What Can I Expect During a Wellness Consultation?

Wellness care in the 21st century focuses on your physical and mental health, as well as your overall well-being. Concierge-style practices cater to patients seeking a more extensive experience with their physicians.

Bretton Powell, MD, and David Zweiback, DO, offer wellness consultations that incorporate both traditional internal medicine and functional medicine at Monarch Concierge MD – Hilton Head.

What is wellness care?

While traditional medicine mainly addresses symptoms, wellness care promotes your body’s natural ability to heal by enhancing your immune system through a range of treatments and lifestyle adjustments.

Our entire team at Monarch Concierge MD – Hilton Head supports your ongoing health goals, whether building stronger bones, implementing cutting-edge anti-aging strategies, strengthening your immunity, or gaining peace of mind through enhanced weight management.

Wellness care options

Dr. Powell and Dr. Zweiback offer a range of state-of-the-art wellness options as well as tried-and-true therapies, including:

Peptide therapy

Employing amino acid chains, the “building blocks” of proteins, peptide therapy combats aging by:

• Supporting healing
• Balancing hormones
• Reducing inflammation
• Increasing lean body mass, and beyond

Peptides may be taken by mouth, injected, or applied to your skin.

Medical weight loss

Our doctors customize your weight loss plan, offering the latest GLP-1 medications, supplements, and more, based on your individual needs.

Joint injections

These injections improve your range of motion and mobility while reducing inflammation and pain. They include:

• Cortisone shots to lessen inflammation
• Gel injections containing hyaluronic acid to relieve knee pain and arthritis
• Prolotherapy injections of concentrated sugar water (dextrin) to lower pain

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT)

HRT balances hormones that have diminished over time, due to aging and/or menopause. It helps reduce weight gain and fatigue, while improving sexual dysfunction and overall metabolism.

Aesthetic injections

Aesthetic injections include Botox®, which relaxes facial muscles, dermal fillers using gel-like substances such as hyaluronic acid, and other injectables that smooth wrinkles, reduce lines, or add volume to create a more youthful appearance.

B12 injections 

Utilized for decades to enhance energy and support better aging, B12 injections especially help patients with specific health issues, such as anemia, and those whose current levels or absorption rates remain low.

Nutrition and supplements

Our team discusses optimal nutrition plans and dietary supplements that boost energy, strengthen your immune system, and reduce your risk of health problems.

What happens during your wellness visit?

Our team creates a healing environment to help you get the most out of your wellness consultation. We review your family medical history and discuss:

• Past and current medical issues
• Surgeries
• Allergies
• Vaccinations
• Medications
• Hospitalizations

Your doctor also performs an extensive physical exam. He then formulates a health risk assessment and customized plan incorporating current and future health goals, including lifestyle recommendations related to diet, exercise, and stress levels.
