Getting started
What is Welle, and how does it work?

Welle is proactive, whole-person care that helps you understand your health and take action through five steps:

  1. Measure your baseline. Complete your health intake and testing across 110+ biomarkers and insights.
  2. Meet with a health expert. Review your results and goals with a licensed clinician during a 30-minute live clinical review.
  3. Start your Whole Health Plan. Put personalized nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle recommendations into practice.
  4. Therapeutics delivered to you. When clinically appropriate, you can purchase personalized supplements or clinician-prescribed medications for delivery to your door.
  5. Retest and refine. Use follow-up testing and ongoing clinical support to track progress and adjust your plan as your needs evolve.
Getting started
What sets Welle apart from other preventative care options?

Welle connects testing with a clear plan and support to act on it. Your clinician considers your results alongside your health history, how you feel, and your goals, then helps you understand what to focus on in your Whole Health Plan.

From there, you can put recommendations into practice through nutrition, exercise, lifestyle changes, and, when appropriate, supplements or clinician-guided prescriptions. Follow-up testing can help you and your clinician see what's changing and refine your plan. Optional testing, programs, and products may cost extra.

Getting started
How does Welle compare with an annual physical?

An annual physical provides an important check-in with your primary care provider. Welle complements it with broader testing, a dedicated clinical review of your results, and a personalized Whole Health Plan focused on what you can improve and track over time. Welle does not replace your primary care provider.

Getting started
Does Welle replace my doctor or concierge care membership?

No. Welle is designed to complement primary and specialty care, not replace it. You can share your Welle results and Whole Health Plan with your existing providers to help keep your care coordinated.

Getting started
Who can sign up for Welle?

Welle is available to adults age 18 and older who meet applicable clinical and geographic eligibility requirements. During onboarding, we'll let you know if any part of the program isn't appropriate or available for you.

During pregnancy: Welle is not available at this time. Pregnancy changes many biomarkers, which can make results harder to interpret.

After pregnancy: If you are timing testing to your menstrual cycle (cycle-syncing), you can test after completing two full menstrual cycles postpartum. For questions about your testing timeline, message your Welle clinical team in the app.

Getting started
Where is Welle available?

Welle is available in 48 states and Washington, D.C. Welle is currently unavailable in Rhode Island and Hawaii. Availability for specific testing options, programs, and services may vary by location.

Getting started
Can I purchase Welle for someone else?

Yes. You can give Welle to a friend or family member. They'll create their own private account and complete their own health information, consents, and onboarding.

Testing and scans
What testing is included with my Welle membership?

Your baseline testing includes 110+ biomarkers and insights across major areas of health, including heart, metabolic, hormone, immune, liver, kidney, nutrient, and other health systems. Your exact testing may vary based on biological sex and other clinical factors.

Testing and scans
What are biomarkers, and why does Welle test so many?

Biomarkers are measurable indicators of health, such as blood sugar or cholesterol levels. Looking across multiple biomarkers helps your clinician see how different areas of your health relate to one another.

Welle uses this broader view to establish your baseline, identify patterns, and guide your Whole Health Plan. Follow-up testing can help you and your clinician track changes over time.

Testing and scans
How does Welle select the biomarkers it tests?

Welle's testing is clinically selected to provide actionable information across major areas of health. We prioritize biomarkers that can help identify meaningful patterns, establish a baseline, guide recommendations, or measure progress over time.

Testing and scans
Can I add additional testing?

Yes. Welle members can purchase optional add-on testing from a catalog covering more than 300 biomarkers. Available options depend on your goals, eligibility, location, and the testing you've already completed. Add-on testing is priced separately from your membership.

Testing and scans
Can I do my testing at home, or do I need to visit a lab?

Depending on your location and the tests ordered, your options may include:

  • In-clinic testing: visit a participating lab for your collection.
  • Mobile testing: a collection professional comes to you.
  • At-home testing: collect your sample using the kit and instructions provided.

Welle will show you which options are available for your testing and how to prepare.

Testing and scans
Where do I go for an in-clinic lab draw?

Welle works with a nationwide network of laboratory locations, including Quest Diagnostics. We'll show you available locations and provide your lab order, preparation instructions, and appointment information.

Testing and scans
Do I need to fast before testing?

Some tests require fasting. When fasting is required, Welle will provide instructions before your collection. For baseline testing, this typically means fasting for about 10 hours with water only.

Testing and scans
Should I schedule my testing in the morning?

Morning collection is recommended for many baseline tests because certain biomarkers can vary throughout the day. Your preparation instructions will tell you when your collection should be completed.

Testing and scans
Should I stop taking biotin before testing?

Biotin can interfere with certain laboratory tests. Welle generally recommends pausing biotin-containing supplements for 72 hours before applicable testing unless your clinician tells you otherwise.

Testing and scans
Should I stop taking medications before testing?

Do not stop prescription medications unless a clinician specifically tells you to. Follow the preparation instructions Welle provides and contact your care team if you have questions about a medication or supplement before testing.

Testing and scans
How long does an in-clinic lab visit take?

Most in-clinic lab visits take about 10–20 minutes after check-in. Wait times vary by location, so allow extra time for your appointment. The number of samples collected depends on the tests ordered.

Testing and scans
What happens if I miss my appointment or there's a problem with my sample?

If you miss your appointment, you can reschedule through Welle. If a sample can't be processed or another collection is needed, we'll let you know and help coordinate the next step.

Testing and scans
What is a DEXA scan, and can I add one?

A DEXA scan provides information about body composition, including body fat and lean mass. Depending on the scan, it can also provide information about visceral fat and bone density.

DEXA testing may be available as an optional add-on in supported locations. It is priced separately from your membership.

Results and your Whole Health Plan
How long does it take to receive my results?

Your complete results are typically ready about a week after your sample is collected. Some tests take longer to process than others, so results may arrive at different times. We'll notify you when your complete results are ready.

Results and your Whole Health Plan
Will Welle explain what my results mean?

Yes. Your results include explanations to help you understand what looks good, what deserves attention, and how different areas of your health may relate to one another. During your 30-minute live clinical review, you can ask questions and discuss what the findings mean for your Whole Health Plan.

A result outside the lab's reference range does not always mean you have a health problem. Results within range do not rule out every condition. Your clinician considers your results alongside your symptoms and health history to guide next steps.

Results and your Whole Health Plan
What happens if one of my results is critically abnormal?

Critical results are handled separately from the normal results process. Welle will notify you, and a clinical provider will contact you when appropriate. Welle is not an emergency service. If you believe you're experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or seek immediate medical care.

Results and your Whole Health Plan
What is my Whole Health Plan?

Your Whole Health Plan turns your results, health history, symptoms, and goals into personalized next steps. Depending on your needs, it may include:

  • Nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle recommendations.
  • Supplements or prescription medications when clinically appropriate.
  • Follow-up testing to help track your progress.

Your clinician will walk you through the plan during your results review so you understand what to focus on.

Results and your Whole Health Plan
Will my Whole Health Plan change over time?

Yes. Your health isn't static, and your plan shouldn't be either. New results, progress, changing goals, and clinical needs can all inform updates to your Whole Health Plan.

Results and your Whole Health Plan
Can I share my Welle results with my doctor?

Yes. Your health information belongs to you. You can use your Welle results and Whole Health Plan when working with your primary care provider or other healthcare professionals.

Results and your Whole Health Plan
How often should I retest?

Your membership includes comprehensive testing once a year. Your clinician may recommend targeted follow-up testing between annual tests to track progress or guide changes to your Whole Health Plan.

The timing depends on your results, goals, programs, and clinical needs. Additional testing is optional and priced separately from your membership.

Clinical visits and support
What happens during my clinical review?

Your clinical review is a live conversation of approximately 30 minutes with a licensed clinician. You'll discuss your results, health goals, and concerns, then walk through your personalized Whole Health Plan and the next steps that matter most to you.

Bring your questions about your results and what you'd like to improve.
