Restore balance.

Rethink Health.

Physician-led care for people who want to understand their metabolism, hormones, and health — not just manage symptoms or chase diets.

Based on The Balance Method — a physician-developed framework for sustainable health beyond dieting and reactive medicine.

A small, membership-based practice focused on clarity, continuity, and long-term health.

Is Balance MD right for you?

  • This practice is for you if…

    • You’ve tried diets, medications, or programs and want to understand why your body responds the way it does

    • You value a physician who thinks in systems, not just symptoms

    • You’re interested in metabolism, hormones, and long-term health — not quick fixes

    • You’re looking for ongoing care, not one-off visits

    • You’re comfortable with a membership-based model focused on continuity and clarity

  • This practice may not be the best fit if…

    • You’re looking for a quick prescription without deeper evaluation

    • You prefer transactional, visit-by-visit care

    • You want a program focused only on weight loss or aesthetics

    • You’re seeking urgent or same-day medical care

    • You’re not interested in a longer-term, educational approach to health

Balance MD is intentionally small.
We work best with patients who value understanding, consistency, and thoughtful care.

A Concierge Approach to Wellness

We accept a select number of clients, allowing us to focus on delivering extraordinary medical care. Enjoy a more direct relationship with a board-certified physician dedicated to improving your health. Our goal is not to treat symptoms, but to restore more optimal health.

Balance is a lifestyle. As we restore our body’s balance, we restore more optimal health. As Dr. Bryant likes to say, “there is no better health than a body in balance.

Yet the goal of achieving balance applies not only to our physical health, but to our total well-being. It is a lifestyle that involves physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual.

FAQS

How do you differ from other physician services?

In addition to a focus on optimum health rather than managing illness, we offer amore direct physician relationship. We have a small, select client panel, allowing individualized approach, and allowing us to dedicate more attention to each client. Our clients have the option of direct physician access, combined with the approach to optimum health.

What type of wellness or anti-aging services do you provide?

In addition to optimizing nutrition and metabolism, we often recommend bio-identical hormone therapy for women and men. The goal is optimum health, sobalancing both nutritional status and hormones can be quite valuable. We help optimize hormone levels, whether estrogen, progesterone, or testosterone, and of course optimizing thyroid and insulin resistance. Our clients can attest to the many benefits. Some clients may be interested in stem cell therapy orregenerative medicine as well.

Do you accept my insurance?

Our services are covered by a membership subscription or fees for individual services. Our clients still benefit from having insurance to cover services outside of our clinic, including lab testing or hospitalization.
