🌟 Get to Know Your Provider: Candice Duke, MSN, APRN, ACNPC-AG, RNFA, CFMP 🌟

Hi, I’m Candice 👋 — Nurse Practitioner and founder of Summit Health & Wellness. I created my practice because I believe your healthcare should be as unique as you are. Too often, the traditional healthcare model focuses on quick fixes and one-size-fits-all solutions. My mission is different: I provide personalized IV therapy 💧 that supports your wellness goals on your terms, in the comfort of your space.

🩺 My Journey in Healthcare

I bring more than 15 years of nursing experience to every patient I serve. My career has spanned some of the most demanding areas of medicine, and each step has shaped the way I practice today:

  • 🚑 Trauma ICU: Caring for critically ill patients in Level I trauma centers taught me how to think quickly, assess deeply, and never overlook the details.

  • 🧠 Orthopedic Spine Surgery: As a Nurse Practitioner and First Assist, I worked side by side with surgeons in complex spinal procedures — from fusions to reconstructions.

  • 🌱 Functional Medicine & Gut Health: As a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner, I focus on the deep connection between gut health and whole-body wellness.

  • Advanced Therapies: I’m also certified in Peptide Therapy, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, and Ozone Therapy, staying on the cutting edge of regenerative and integrative medicine.

This unique blend of critical care, surgical expertise, and functional medicine training gives me a perspective few IV therapy providers have. When I place an IV 💉 or recommend a treatment, it comes with the confidence of someone who has cared for both the most acute patients in medicine and those seeking long-term wellness.

🌿 What Is Functional Medicine and Root Cause Medicine?

Many people ask: what exactly is functional medicine?

Functional medicine looks at the whole person — body, mind, and lifestyle — to find the root cause of illness rather than just treating symptoms.

For example:

  • Instead of masking fatigue with quick fixes ☕, we ask: Is there a nutrient deficiency? Gut imbalance? Sleep or hormone issue?

  • Instead of only treating headaches 💥 with medication, we explore hydration, nutrition, stress, or posture.

Even though functional medicine isn’t listed as a service right now, it shapes every decision I make as a provider.

💧 Why Summit Health & Wellness?

I started Summit Health & Wellness to bring IV therapy to people on their terms. No crowded waiting rooms 🪑, no hidden insurance costs 💸 — just direct, professional care delivered in your chosen space.

Whether you’re looking for hydration, recovery, or performance support, my goal is to help you feel your best in a way that’s personalized, safe, and effective.

🌄 Beyond the White Coat

Health and movement are central to my life. I’m a rock climber 🧗‍♀️, runner 🏃‍♀️, strength training enthusiast 💪, hiker 🥾, and yogi 🧘‍♀️.

My husband and I moved from the East Coast to Las Vegas to be closer to the desert’s incredible outdoor access — especially Red Rock Canyon & Mount Charleston ❤️.
