About Hormone Wellness MD
Hormone Wellness MD uses Functional Medicine tools to identify and heal imbalance at its source. We evaluate how the complex interplay of stress, thyroid and sex hormones work together with your gut and detox systems to affect your overall health. We use both bioidentical hormones and non hormonal solutions like herbs and supplements. Your active participation coupled with our wisdom and expertise will create, restore, and maintain health.
Our Core Values Of Care
An Integrative Approach
Our mission is rooted in a respectful collaboration between doctor and patient. Through this partnership, you will be empowered with knowledge and expertise to restore your health. Guided by Dr. Watson, you will embark on a holistic approach to health, including smart lifestyle modifications that will significantly improve your wellbeing and symptoms.
Dedicated Attention
You’ll receive dedicated attention from Dr. Watson. Our practice will be limited to hundreds of patients, not thousands, usually under a single GYN doctors care. This allows us to get to know you better and give you the time you deserve. We partner with health coaches and nutritionists to support you on your journey. During your exploratory consultation, you will meet with Dr. Watson to chart the course for your care.
Personalized Care
Each woman has her own story to tell. Dr. Watson will really listen to your story. Together, we will discover the root cause of your dis-ease. If needed, we will use cutting edge diagnostic tests to evaluate gut health and hormone metabolism that your current doctor may not even know about. We will explore your situation holistically, uncovering mediators in your home, at work, and your mental state to arrive at a “lifestyle prescription” that puts you back on the road to health.
Innovative Treatments
Did you know that it takes on average 17 years for clinical breakthroughs to make their way into the standard of care? At Hormone Wellness MD, Dr. Watson is deeply committed to shortening that lag. All our staff are life-long learners, continuously upgrading their wisdom through sharing best practices and seeking out innovative, out-of-the-box ideas to help our patients achieve their health goals.
Root Cause Resolution
Unlike traditional Western Medicine, Dr. Watson always focuses on root cause resolution – isolating key imbalances that are responsible for virtually all symptoms you’re experiencing right now. Also known as functional medicine, together we will find real, sustainable solutions, not more bandaids to cover up the symptoms (or treating side effects of drugs with even more drugs).
Co-Creating Health
Just like your gut bacteria thrive on symbiotic, mutually beneficial relationships, your desired health outcome is much easier to achieve through the power of community. Hormone Wellness MD leverages group classes for patient education, peer-to-peer support, and accountability – with both your care Dr. Watson and your fellow patients rooting for your success.
