Dr. Olson evaluates, manages, and provides first and second opinions on all endocrine issues. The main focus is an integrative, whole-person, approach to endocrine conditions focused on thyroid, calcium and parathyroid and metabolism issues, disease prevention, and change of life hormonal transition and metabolic changes that affecting health, and aging. A whole-person Mind-Body-Spirit approach on healing and prevention through lifestyle, diet, gut health, and personal coaching is used. This is not a routine or conventional endocrinology practice, if you want to just fix problem such as thyroid replacement, osteoporosis treatment, or routine thyroid cancer or diabetes care there are other great endocrinologists around to take care of these issues and who accept commercial insurances.

Since Covid-19 pandemic we have the capacity to provide virtual consultations. In addition to connecting to her established patients and new patients, Dr. Olson also provides one-time or second opinion consultations to individuals seeking more clarity or understanding on complex or confusing issues about endocrine-medical care. Sometimes it is useful to get an additive perspective from a medically trained specialist. This empowers patients to be better informed and work better with their own primary care or specialty care physicians.

These are separate programs for high achieving women who value self growth and want to reach higher potential in health and wellness domains. This is not an office or patient consultation. Starting 2023-24, Individual coaching opportunity will be offered as a 4 session/month experience. Dr. Olson will also start providing one to two, 3-4 month on-line programs over the year for 6-12 women, per session, who want to work together as a group to transform health, relationships, lose weight, and feel truly well in their bodies & empowered in their lives. Each participant of the cohort group will have a private session with Dr. Beatriz and 9-12 weekly group sessions over the 3-4 months depending on the program.

Dr. Olson believes that stress, mind-body issues, and past traumatic events affect health and healing, the immune and endocrine systems, and how you age. She encourages mindfulness-based stress reduction training, gut and hormone health assessment for all, and counseling if needed.

Testimonials

I have been your patient for decades. Over the years no other physician has found answers to my medical problems like you have. You usually know what is wrong, if you don’t know the answer, you order the tests to find answers.

By being your patient over the years I have learned to embrace the power within me to shape my life, making informed choices every day, from eating to sleeping but mostly granting myself permission to choose happiness! It feels good to “feel good”!
