# Dr. Pal's NewME

> A doctor-led clinical system for metabolic and gut regulation, founded by
> Dr. Palaniappan Manickam, MD (gastroenterologist). NewME combines clinical
> insights with structured care to better understand your body and provide
> the care it needs.

NewME is a structured clinical system. The journey begins with a free
3-minute clinical assessment that maps metabolic and gut patterns, then
guides you into the appropriate phase of care. Every program is reviewed
by a medical committee before it begins, and each member is assigned a
Clinical Health Coach who works with them throughout the program.

## Clinical pathways

NewME offers three main pathway tracks. Each is doctor-led, time-bound, and
includes a Clinical Health Coach plus medical committee oversight.

- [Metabolic Pathway](https://drpalsnewme.com/pathways/metabolic): For those experiencing metabolic dysregulation — weight, energy, blood sugar, and related concerns.
- [GI Pathway](https://drpalsnewme.com/pathways/gi): For those with gut conditions such as IBS, SIBO, bloating, constipation, and reflux. Available in 1-month monthly or 3-month upfront billing.
- [Continuity Pathway](https://drpalsnewme.com/pathways/continuity): Ongoing maintenance care for members who have completed an initial pathway.

### Post-Pathway Programs (Optional)
After the structured pathway, members can transition to these optional programs (not part of the core pathway purchase):
- **NewME 360:** Ongoing health coaching and relapse prevention.
- **NewME Movement:** Fitness programming and live workout sessions.
