What we see most in Utah

High altitude, high desert, conditions stack up.

Three patterns we treat constantly across the Beehive State.

Altitude + dryness

SLC sits over 4,200 ft. Dry mucous membranes + dehydration accelerate UTIs and sinus infections.

UTI · sinus

Ski + winter sport

Park City, Sundance, Snowbird, weekend warriors text us about wounds, sinus, and sore throats.

Skin infection · sinus

Inversion bronchitis

Wasatch Front winter inversions trap pollutants. Bronchitis flares hard from January through March.

Made for Utah Families

Young state, young families, not enough providers.

Utah has the youngest average population in the country and some of the biggest families. That's beautiful, but it also means that when one kid brings strep throat home from school, suddenly you've got three sick kids and a parent with a sore throat too. Taking everybody in for a visit? That's a whole-day event and hundreds of dollars.

Here's the deal. I'm Chris Woods, a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner licensed in Utah. You text me what's going on, and I can treat each family member for $59 apiece. No paperwork, no waiting room full of other sick kids, no burning through a Saturday at urgent care.

And it's not just families. Utah has a huge outdoors culture, hiking in Zion, skiing at Park City, camping in Moab. You're out in the backcountry and you start getting UTI symptoms? Or you're in St. George for a tournament and your kid gets an ear infection? Text me. I'll send a prescription to whatever pharmacy is nearby.

For the college students in Provo and Logan. I know student health centers have limited hours and long waits. And a lot of you are on your parents' high-deductible plan where a clinic visit is basically out-of-pocket anyway. Sixty-nine dollars at urgent care for the visit, plus the prescription, plus the copay. Or $59 total with me, prescription included in the evaluation.

How It Works

Easier than loading the kids in the minivan.

Text 480-639-4722

Tell me who's sick and what's going on. "My 8-year-old has had an earache for 2 days" works great. I'll ask follow-up questions, everything happens over regular text messages.

I evaluate and create a plan

I'm Chris Woods, board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner, licensed in Utah. I personally review symptoms and determine the best treatment. No app, no video call, no AI chatbot.

Pick up at your pharmacy

I send prescriptions to whatever's convenient, Smith's, Walgreens, Costco, the Harmons near your house, the pharmacy in your small town. Usually ready in 1–2 hours.
