FEELING FLABBY, FATIGUED OR FORGETFUL?
Many conventional doctors often rely on standard lab tests as dictated by health insurance.
When these tests come back within a certain range, they might declare your cholesterol or hormone levels as "normal."
Yet "normal" ranges are based on averages from a broad population, healthy or not.
This means you could be at the higher or lower end of the "normal" spectrum – yet still experience symptoms and a higher risk profile.
Without advanced lab testing, it's impossible to identify your true risk profile and what hidden stressors are draining your energy, performance and resilience... like gut & hormone imbalances or nutrient deficiencies!
Finally, let me ask you an important question...
If you're on all sorts of medications, do you feel any better? Are they actually working?
If the answer is "not really"... then this may indicate that you haven't fully addressed all the hidden stressors that are sabotaging peak health & performance.
So if you'd love to wean off medications, if you're wondering what might sabotage peak health, then take the short quiz!

"Can’t say enough about Dr. Lastname and his exceptional team. I just completed a year as a practice member and I feel fantastic. I have learned so much about healthy eating and continue to get compliments on how great I look and my positive energy. While the weight loss has been slow, about 30 pounds over the past year, my clothes fit so much better and I love how trim my waist feels!! What’s more is that my energy is finally back and now I can work out on a regular basis without feeling wiped out after".

"Several years ago, my primary physician recommended Dr. Lastname for a problem I was having. I've been back for various ailments over the years; each of which is met with a focused approach resulting in the desired result. Add in great conversation and a genuine caring attitude - truly a winning combination. I have recommended him many times to my friends."

Gretchen Reis, M.D. is a physician specializing in bioidentical hormone therapy and the Medical Director of Integrity Wellness MD in Charlotte. Dr. Reis went to college at the University of Wisconsin, and then earned her MD at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston. She completed a residency in Family Medicine in Lancaster, Pennsylvania and then went into private practice.
Although she was passionate about working with her patients to achieve optimal wellness, she grew frustrated with how difficult that was with the traditional healthcare system’s focus on pharmaceuticals. She transitioned out of her solo family medicine practice in Ohio to start a functional medicine practice in Charlotte. She now addresses health from a whole-body perspective and uses bioidentical hormones to help optimize overall health.
Dr. Reis and her husband Bill have 4 children whom they fostered and then adopted, including their youngest who has nonverbal autism.
HERE'S WHAT MOST PEOPLE DON'T KNOW...
Your hormones can be in range... but not be optimal. The "normal range" is just based on an average of people (healthy or not). If you find yourself towards the lower or higher end, your hormones aren't in the optimal range. That's why we go beyond standard lab tests to find out why your hormones are imbalanced... checking other values that standard labs often miss. Take the first step to reclaim your vitality, and take the short quiz!
Without proper nutrition, your body can't make vital hormones. Most people, even healthier eaters, have nutrient deficiencies due to stress, gut issues, toxic exposure and taking medications. Using an integrative approach, we first evaluate all possible root causes of hormone dysfunction – including possible nutrient deficiencies and factors that drain your batteries. And if your body doesn’t have the raw materials it needs your hormones simply can’t function the way they should.
Gut imbalances frequently turn into hormonal imbalances! Gut imbalances like reflux, leaky gut, or bacterial overgrowth can disrupt testosterone, cortisol, and thyroid levels. Trying to fix hormones without addressing gut health first often backfires. We see it all the time: men struggling with fatigue, low drive, or poor results on TRT because the root cause is actually in the gut. Before jumping into hormone therapy, it’s critical to fix what’s happening in your gut.
HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT...
Do you feel like you've literally tried "everything" when it comes to your chronic health issues?
It's unfortunate that 97% of Americans don't know that there are natural solutions to address their chronic symptoms without toxic drugs or surgery. And that's why I am offering a free session where you can find out where you might be deficient and how to fix the problem once and for all...
You can't make new decisions without new information, and we'd love to fill in the blanks for you during that free session.
You may be wondering why this call is free and whether we are trying to sell you something since other health practitioners don't offer free discovery call, right?
In our practice, we focus on the root cause solution so that we can actually heal you and transform your health. So yes, we are trying to sell you on the fact that you deserve vibrant health and that it's possible for you to finally heal (even if you've literally tried everything).
However, we don't want to waste your time or your money. If you don't see this as a worthy investment, then this is likely not for you. And that's why we don't start with a paid appointment; we want to first make sure that we can help you. You can't make a decision without having all the information, right?
"I can't spend that kind of money. I am on a fixed income and have only limited resources."
Believe me, we hear that a lot, and here's what we told Janine, a 48-year-old single mother:
"Let's assume you could get back to vibrant health within a year, waking up refreshed, without aches and pains, with steady energy throughout the day, a clear and sharp mind, ready to tackle anything the day may bring." What would that be worth to you?
We have different payment options for our services, and you can use your insurance for any covered lab tests and medications. We have lots of clients on a fixed income!
"I've been to so many doctors and specialists yet nobody seems to have an answer. How do I know this will work for me?" The basic question is, can we help everyone? And the answer is NO.
• If you're looking for a quick fix, a magic pill, then this isn't for you.
• If you're not open to new ideas or willing to actively participate in your care, then this isn't for you either.
But we can help most people.
• If you're looking for a natural approach to finally resolve your chronic health issues for good...
• If you're ready to address the root cause that's been keeping you stuck...then you're in the right place
That's the reason why we are offering this free session: so that we can chat about what you've already tried, what worked, and what didn't work, so we can quickly see whether we can even help you.
It's very simple. Click on the button below and enter your information to apply for a free call with our team.
As it turns out, we do not accept insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid, but we will provide a Superbill that you can submit to your insurance. Also, certain items are HSA/FSA eligible expenses.
If you're located nearby, we're happy to see you in person, but it's not necessary. We do prefer that your initial consultation be in person, but can do telemedicine for those located in NC, SC or TX.
Yes, most of the lab tests can be billed to insurance just like if you were to go to any other provider. For those without insurance, we offer substantially discounted self-pay rates.
