In a world dominated by social media influencers, rapid-fire prescriptions, and the commodification of health, it's easy to become disillusioned. When healthcare starts to resemble a marketing campaign more than a healing partnership, we lose something fundamental: the human connection. At Beyond Health, we’ve stepped off the assembly line and built something rare—medicine grounded in integrity, science, and individualized care.
We aren’t here to be famous. We’re here to make you healthier.
As a physician who spent years inside the traditional system, I’ve seen how clinical care has become a numbers game. Primary care visits are often reduced to 15–20 minute encounters. Clinicians are expected to chart extensively, code meticulously, and move on quickly. There's little room for nuance, connection, or long-term strategy.
Meanwhile, the so-called “wellness” space is increasingly dominated by influencers and entrepreneurs selling expensive protocols with minimal evidence. Supplement stacks, detox teas, and designer hormone kits promise optimization—but often deliver confusion, dependency, or worse.
Neither model respects the complexity of human health. Neither one offers sustainable, personalized care rooted in scientific rigor.
At Beyond Health, no two care plans are alike. We start with a deep dive into your labs, your goals, your physiology, and your lifestyle. From there, we create a plan that fits you—not a demographic or a diagnosis.
Your hormone therapy is based on your symptoms and lab trends—not an online calculator. Your nutrition plan is guided by our registered dietitian—not a macro app. Your movement program is designed by a physical therapist or personal trainer who understand your body’s limitations and potential.
Every element—from lab selection to supplement dosing to progress tracking—is tailored with precision. We don't rely on generic templates. We rely on clinical expertise and ongoing collaboration.
We don’t take sponsorships. We don’t sell branded supplements. We don’t recommend products because they’re trending—we recommend them because they’re effective, safe, and evidence-based.
Everything we endorse has passed through the same filter: Would I use this myself? Would I give it to my family?
Our independence is one of our greatest strengths. It frees us to focus on you, not on affiliate commissions or marketing quotas.
Every patient at Beyond Health is under my direct care or the care of one of my extensively vetted colleagues. I’m not a symbolic figure at the top of a website. I’m the physician leading all of your teams.
Our panel is capped at 200 patients per provider—because that’s the limit at which we can still provide responsive, thoughtful, relationship-centered care. This isn’t a growth tactic. It’s a promise to maintain quality, accessibility, and trust.
When you message us, you’re not routed to a chatbot. When we adjust your plan, it’s not an AI-generated tweak. It's real clinical medicine, delivered by a team that knows you by name.
What happens when a physician, registered dietitian, physical therapist, and personal trainer work together under one roof?
You get a level of synergy that most healthcare experiences are missing.
Instead of siloed care, you receive integrated strategies that respect your medical history, nutritional needs, physical mechanics, and performance goals. Our team collaborates behind the scenes so your care is seamless.
We combine:
This isn’t “wellness.” This is comprehensive, interdisciplinary medicine.
The traditional healthcare model is reactionary. It treats symptoms, not systems. It’s good at diagnosing and prescribing—but often fails at transforming health.
I left that world because I wanted to have the conversations that matter. Conversations about blood sugar stability, inflammation, circadian rhythm, metabolic adaptation, and long-term strategy. Conversations that don’t fit into 20-minute slots.
At Beyond Health, we can take the time to review data with you. We can explore underlying mechanisms. We can pivot when needed. That’s how sustainable health happens: not through a single prescription, but through an ongoing partnership.
You’ve probably seen the ads. "Optimize your health with a custom plan." “DNA-based supplement kits.” “$50,000 executive physicals.”
But scratch beneath the surface and most of these services offer glorified templates with high-end packaging. A functional medicine protocol that’s identical for every patient. A generic macro split with your name on it. An exercise plan that doesn't account for your injuries, age, or hormonal state.
We challenge you to look deeper.
Beyond Health offers:
Our pricing isn’t built to impress. It’s built to reflect the actual time, skill, and dedication required to do this right.
If someone else is offering this same model for less—genuinely—try it. But if you're tired of cookie-cutter care dressed up in expensive language, we built this practice for you.
This practice is not for everyone.
It’s for the person who’s done with shortcuts. Who’s been let down by reactive care. Who wants real answers and is ready to do the work.
We’re here for the patient who:
We won’t promise miracles. But we will commit to walking beside you, guiding your progress, adjusting the plan when needed, and celebrating your wins. With honesty. With expertise. With integrity.

Health isn’t a product. It’s a process. And it’s time to work with a team that treats it that way.
