Real medicine. Honest care.
Comprehensive primary care, practiced with the time and judgment it actually requires. From everyday office procedures to modern preventive medicine, this is the full picture of what your doctor at Simplicity Health can do for you.
Comprehensive primary care, done well.
More than most primary care practices handle, because we have the time.
Lacerations get sutured here rather than sent to urgent care. Diabetes is managed with continuous glucose monitoring when appropriate, not just an A1c check every six months. Cardiovascular risk is assessed with ApoB, Lp(a), and coronary calcium scoring, not just a basic lipid panel.
We are also clear about what we don't do. Our physicians are board-certified doctors practicing evidence-based primary care. We are not a med spa, a wellness clinic, or a functional medicine practice. The result is a clinic patients can trust to give them straight answers grounded in what has actually been shown to work.
Procedures we handle without sending you elsewhere.
Most of these are things a typical primary care office routes out to urgent care, a specialist, or a separate procedure visit. Because our doctors have the time, you can have them done where you already are.

Chronic conditions, managed with the time to do it right.
Most primary care doctors know how to manage diabetes, hypertension, and high cholesterol. The difference is whether they have the time, and what they believe about treatment.
Diet and lifestyle are medicine.
With the right guidance and consistent follow-up, conditions like high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, and hypertension are often reversible without lifelong medication. Getting a patient off a pill is one of the most satisfying things our doctors do, and one we get to do regularly.
That said, we are not anti-medication. When prescription therapy is the right call, we use it without hesitation. Lab values guide our decisions, but we treat the patient, not the lab result.
Diabetes
Comprehensive diabetes care including continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) when appropriate, lifestyle and medication optimization, and close coordination with endocrinology when needed.
Hypertension
Home ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, evidence-based medication selection, and the time to actually titrate therapy based on real-world readings rather than a one-time office cuff.
Cardiovascular prevention
Modern cardiovascular risk assessment goes well beyond a basic lipid panel. Our physicians use ApoB, Lp(a), and coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring to identify patients at real risk early enough to actually do something about it.
Rheumatology
Many rheumatologic conditions, including gout, polymyalgia rheumatica, mild osteoarthritis, and fibromyalgia, can be managed effectively in primary care with the right time and attention. We handle initial workup, ongoing management, and joint and bursa injections in-office, and we coordinate closely with rheumatology for complex autoimmune disease.
Gastroenterology, ENT, and other specialty conditions
Traditional primary care often punts on conditions that "belong" to a specialist: reflux and chronic GERD, irritable bowel symptoms, sinusitis, allergic rhinitis, vertigo, headaches and migraines, and mild urologic concerns. Our physicians are trained to manage these and often do so successfully without a specialist referral, especially when we have the time to work them up properly.
When a specialist really is the right call, we refer through our unaffiliated network. But often, the right call is to handle it well in primary care, the way it used to be done.
Thyroid, COPD, and other common conditions
The everyday chronic disease landscape: thyroid disorders, COPD, chronic kidney disease, anemia, osteoporosis, and many others. These are conditions primary care has always managed. The difference here is the cadence of follow-up that the disease actually requires.
Weight loss support, done thoughtfully.
Weight loss is one of the things our practice does best. Our approach begins with diet and lifestyle coaching tailored to each patient, with the time to actually work through it together.
Diet and lifestyle coaching
Sustainable change starts with how you eat, move, and sleep. Our doctors work with you on a plan that fits your life, not a template. For many patients, this is where meaningful, lasting weight loss actually comes from.
GLP-1 therapy, managed properly
When GLP-1 medication is the right call, we prescribe and manage it carefully using FDA-approved, branded medications dispensed through proper pharmacy channels.
We do not compound GLP-1 medications in-office. Many clinics offer compounded versions because they are cheaper, but the FDA has taken repeated enforcement action against compounders for safety, purity, and dosing issues. We believe our patients deserve the medication that was actually studied and approved.
Hormone management, the evidence-based way.
Hormone therapy is one of the areas where bad medicine has become commonplace. Pellets get implanted in patients who don't need them. Testosterone gets prescribed to anyone who asks. Supplements get sold as "natural hormone optimization." None of that happens here. We provide clinical expertise, not products.
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT)
Our physicians treat clinically documented low testosterone using evidence-based protocols and ongoing monitoring. We weigh the real risks and benefits with each patient.
We do not prescribe TRT to "optimize" already-normal testosterone, and we do not sell supplements as a substitute for proper evaluation.
Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for women
We prescribe HRT for women with appropriate indications, following the recommendations of major medical societies. Perimenopause and menopause are managed thoughtfully and case-by-case.
We do not perform pellet therapy. Pellets cannot be removed if the dose is wrong, and the evidence for them does not support how aggressively they are marketed.
More of what we offer in-house.
Women's Health
Comprehensive primary care for women, including:
- Annual well-women exams
- Pap smears
- HPV self-swab option (less invasive)
- Contraception consultation
- Perimenopause and menopause management
Mental Health
We manage depression and anxiety in primary care using evidence-based, non-controlled medications. We do not prescribe controlled medications such as stimulants (for ADHD) or benzodiazepines. Patients who need those are coordinated with psychiatry.
For patients starting or struggling on psychiatric medications, we offer pharmacogenomic testing (GeneSight and Tempus), a simple cheek swab that helps identify which medications your genetics suggest will work best. It can spare months of trial and error.
Pediatric Care
Dr. Wenzell and Dr. Marton see pediatric patients of all ages, from newborns through adolescence.
- Newborn care
- Well-child visits
- Pediatric vaccinations
- Sports, school, and camp physicals
- Same- or next-day acute visits
Skin Cancer Screening
Most primary care offices give you a quick visual scan during your annual physical, if any. Dermatologists are booked months out for non-urgent skin checks.
Skin IO is different. It functions as a digital record of your skin over time. Dermoscopic photography paired with AI analysis can detect even the smallest changes or new growths between visits, the kind that a patient or even a dermatologist might miss. That's how early-stage melanoma gets caught when it's still an outpatient excision rather than a much harder fight.
Most primary care offices don't have time for this kind of screening. We make time for it because we think it's worth the value. Skin biopsies and lesion removals are then handled in-office.
Home Sleep Studies
Affordable home sleep apnea testing through trusted outsourced partners. CPAP devices and equipment through our partners are also extremely affordable. We handle the diagnosis, interpretation, and ongoing management of sleep apnea, with referral to sleep medicine for complex cases.
In-House Pharmacy & Labs
Common generic medications dispensed at near-wholesale prices. Lab draws done in-office at deeply discounted negotiated rates, often less than what a co-pay would be elsewhere.
Specialist referrals, the right way.
Because Simplicity Health is unaffiliated with any hospital system or corporate network, we send our patients to the absolute best specialists in Dayton and the surrounding region, regardless of who they work for. Most practices keep referrals within their own network because their employer requires it. We don't have that constraint.
When a patient is admitted to the hospital, we coordinate directly with the hospitalists handling their inpatient care. When they're discharged, we pick up where the hospital left off. No gaps, no lost paperwork, no waiting two weeks for a follow-up appointment.
And because our physicians have time, we can often manage complex cases that other primary care doctors would have to refer out. When a referral really is the right call, we work closely with the specialist throughout. Patients who need a specialist referral processed through their insurance can absolutely use it. We coordinate either way.
Things we don't do, and why.
A trustworthy clinic should be clear about what it is not willing to do, not just what it sells. Here is what we do not offer at Simplicity Health, and the reasoning behind each.
IV vitamin infusions
There is no credible evidence that IV vitamin therapy benefits otherwise healthy patients. It is a wellness-industry product, not medicine.
Controlled medications
We do not prescribe stimulants (such as those used for ADHD), benzodiazepines, opioids for chronic pain, or controlled sleep medications. Patients who need these are coordinated with the appropriate specialist (psychiatry, pain management, or sleep medicine).
Compounded GLP-1 medications
We prescribe FDA-approved, branded GLP-1 therapy. Compounded versions have been subject to repeated FDA enforcement actions for safety, purity, and dosing concerns.
Hormone pellet therapy
Pellets cannot be removed if the dose is wrong or causes problems, and the evidence does not support how aggressively they are marketed.
Peptide therapy and "longevity" protocols
BPC-157, NAD+ infusions, sermorelin, and similar peptide treatments are heavily marketed in wellness and anti-aging spaces but have thin clinical evidence and are typically obtained through compounders. We stick with therapies that have rigorous evidence behind them.
Botox, fillers, and aesthetic services
These are cosmetic services. We focus on medical care and refer patients to qualified providers when aesthetics are what they're looking for.
Functional medicine testing
Heavy metals panels, MTHFR testing, adrenal fatigue workups, chronic Lyme protocols. These tests are expensive, frequently misleading, and not supported by mainstream medical evidence. We believe ordering them does our patients more harm than good.
Nursing home care
Skilled nursing facility care requires a different model and frequent on-site presence. We focus on what we do best: comprehensive outpatient primary care.
