Functional Medicine & Health Optimization

Elise Clark Health

I’m Elise Clark, nurse practitioner, and I am so glad you are here! I specialize in functional medicine, which means I look at the whole person and dig deep to find the true causes of any issues you may be having. I have a passion for educating patients about their bodies and what their individual needs are. I provide custom treatment plans for each patient and aim to provide a realistic approach to a more functional lifestyle. I am currently practicing in Texas and Colorado in a telemedicine capacity. I am a wife and mom to two little boys and value my family more than anything! I truly feel blessed to work in this field and be able to share my passion with others.

Background & Experience

I have been in the nursing field for over 15 years with the majority of that being as a nurse practitioner. I found my way into functional medicine after gaining experience in family practice and endocrinology. I realized there was more I could be doing for patients than what the traditional model offered and I wanted to truly help people. I have been in the functional space for almost 10 years and have extensive experience with hormones, thyroid issues, female issues, gut health, nutrient deficiencies, and overall health optimization.
