Learn more about our Wellness programs
The Serenity Executive Wellness Program is for people who have struggled unsuccessfully to lose weight. It’s for people with chronic medical issues that, with proper treatment, could be controlled, such as high blood pressure, prediabetes, and high cholesterol. It’s for people who simply don’t feel like themselves anymore due to low libido, low energy levels, or a myriad of symptoms that arise when the body is not functioning optimally.
This unique, 6 month program is designed specifically for people ready to make big changes, but who want the support and guidance of a team of experts to make it happen. The Serenity Executive Wellness Program is more than just provider visits; it’s an approach to managing your health that puts an entire team of medical experts in your corner.
How it Works
We start with an in-depth analysis of where you are today. Based on your medical history and your goals, you’ll undergo a series of sophisticated and comprehensive tests to assess your current hormonal balance, your nutritional status, your stress levels and your risk for chronic disease.
Lab Evaluation
Based on your symptoms we may check:
Sex hormones(estrogen, progesterone, testosterone)
Stress hormones (cortisol, DHEA)
Metabolism (blood sugar metabolism and hunger regulation hormones)
Thyroid hormones
Complete blood count
Kidney and liver function
Vitamin D levels
As needed, we may also conduct the following innovative tests:
Comprehensive digestive analysis
Food sensitivity testing
Evaluation of nutritional status
Body composition analysis (body fat/muscle mass)
Markers that may predict future health risks. This may include tests such as:
Genomic testing for inherited risk factors
Inflammatory markers
Advanced cardiovascular risk factors
Estrogen metabolism for cancer risk
Nutrition Assessment
We’ll conduct a complete nutritional assessment and prepare a dietary plan. This is done to help meet weight loss goals (when appropriate), but also to address medical issues affected by your diet and digestion. Conditions like joint pain, mood swings, chronic digestive symptoms, high blood sugar, high cholesterol and high blood pressure can all be impacted by the food you eat, and how it’s digested.
Your Plan
Once all of the analysis is complete, we’ll compile a personalized wellness program to meet your goals and address any current health issues and symptoms. This includes our medical weight loss program or specialized nutrition program, hormone pellet therapy where appropriate, stress management counseling, and a tailored regimen of pharmaceutical grade vitamins and supplements. Then together, we’ll get to work.
After reviewing your personalized plan, you’ll work together with your team. During this time, you’ll have regular access to your team including visits with the clinician and your health coach. (Check ups and monitoring can take place in the office or via telehealth based on your needs.) This ongoing monitoring helps us to address more issues simultaneously and adapt your program as needed, so that you can see results more quickly.
Labs will be repeated to assess your progress as needed. At the conclusion of your program we will work with you to decide on an ongoing course of treatment to keep you on your path to a healthier you.

This 3 month program is designed for those patients who are working hard today to ensure they will live a healthy tomorrow.
How it Works
After gaining a complete understanding of your medical history, and what you’re doing today to stay fit, we’ll begin looking for areas where we can improve your already healthy lifestyle. We’ll take a focused look at how your body is performing, and search for any areas that can be improved.

Body composition analysis (body fat/muscle mass)

You’ll receive customized health recommendations that include your test results and your personalized wellness plan.
During your program, you’ll check in monthly with your team. At the end of the program lab tests will be repeated. You’ll have another in-depth appointment during which your progress will be discussed and we will update your wellness plan to help you stay well.
