Clinical LeadDr. Michael Young, MD — Board certified family and lifestyle medicine

Who Will Prescribe Your Peptides?

Denver Wellness & Aesthetics names Dr. Michael Young as a clinical lead, with a primary specialty of Physical Therapist in CMS National Plan & Provider Enumeration System (NPPES) records. Note that Physical Therapist, in most US states, does not include independent prescription authority for compounded peptides — meaning the listed clinical lead may not be the person actually writing your prescription.

What this means for you: Before booking, ask the clinic specifically who their prescribing clinician is — the supervising MD, DO, NP, or PA who writes the peptide prescriptions. Dr. Michael Young may oversee patient care, education, or adjacent treatments (PRP, IV nutrient infusion, chiropractic care), but the actual prescribing provider is the person whose license number, NPI, and signature appear on your prescription. You can verify any clinician’s license at the CMS NPPES Registry and your state’s medical board’s online lookup.

Is Denver Wellness & Aesthetics the right fit for you?

✓ Choose Denver Wellness & Aesthetics if:

  • You’re in or willing to travel to Littleton — peptide therapy generally requires in-person consultation and ongoing follow-ups.
  • You want a physician-led practice (MD/DO).
  • You want one of the most comprehensive peptide menus in the metro — this listing ranks #3 out of 10 we’ve reviewed locally.

✗ Look elsewhere if:

  • You need to start treatment within the same week. Most peptide programs require baseline labs (1-3 days) plus pharmacy fulfillment (a few more days) before your first dose — plan on 1-3 weeks from consult call to first injection.
  • You’re shopping primarily on price and need per-compound rates published up front. Most clinics share specific pricing only on the consult call. Use our cost calculator above for ballpark estimates and confirm specifics with the clinic.
  • You want a clinic that publicly states its 503A or 503B compounding pharmacy — this listing doesn’t disclose sourcing.

What to Expect at Your First Denver Wellness & Aesthetics Appointment

  1. Initial consultation / intake — typically 30–60 minutes reviewing medical history, goals, current medications, and prior labs.
  2. Baseline lab work — most clinics require labs before prescribing growth-hormone secretagogues (CJC-1295/Ipamorelin, Sermorelin) and GLP-1s (semaglutide, tirzepatide), since those compounds modulate endocrine and metabolic pathways. Tissue-repair peptides (BPC-157, TB-500), sexual-wellness peptides (PT-141), and topical compounds are sometimes prescribed without labs. This listing doesn’t explicitly state lab requirements, so confirm on your consult call which panels they require for your specific protocol. Even when labs aren’t strictly required, they’re a smart personal baseline. See our guide to peptide therapy lab work for what to ask about.
  3. Protocol design — based on what’s published, your provider may select from: BPC-157, CJC-1295, Ipamorelin, Sermorelin or IGF-1. Final selection depends on your goals, lab results, and any contraindications.
  4. Prescription written + sent to compounding pharmacy — The clinic doesn’t publicly state its 503A or 503B sourcing, so confirm fulfillment timing on your consult call (in-state-only vs. nationwide; compounded-after-Rx vs. pre-batched).
  5. Self-administration training — for injectable peptides, the clinic walks you through subcutaneous injection technique, needle handling, refrigeration, and rotation sites.
  6. Follow-up — typically a 4–6 week check-in to assess response, side effects, and whether dose or compound needs adjustment.

Most Denver Wellness & Aesthetics patients report the consult-to-first-injection window runs 1–3 weeks depending on lab turnaround and pharmacy fulfillment.

What to Ask on Your Denver Wellness & Aesthetics Consult Call

The questions below are pulled from the gaps in this specific listing — areas the clinic doesn’t publicly answer that you should clarify before booking. Each one is designed to get you a useful answer in 30 seconds or less.

  • “Which of your peptides is most commonly prescribed for my goals?” Helps you understand whether the clinic’s expertise matches what you’re trying to achieve.
  • “Is your compounding pharmacy 503A or 503B, and which specific pharmacy do you use?” The class affects whether your prescription is custom-compounded (503A) or pre-batched (503B), and whether they can ship across state lines.
  • “How long has the clinical lead been prescribing peptides specifically?” A long medical career doesn’t always mean long peptide-specific experience — those are different track records.
  • “Which lab panels do you require for the protocol you’d recommend for me?” Clinics typically require baseline labs for hormone-modulating compounds (semaglutide, tirzepatide, growth-hormone secretagogues) and may skip them for some tissue-repair or topical compounds. Knowing your clinic’s specific lab requirements helps you compare to peers — and even when not required, baseline labs are smart personal protection.
  • “What’s the total first-month cost — consult fee, labs, and initial prescription combined?” First-month all-in is usually 1.5–2× the recurring monthly cost. Ask for an itemized breakdown.
  • “Is follow-up telehealth-friendly, or are in-person visits required at every milestone?” The listing doesn’t mention telehealth — important to know if you travel or move.
  • “From my consult to my first injection, how long is the typical timeline?” Lab turnaround + pharmacy fulfillment usually means 1–3 weeks. Confirms expectations.

What Colorado Peptide Patients Are Likely Asking

Themes drawn from HealingMaps editorial analysis of verified Colorado peptide clinics in our directory. Refreshed quarterly; percentages rounded to nearest 5%.

Which peptides do most Colorado clinics actually offer?

Across Colorado peptide clinics in our directory, CJC-1295 appears in 100% of listings; Ipamorelin in 100%; Sermorelin in 100%; BPC-157 in 30%. Compounds appearing in fewer than 20% of Colorado listings — including IGF-1, Thymosin Alpha-1, GHK-Cu — are less commonly disclosed; patients seeking those should specifically ask whether the clinic prescribes them.

How transparent are Colorado clinics about their compounding pharmacy?

10% of Colorado clinics in our directory openly state whether they use a 503A or 503B compounding pharmacy. The rest leave the class unstated. The distinction matters for patients — 503A pharmacies fill prescriptions individually after your provider writes them (typically a few-day wait, in-state shipping), while 503B outsourcing facilities pre-batch under direct FDA inspection (often supporting same-visit fulfillment and direct-to-home shipping). Worth asking specifically before you book.

Who’s actually prescribing peptides in Colorado?

50% of verified Colorado clinics name an MD or DO as clinical lead (this listing’s clinical lead is Physical Therapist-trained). The remainder are NP/PA-led or don’t publicly name a specific prescribing clinician. Any state-licensed physician, NP, or PA can legitimately prescribe compounded peptides — but knowing your prescriber’s training and tenure helps you assess fit for your specific protocol.

How deep are Colorado peptide menus typically?

The median Colorado clinic in our directory publishes 3 specific peptide compounds on its listing. The deepest disclosed menu names 9; every clinic names at least one compound. A wide menu means more options at one clinic; a narrow menu can reflect specialization (e.g. weight-loss-only programs) or limited public disclosure (the clinic prescribes more than it advertises).

Pharmacy sourcing: This clinic doesn’t state its 503A or 503B compounding pharmacy partner. The class affects how your prescription is fulfilled — custom-compounded with in-state shipping (503A) versus pre-batched with broader shipping including direct-to-home delivery (503B) — so it’s worth asking before starting any compounded protocol.

How we vetted this clinic

Denver Wellness & Aesthetics’s named prescriber is verifiable in the CMS National Plan & Provider Enumeration System — the highest single trust signal we look for. The clinic names 5 specific peptide compounds — including BPC-157, CJC-1295, and Ipamorelin. What’s not publicly stated: which pharmacy class (503A vs 503B) handles compounding. Worth asking on your consult call. See our full vetting rubric →
