​Age Management Medicine acknowledges that aging is a natural process that can be optimized. You cannot stop your biological clock and there will be real challenges to overcome at various times in your individual aging process. The key is how to live out your years and meet those challenges while embodying optimal health.
Peptide Therapy 
​Peptide therapy is the targeted use of peptides to produce a specific reaction in the body. Some peptides have been shown to assist with weight loss by stimulating the breakdown of visceral fat. They may also be utilized to reduce inflammation. Some peptides stimulate the production of human growth hormone and are utilized in anti-aging therapies or to increase muscle mass. Peptides are typically administered through the skin as a subcutaneous injection. They can also be applied in a cream, a nasal spray or in oral form. Peptide infusion therapy may help regulate processes within the body. Patients with Lyme disease, chronic inflammation, autoimmune disease and other chronic degenerative diseases mat benefit from including peptides in their treatment regimen.

​At the Gilbert Family Birth Center, we have a strong group of midwives that work together as a team to provide quality care for our families. Student midwives are a part of the staff at the Gilbert Family Birth Center  as we seek to train and prepare outstanding future midwives. At each birth at least one midwife and at least one student is present to provide care and support.
