During her years in midwifery, Dr. Rachel Smith developed a deep understanding of the challenges women face as they move through midlife, when careers peak, families grow, responsibilities multiply, and the body’s physiology begins to shift. While leading a medical weight management program, she noticed a pattern: many women were doing everything “right,” yet their energy, confidence, and metabolism were quietly slipping away.
“I met so many women who felt like strangers in their own bodies,” Rachel shares. “They were smart, capable, and driven, but perimenopause and metabolic shifts were changing the rules. I knew hormonal and metabolic optimization had to be part of the solution.”
That realization became the foundation of Aspect Wellness, a concierge medical practice designed for individuals who want more than quick fixes, they want longevity, vitality, and a high-performance life. Rachel blends advanced medical training with personalized coaching and a luxury-level experience, creating a space where patients feel seen, supported, and empowered.
Aspect Wellness offers a comprehensive suite of services, including evidence-based medical weight loss, hormone optimization for men and women, precision lab testing, and high-touch lifestyle and mindset coaching. The practice attracts driven professionals who want to feel strong, focused, and fully alive through midlife and beyond.
“With our medical weight loss and longevity programs, we look at the entire physiology,” Rachel says. “We evaluate advanced labs, sleep patterns, stress response, and nutrition. When appropriate, we use FDA-approved medications to support appetite and metabolic regulation—and pair that with structured coaching, accountability, and a customized plan. It’s about transforming how you feel from the inside out.”
For many, the result is more than a change in weight, it’s a change in life. Patients report improved metabolic health, renewed confidence, and the ability to move through the world with more ease, strength, and joy. As vitality returns, so does the freedom to travel, pursue passions, and build a lifestyle that feels deeply aligned with who they want to be.
“It’s about designing a body and life that support your biggest dreams,” Rachel says. “None of us get forever, but we do get the chance to optimize the years we have. Through ideal nutrition, strength, stress mastery, and hormone balance, we can create a long, strong, extraordinary middle chapter.”
