Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Next Health operates health optimization and longevity centers that combine advanced diagnostic testing with in-clinic therapies and membership-based care. Its service catalogue spans advanced medical services (an Executive Physical program, IV therapy and NAD+ therapy, bioidentical hormone optimization/BHRT, peptide therapy, therapeutic plasma exchange), wellness technology (including LED infrared therapy and hyperbaric oxygen therapy), vitamin shots, functional-medicine wellness tests, and aesthetics under a "Next Beauty" line.

The company frames its offering around a four-step journey: measuring biomarkers, building a personalized wellness plan, joining a membership that provides access to its technology and medical services at its locations, and re-testing to track progress. Packaged programs include a Hormone Optimization Program and a Weight Optimization Program that pairs peptide therapy with habit and lifestyle change. Retail diagnostic packages are priced from a $299 Baseline Test covering 50 core health measures, to a $2,999 Total Wellness Package analyzing over 500 biomarkers across functional-medicine panels (food sensitivity, micronutrient, genetic, gut-health and cancer-screening gene tests), up to a $14,500 Executive Physical that adds full-body MRI and chest CT imaging, in-depth genetic testing and preventative cancer screening. A consumer iOS app lets clients book services, manage memberships and appointments and credits, chat with the care team, and view a health markers dashboard covering biological age, a vitality score and 15+ health categories.

Business model

Next Health sells clinic-delivered medical and wellness services directly to consumers, using paid diagnostic packages and programs as an entry point and recurring memberships that bundle access to its wellness technology and medical services at its locations. Retail purchases (including peptide products and member-only products shipped to clients) are also transacted through its mobile app.

Revenue comes from fee-for-service treatments and diagnostic packages with published prices (e.g., $299 Baseline Test, $2,999 Total Wellness Package, $14,500 Executive Physical), from membership plans that provide monthly service credits, and from product sales such as peptides sold through the app.

Traction

The company reports that 35% of Executive Physical clients have had potentially life-threatening conditions detected early, including aneurysms, tumors, liver and pancreatic cancer, and heart disease. Its consumer app carries a 4.2 average rating from 40 ratings on the US App Store and has shipped frequent releases, though some reviews cite registration and reliability problems.

Latest developments

Recent product activity includes the introduction of Next Health Peptide Pens and the promotion of Therapeutic Plasma Exchange as a featured service. App releases during 2025 added a health markers dashboard with biological age and vitality scores, in-app care-team chat, member-only products and peptide product sales, with version 11.1 shipped in August 2025.

Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market, geography, risks & controversies

Market position

The company positions itself as a health optimization and longevity center operating at the intersection of preventive diagnostics, functional medicine and aesthetics, describing itself as the first such center of its kind.

Next Health differentiates on breadth of measurement-driven services under one roof — combining imaging- and genomics-based executive physicals with infusion, hormone, peptide and wellness-technology therapies — and on IV formulations that begin with a fluid, electrolyte and Myer's Cocktail multivitamin base rather than charging separately for added vitamins and minerals.

Technology

The company's clinical stack centers on biomarker and functional-medicine lab testing, genetic testing, and imaging (full-body MRI, chest CT) used for early disease detection, alongside delivery technologies such as IV and NAD+ infusion, peptide therapy including peptide pens, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, LED infrared therapy and therapeutic plasma exchange. A customer-facing iOS application supports booking, membership and credit management, purchases, care-team messaging, and a dashboard tracking biological age, a vitality score and health categories such as gut, hormone and brain health.

Go-to-market

Next Health markets directly to consumers through its website and app with free introductory consultations, tiered diagnostic packages that lead into memberships, and physical flagship locations; the app also distributes blog and podcast content and notifications to clients.

Consumers seeking proactive, preventive and longevity-oriented care, including clients pursuing hormone optimization, medically supervised weight loss, energy and recovery support, and executives buying comprehensive early-detection physicals.

Geography

Locations referenced in public materials include a Bellevue, Washington clinic, and the company's app is positioned for clients locating centers while travelling; the app developer entity is NEXTHEALTH WEST HOLLYWOOD, INC.

Risks & controversies

User reviews of the company's app report recurring registration and login failures after updates. Several marketed services — including therapeutic plasma exchange, peptide therapy and high-cost imaging-based screening — are elective, out-of-pocket offerings whose clinical claims are made by the company itself.
