Why Summit Peak Wellness
A prescription is not a plan.
Summit Peak connects medical care, real-life habits, objective measurement, and ongoing reassessment—so you can feel better now and stay strong for what comes next.
Support fat loss. Monitor muscle.
GLP-1 medication may be one tool when appropriate. Body composition, nutrition, strength support, side-effect monitoring, and maintenance planning create a more complete approach.
Menopause is more than hormones.
Care connects symptoms, sleep, mood, metabolism, muscle, bone, heart, and sexual health—not just a prescription.
Measure what is changing.
Body composition, strength, fitness, balance, labs, symptoms, and reassessment show what is improving and what needs to change.
One provider who knows you.
You work with Holly throughout your care—not a rotating clinician, an anonymous prescriber, or a chatbot.

Where to begin
Three ways to begin.
Every journey starts with understanding where you are now. Choose the path that fits what you are looking for today.
Entry path 1
Summit Peak Healthspan Assessment
Who it is for
For those navigating weight changes, menopause, low energy, sleep, stress, strength, metabolic wellness, or healthy-aging goals.
What you receive
A 60–75 minute clinician evaluation, objective body-composition and performance measurements, and a personalized 90-day plan with clear priorities and first actions.
Next step
Book your Healthspan Assessment visit.
Entry path 2
Aesthetic Consultation
Who it is for
For those interested in Botox, skin quality, microneedling, medical facials, dermaplaning, chemical peels, or a long-term skin plan.
What you receive
A focused skin consultation with a personalized, natural-looking plan based on your goals, preferences, timeline, and budget.
Next step
Book your aesthetic consultation visit.
Entry path 3
Wellness Programs & App
Who it is for
For adults seeking structured wellness education, habits and accountability through a self-guided app or a focused cohort program.
What you receive
A structured wellness pathway with clear actions, accountability, progress tracking, and a defined timeline — supported in the app, with clinical care handled separately through SimplePractice.
Next step
Explore program inclusions. New medical patients begin with the Healthspan Assessment; wellness-only enrollment does not require a medical assessment.
New medical patients begin with the $495 Summit Peak Healthspan Assessment. “Comprehensive Wellness Assessment” refers to this same visit. The Active for Life Performance Assessment focuses on physical capability and has its own inclusions. Aesthetics, recovery and wellness-only programs can be booked separately.
A condensed preview of coordinated care
Your results become a plan for real life.
Your goals, assessment, medical care and daily habits belong in one coordinated plan. You leave knowing what matters, what to do first, and how we will review your progress.
Why a coordinated plan matters
Clear priorities: three starting actions make a broad goal manageable, so you know what to do tomorrow.
Care that fits together: nutrition and recovery are considered alongside exercise and treatment, so recommendations fit your ability, symptoms and schedule.
Follow-through with purpose: reviewing symptoms, strength and everyday function together helps identify what to continue, simplify or change.
Fictional educational example. This is not a patient story, a testimonial, or a promise of results. Your measures, actions and follow-up are individualized.
Condensed fictional 90-day roadmap
Hike three miles with my family.
A brief preview. A much more detailed plan for you.
This condensed, fictional example shows how the pieces fit together. Your actual clinician-reviewed plan is substantially more detailed and personalized: relevant assessment findings, ranked priorities, a practical weekly schedule, specific exercise instructions and starting levels, nutrition guidance, sleep and stress actions, progression guidance, and agreed measures and timing for reassessment.
Each recommendation connects to your goals and starting point, so you understand what to do, why it matters, and how progress will be reviewed. The detail is organized into clear first steps so you can get started without feeling overwhelmed. Plan content and follow-up services depend on your assessment and selected service.
How your plan connects
One goal. Connected actions. A clear review.
Fictional overview · Selected highlights
- Starting point: Your assessment identifies which capabilities and daily habits deserve attention for your hiking goal.
- First priorities: Build confidence on uneven ground, develop climbing endurance, and support recovery.
- Movement + nutrition: Your strength and walking actions fit alongside practical fueling and nutrition guidance, so both support the same goal.
- Sleep + stress: Your recovery actions fit your routine and help make the movement and nutrition plan manageable.
- Weekly rhythm + progression: Your private plan sets out what to do across the week, where to start, and how to adjust as your ability and tolerance change.
- Review + reassessment: Agreed measures and the real-life hiking goal guide what to continue, adjust, or prioritize next.
This overview illustrates the connections within a plan. Your full plan is prepared for you after assessment, with individualized instructions and clinician review. Clinical treatment, when appropriate, is addressed through your clinical care service.
Reassess around day 90: repeat appropriate baseline measures, compare the same real-life activity, and adjust the next plan. Reassessment visits and testing depend on your purchased service; they are not automatically included with every assessment.
What you take home: your goal, relevant starting measures, one to three starting habits, practical instructions and an agreed follow-up plan. Wellness app tools can support daily habits; medical decisions and clinical communication stay with your clinician through the clinical care system. App access, visits and testing vary by service.
