Hormone Replacement Therapy: Pellet Implantation

This seminar is designed for women and men who are serious about hormone optimization and ready to have a real conversation about investing in their health. Seating is limited and pre-registration is required. A $20 registration fee will be applied as a credit toward your first consultation with Dr. Patel.

Hormone pellet therapy is one of the most effective and convenient methods of hormone replacement available today — and yes, it costs more than other options. With pellet therapy typically running $500–$700 per insertion, the question patients ask us most is simple: is it actually worth it?

Join board-certified physician Dr. Raj V. Patel for an honest, no-fluff educational seminar where he breaks down everything you need to know about HRT pellets — the science, the cost, the results, and whether this approach is right for you.

Dr. Patel brings a rare combination of clinical depth and teaching expertise to this conversation. With over 52,000 patients cared for and nearly 27,000 hours of clinical experience, he has spent years on the frontlines of hormone health — not only treating patients but educating the next generation of physicians as a Clinical Assistant Professor. His background in academic medicine, combined with his specialized focus on hormone optimization at Denali East Group, makes him one of the most qualified voices in the room when it comes to understanding how hormones affect every system in your body.

At this seminar you will learn:

  • What hormone pellets are and how they work

  • How pellets compare to patches, gels, creams, and injections

  • Who makes the best candidate for pellet therapy

  • What the insertion procedure actually looks like

  • Why the cost may be justified — and when it may not be

  • How to know if your hormones are optimized or just "normal"

  • What labs you need before starting any hormone therapy

This seminar is designed for women and men who are serious about hormone optimization and ready to have a real conversation about investing in their health. This is not a casual information session — it is a focused educational evening for people who are ready to take action.

Seating is limited. Pre-registration is required.

Beyond the Prescription Pad: The Hidden Cause of Pain, Fatigue, Brain Fog, & Aging

  • Advantage Therapy Solutions Wellness Partners (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Chronic pain. Persistent fatigue. Brain fog that won't lift. Signs of aging that seem to accelerate no matter what you try. What if the common thread behind all of it is something most doctors never test for — or treat?

Join Dr. Raj Patel, board-certified physician and owner of Denali East Group Concierge Medicine & Aesthetics, and Kellie Brown, owner of Advantage Therapy Solutions, for a joint educational evening exploring chronic inflammation — and the innovative, non-traditional therapies most conventional practices never offer.

This event will cover:

  • Photobiomodulation (red light therapy) — how it works at the cellular level and its role in reducing inflammation, presented by Kellie Brown

  • Whole-body inflammation protocols using non-traditional therapeutics not typically found in standard medical practice, including peptide therapy and microdosed GLP-1 medications

  • How chronic, low-grade inflammation can drive pain, fatigue, brain fog, and accelerated aging — often undetected by standard bloodwork

  • A more comprehensive approach to identifying and addressing the root causes behind these symptoms, rather than just managing them

This isn't a typical doctor's office conversation — it's an inside look at therapies and protocols that go beyond what most prescriptions can offer.

🎁 Door prizes and light refreshments provided.

Spots are limited — reservation required to attend.

Presented by Denali East Group Concierge Medicine & Aesthetics and Advantage Therapy Solutions.

  • Who is — and isn't — a good candidate for these medications

  • Potential risks and side effects you should know before starting
