What's your Ascent?

Feel better. Perform better. Age well.

Weight management. Energy. Recovery. Healthy aging. Cognitive health. Sexual wellness.

Your goals may be different, but our approach starts in the same place: understanding you.

At Ascent Health Center, our personalized optimization programs combine comprehensive lab testing, provider guidance and individualized treatment strategies designed around your health, your goals and your body.

Peptide therapies may be one part of that plan when clinically appropriate. But we don't start with the peptide.

We start with you.

You know where you want to go.

  • Maybe you want to lose weight and protect your strength.
  • Maybe your workouts don't feel the way they used to.
  • Maybe you're tired of being tired.
  • Maybe you want to feel sharper, sleep better or bring back a little spark.
  • Or maybe you're feeling pretty good and want to stay that way for a very long time.

Whatever brought you here, your symptoms and goals are only part of the story. We look deeper at your health history, lifestyle and lab data to help create an individualized plan.

So, what's your Ascent?

Weight + Metabolic Health

THE RESET

Lose the weight. Keep the strength. Change the trajectory.

The Reset is our medically supervised weight-management program designed to look beyond the number on the scale.

We focus on body composition, metabolic health, nutrition and maintaining lean mass while helping eligible patients pursue their weight-management goals.

Treatment is individualized and may include prescription weight-management medication and other therapies when clinically appropriate.

12-week programs available.
Healthy Aging + Cellular Support

THE GLOW UP

Good health looks good on you.

The Glow Up takes beauty beyond the surface.

This 12-week optimization program focuses on healthy aging, vitality, recovery and cellular health through an individualized plan informed by your labs, history and goals.

Because looking your best is great. Feeling your best while you're doing it is even better.

Programs starting at $2,995.
Performance + Recovery

THE PEAK

Recover smarter. Come back stronger.

You don't have to be a professional athlete to care about performance.

The Peak is designed for active adults who want to support recovery, maintain strength and continue hiking, skiing, lifting, cycling, running and doing the things that make life fun.

We evaluate what's happening beneath the surface and create an individualized performance and recovery strategy based on your body and your goals.

Programs starting at $3,995.
Energy + Cellular Health

THE RECHARGE

Stop running on 12%.

Dragging through the afternoon shouldn't automatically become your new normal.

The Recharge is designed to investigate the factors that may be affecting your energy, stamina and recovery and develop an individualized plan to help support better overall health and performance.

Instead of simply telling you to sleep more or drink another cup of coffee, we look at the bigger picture.

Programs starting at $2,995.
Libido + Sexual Wellness

BOOM BOOM

Bring back the spark.

Sexual wellness is wellness.

Changes in libido and sexual function can be influenced by hormones, medications, stress, sleep, metabolic health and other factors. Boom Boom creates a private space to look at the whole picture and discuss appropriate treatment options.

No awkwardness required.

Programs individualized for women and men.
Cognitive Optimization

DIALED IN

Clearer. Sharper. More switched on.

Your brain deserves a health plan too.

Dialed In takes a personalized look at the health and lifestyle factors that can influence cognitive wellness and mental performance.

Your provider will review your goals, history and relevant health data before recommending an individualized strategy.

Programs starting at $2,695.

THERE'S MORE THAN ONE WAY UP.

Comprehensive healthy-aging and healthspan optimization.

Not sure which one fits?

You don't have to be. That's our job.

Peptides aren't the plan. You are.

There's no shortage of peptide information online.

There's considerably less information about which treatments are appropriate for you.

That's why Ascent doesn't begin by handing everyone the same "stack." We begin with your health history, goals and clinical evaluation.

When appropriate, your program may incorporate prescription medications, peptide therapies, nutrition, lifestyle recommendations and other strategies selected by your provider.

YOUR COMPREHENSIVE ASCENT MAY INCLUDE:

Comprehensive Labs

We establish baseline health data and evaluate relevant biomarkers before determining your plan.

Three Provider Visits

Meet with Dr. Julie or Dr. Bryan throughout your program to review your progress and make appropriate adjustments.

Individualized Treatment Plan

Your recommendations are based on your health, goals, history and clinical findings.

Program-Specific Treatment

When prescribed, applicable medication or peptide therapy is incorporated into your program.

Ongoing Monitoring

We don't just hand you a protocol and send you home. Your progress matters.

Don't chase someone else's optimization plan.

Find yours.

Whether your goal is losing weight, climbing another mountain, getting your energy back, feeling sharper or simply staying healthier longer, we'd love to help you understand what's possible.

WHAT'S YOUR ASCENT?

All programs require an individualized clinical assessment. Treatments, medications and peptide therapies are prescribed only when determined appropriate by a qualified healthcare provider. Individual results vary. Some compounded or peptide therapies may not be FDA-approved for specific uses; your provider will discuss applicable risks, benefits, alternatives and regulatory status.
