How We Are Different

You know deep down that something isn’t right because you’re still struggling with your health, but you’re told “everything is normal.”

Traditional healthcare leaves many people feeling frustrated and underserved. You can spend half the day driving to an appointment and sitting in the waiting room, have a rushed, 10-minute appointment and leave without the answers you seek.  

That’s why we started Vital Energy. We want to give you more than a quick visit and a temporary fix. Our goal is for you to feel your absolute best, not just “normal.”

We remove the typical barriers in modern healthcare so that you can fully invest in your health. This allows us to take a personalized, whole-body approach that goes beyond treating symptoms. By focusing on the root causes, we offer individualized care through advanced weight loss, hormone therapy, and custom wellness plans. Our goal is to provide compassionate, expert guidance that enhances your energy, health, and quality of life.

I can’t say enough about how incredible my experience with Vital Energy Medical, LLC has been. Since starting their program and working closely with Rachel, I feel amazing. My energy levels have skyrocketed, allowing me to do things I hadn’t been able to in years. My mood has significantly improved, and I finally feel like myself again. It’s astonishing how many aspects of your life can be affected when your body is out of balance. Thanks to Rachel, I am now living a much happier, healthier life. I highly recommend Vital Energy Medical to anyone seeking a positive change in their health and well-being!

As a 39-year-old man, I realized that I needed to make some significant changes in my lifestyle to become healthier. As I embarked on my fitness journey, I began to pay more attention to my body than ever before. Despite losing weight, I had very little sex drive, lacked motivation and energy, and found it difficult to build muscle. I was unsure of what was wrong, but I knew that something was off. After conducting some research, I came across Rachel at Vital Energy Medical. Rachel has been incredibly thorough with my symptoms, listening to me carefully and analyzing my blood work. Her communication has been excellent, and she has been very supportive throughout the entire process. I was initially nervous about the treatment, but Rachel was there to guide me every step of the way and make me feel comfortable. Thanks to Rachel's treatment plan, my life has changed entirely. I have more energy, strength, and focus than I ever had. As I approach my 40s, I feel better than ever before.
