I visited the new Cleveland location and had the best experience with Brittany and Laura and Houston were very polite and helpful. 10/10
The staff is great and I really like the Cold Plunge, Sauna, Compression and Red Light Therapy l!!
They are really good at taking care of your needs. Actually listen to your concerns and address them. It shows how much they really care for you as there patient
The staff at Optimize U are simply amazing! Josh paid great attention to my concerns and has me on a path to feeling better than I’ve felt in years. I highly recommend them for anyone looking to improve their overall health.
I have been going here about a year and a half. I have had such great results and they are always so helpful. Appointments are super easy and I love that I can just get a phone call for updates. It’s great having peace of mind knowing how all of my levels are and making adjustments as needed.
I was at a very low point when I started Optimize U. I felt so hopeless and lost since being put, unexpectedly, into surgical menopause. I felt like the life I knew was over. But now I LOVE life! Laura makes me feel seen and understood for the first time since my surgery. The amount of compassion and kindness is astounding. Optimize U has saved me and my journey with them is just getting started. Everyone I have encountered there has been wonderful and I am so grateful I found Optimize U. If you are struggling please give them a try because you will not regret it!
Had a great time. Will certainly be going back. Staff very friendly and funny
I cannot say enough great things about Optimize U Hormone Clinic! The quality of care is truly exceptional. They take the time to understand your unique health needs and create a completely customized plan tailored just for you. You’re not just another patient here, Optimize U truly becomes your provider, taking into account every detail to help you optimize your health and well-being.On top of their outstanding medical care, being a member of Optimize U comes with amazing perks like access to their facility’s infrared sauna and cold plunge. These wellness features are a fantastic side benefit, and I’ve noticed a big difference in how I feel since using them regularly.If you’re looking for a place that treats you as a whole person and goes above and beyond to help you reach your optimal health, Optimize U is it! Highly recommend! ❤️
A very Friendly caring staff! Great job on taking my blood. Didn’t feel a thing. Always on time and very efficient and helpful with any questions I have. Would highly recommend!
The staff at Optimize U is professional and excels in making sure that you are the best version of yourself!
Very friendly, willing to take time with you to explain everything. Follow up calls
The best place for TRT and recovery services. The staff is above and beyond friendly and inviting. They're very prompt with communication both phone and text. It's always a great experience when I'm able to get in the office for a recovery session, either cold plunge or compression; both extremely beneficial options. I can't say enough great things about this place and the people that work there. After years of wasting time and money with the medical industry and insurance to get nowhere, Optimize U offered an affordable solution that's got me to where I needed to be this whole time, helping me get closer and closer to my goal of optimal health.My only knock so to speak would be the recovery services accessibility is only during business hours, which are M-F 9-5. If they could have like access cards to the recovery services or minimal staffed recovery services only hours in the evening and weekends, THAT would be ideal.Thanks, OU
I’ve never felt as good as I do since using optimize! They are always so friendly and understanding and helpful not to mention they value my time. Never keep me waiting!!
Life changing! I am off 2 meds, working on off Ambien. I feel stronger, sleep 9 hrs instead of 3, sex life improvement big time! Everyone truly cares. My hips don't hurt anymore. My body has been fed! Thank you!
Josh Porter and Brittany Murphy are very informative. All the staff is pleasant and helpful. Excited for all the positive changes! I am so thankful for Optimize U
Very knowledgeable staff. Answered every question I had. Justin anticipated my needs and educated me on how things work. Highly recommend him.
I have been enjoying the care and services of the Chattanooga/Hixson Optimize U family for about 2 months now. I feel “heard”, and comfortable no matter which location I am at, which is why I refer to them as “family”. The impact on my overall well being has been significant! It’s a relief to feel more like “me” again! This has become my Happy Place!
Laura really is smart, personable and up on the new things. Best place for hormone management!!
Laura is very knowledgeable about hormone therapy, weight loss and thyroid function. She is always very patient to listen and provides the best treatment!
If investing in yourself is your interest Optimize U was a Fantastic experience.
Always professional and inviting. The quality of life treatments are excellent!
Amazingly helpful test and information every woman over 45 would greatly appreciate and benefit from. Josh and the team are efficient, knowledgeable and friendly.
Very informative to help make good choices for my journey to get healthy and just generally feel good. The best is yet to come!
I had a consult with Justin at the Hixson Location after my initial labs. He was very knowledgeable and made discussing some of those uncomfortable subjects much easier. You definitely have a great team of cheerleaders that want to see people succeed. I can't wait to utilize some of the extra services such as cold plunge therapy and Red light therapy as additional tools to get me where I want to be!
Absolutely love Optimize U - Chattanooga! The staff is incredibly friendly and make you feel welcome. Josh explained everything so well, and I left without having any questions unanswered. I would recommend Optimize U to just anyone!!
Always prompt and courteous.great staff and great help with all my needs
Super helpful, professional,I am very happy with the care I've received and how much the quality of my life has improved
Josh and the team at Optimize U have quite literally changed my life. I’m an endurance athlete and I suddenly started gaining weight and suffering from low energy. I spent almost a year trying to get help from traditional providers, and kept being told everything was “normal”. During this time I gained 50 pounds and my athletic performance deteriorated. Josh listened to my symptoms and combined them with diagnostics to help truly uncover what was wrong. During our 2 years working together, I’ve not only lost all the weight, but I am feeling healthier than ever and as a result my race performances have been better than they were even before all of this started happening. I cannot thank Josh enough for his measured approach to help uncover what was truly wrong and have a plan to help me reclaim my life. If you are on the fence, I highly recommend giving Josh and team a chance. They could change your life!
I have only had 2 interactions at Optimize U but both have been exceptional. Cannot speak well enough about Laura and I have only just met her. This is how healthcare should be! Go here if you want genuine help with no conditions!!
My experience at Optimize U has been life changing in the best way possible. I have lost over 70 pounds in my time as a patient but it is so much more than that. Josh and the entire team are so knowledgeable and supportive and if I could shout their praises from the mountain top I would. If you you feel hopeless and that you have tried literally everything out there to not just lose weight but improve your overall health I encourage you to go visit this amazing team❤️
Optimize U Chattanooga has been such an answered prayer for me.I was looking for someone to listen to my concerns and help me come up with a plan to live a healthy and full life and Optimize U has done that for me.I was referred to Laura by one of the coaches at nutrition world (that is a powerful combo in it self) and she has been so wonderful on this journey.I can honestly say I feel better than I have in years and I feel very much in control of my health and understanding what is happening.I also love all of the additional support with the cold plunge and I’m now addicted!The entire staff at both locations but especially hixson are amazing!!They make me feel so good every time I come in.Diane and Johnathan are wonderful!I definitely recommend optimize u to anyone who wants to take control of their health!
Josh Porter is awesome. He is very knowledgeable and is willing to do anything to help you. He even gave me his cell number in case I have any questions
Josh and the team at Optimize U you go above and beyond. They meet you where you are, listen to you and your goals, partnering with you to develop a plan to achieve them. Their slogan is spot on, “Normal is not Optimal”. This is not your normal clinic, normal experience, or normal care. Don’t be afraid to set your expectations high. At Optimize U Chattanooga, the clinic, care, and experience will be Optimal! Thank you all!
I was heard, seen, understood. I wanted to cry when they listened and didn't just dismiss me. Thank you.
I am a new patient. Just left the Low T Center. Wow, what a huge difference. My first consult was with Joshua Porter. He wanted to know all of my history then he explained how and why I felt the way I did in great detail.I never got that one on one treatment at the LowT center. He assured me I was in good hands and I truly believe that. Its been 3 weeks and everything is going as it should. If you are considering starting your TRT journey, or are wanting to move on from another clinic, you MUST come here. If you are wondering about cost, Don't! They are comparable to any clinic around. BTW, all the other staff I have talked to have been knowledgeable and courteous.
The staff are amazing and will go above and beyond to ensure your needs and focus on your goals !
It's been 2 months since I started my membership with Optimize U and I am already seeing improvements in my energy levels, mood and bloodwork! Thanks to the guidance of the staff, I have more energy now and have begun taking walks again. I am looking forward to seeing more progress over the next 3 months. If you are struggling with your health and your primary doctor has run out of answers or suggestions, I highly recommend that you make an appointment for an evaluation at Optimize U. I'm so glad that I did!
The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. I 100% recommend that everyone at least go and see if they can help.
Have been using Josh Porter @Optimize U for over a year now, have been a great relationship with staff, any questions and concerns are always answered promptly with the science to back it. Very caring and friendly staff. Blood work is always so easy.
If you need hormone therapy this is the place to go! I have been going here for 2 years and could not be happier with my results! The staff is amazing! They are so friendly and knowledgeable! Love my optimize family!
I can’t say enough about my overall experience with Optimize U. I was greeted with a smile by Kaitlynn at the front desk who made sure i was comfortable while i waited to be seen. My first appointment was with Valerie who took my blood samples. She was very friendly and definitely very experienced drawing blood. She set up my next appointment a week out to go over the lab results. My second visit was with Laura to go over my results. She was amazing!! Very informative and answered any questions i had. I highly recommend Optimize U. You guys Rock!!
Laura was so kind and answered all of my burning questions. She’s getting me back on track for 2024! Thank you 🙏🏼
Very thankful for Josh Porter and the crew at Optimize U. My energy level has improved among other things. They take the time to create a plan that’s individualized.
Love this place, Josh, Mandy, Kayli and Valerie are exceptional!!They have made my life, a true turn around. I have lost 47 lbs and feel amazing!! I highly recommend if you need advice and how to manage your life in a positive way, go see them. They will coach you and tell you how to use their facility to make your life more functional and meaningful. They have red light therapy, vitamins infusions, semiglutide, and more.
When I first started with Optimize U I had 0 energy and was living off coffee and energy drinks to get through the day. Since starting with Josh and getting my hormones in order I feel INCREDIBLE and highly recommend them. Josh is a wealth of knowledge in the industry and I truly trust his judgment and recommendations. I can’t say that about any other doctors I have seen.
As a seasoned hairstylist, I have seen and experienced so much unnecessary pain, and suffering that women go through due to lack of hormone optimization. There is hope, and there is help! I promise you will not regret visiting the Optimize U team! Josh and his team have literally changed my husbands and my life for the better!
The most friendly and knowledgeable staff. Recommending this clinic to everyone in my circle!
Optimize U is simply the best place in Chattanooga to go if you’re looking to take control of your general health and well being. The entire staff is top notch…caring, knowledgeable, and accommodating. My wife and I both decided to go to Optimize U a little over a year ago after making “better overall health” a goal of ours…. and not only has the team at Optimize U helped guide us to achieve and maintain those goals…but they also uncovered an underlying medical condition that we were unaware of which most likely saved my wife’s life. We highly recommend them to anyone who is ready to take control of their overall health!!
Josh and everyone at Optimize U are amazing!! I feel better now than I have in years. My hormone levels are now spot on and my insulin resistance is also now under control. I have lost 27 pounds and my energy levels are amazing!! Do yourself a favor and give them a call!! You will be glad you did!!
Josh Porter and his team are absolutely top notch! They have a system down that makes sure every thing is covered from start to finish. I'm excited for all the benefits I will be experiencing with them.
Josh is very knowledgeable in Hormone therapy and is very understanding. He is a Great guy. So glad I found him. Staff is friendly as well.
If only this was what healthcare looked like for all. The doctor was so generous with his time and extremely easy to talk with and explained my lab work in great detail.We need to stop being treated by big Pharma and our health insurance companies but instead work with doctors who care enough to treat with vitamins and education if appropriate. I highly recommend.
Love this place. Josh and the team are great. Feel better than I have felt in years and have lost 55 lbs while putting on muscle.
I love Optimize U, the staff are great and I have lost about 16 pounds so far! I feel amazing!
Everyone here seems to be working towards the same goal, helping you to be all that you can be.
Optimize U and staff have been life changing for my husband and I. Excellent service and staff is very knowledgeable and both Josh and Laura take time to genuinely listen to everything you say. They truly care and are very compassionate about each patients needs. I actually look to forward to my visits at Optimize U since they have become like family.
Josh is very knowledgeable and personable. Staff is great. So glad I made the decision to become a client
I feel amazing after getting everything straightened out with my levels. Everyone is super nice and welcoming. Josh is super nice and actually listens to you and is an absolute pleasure to work with.
Josh has done very well in managing my body while taking into account my fertility. He takes into account all aspects of my blood work. My phlebotomist has been great every time. Quick and painless!
As a young women with PCOS I am so thankful for a team of providers who listened to my concerns and got to the root of my issues.I am feeling so much better after the guidance form Josh Porter and Laura Chastain.
Josh is amazing! Very smart and caring! I would recommend optimize U to anyone! He truly cares how you feel and wants to see good results! I’m excited to see results for myself and my journey to feeling great again!UPDATE!! ! Currently I have lost 46 pounds in about 3 months! I love life again!Thank you Josh Porter!!
Optimize U is the best thing that I have ever done for myself. With their help i have lost over 100lbs of body fat. All aspects of my life have improved by utilizing their services. I am a healthier happier person thanks to Optimize U!
Josh and his team are awesome. We trust them to monitor our health, and this is definitely not one of those clinics that just wants to peddle out drugs. They genuinely care about your health and advise other options you can take.They also keep on improving their services and offerings. Amazing place, amazing people, and so awesome to see them in Chattanooga!
I can’t say enough about Josh and Optimize U. I have truly seen a drastic increase in my quality of life. I went from waking up feeling exhausted that continued throughout the day to feeling energized and normal again. I have struggled with fatigue for years trying so many different ways to combat this with no results until I started seeing Josh. Some days it was a struggle to stay awake even while driving and having to take naps when my kids were home from school. Now I don’t even think about needing to rest during the day. He has such great insight for what I needed and communicates and listens so well. Thank you Josh for helping me get my energy back!! This is a game changer for me and my family.
Optimize U came highly recommended from a dear friend of mine and after my first visit I definitely could see why. Josh and his staff are amazing and take the time needed to connect with each patient and their individual needs. It is very apparent that they not only love what they do but genuinely care ab their patients. Thank you for helping me feel my best!!! I will definitely be sending my family and friends.
