Hormones Make Us Happy

Mar 31, 2025 03:13PM ● By Martin Miron

Signature Wellness is a functional and integrative medicine practice specializing in personalized
healthcare for women and men focusing on hormone balance, weight management, gut health
and overall wellness using a root-cause approach, rather than just treating symptoms. 
DeborahMatthew, M.D. “America’s Happy Hormones Doctor”, is a diplomate of the American Board of Integrative Medicine and a fellow of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine. After experiencing the life-changing benefits of bioidentical hormone therapy firsthand, she dedicated her career to helping others reclaim their health and vitality using a more patient-centered approach to health care.

Products or services include bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT); medical weight-
loss programs; gut health and functional medicine testing; nutritional and lifestyle counseling, and aesthetic treatments in the Signature 
MedSpa. Five providers and four health coaches
collaborate closely with the dedicated support staff to provide individualized care and ongoing
education, ensuring patients receive the best possible support on their wellness journey.

Matthew explains, “Unlike traditional healthcare practices that focus on prescriptions and
symptom management, we take a proactive, root-cause approach to health. Our personalized
wellness programs integrate advanced testing, nutritional supplements, bioidentical hormones
and lifestyle modifications to achieve optimal well-being. We believe in sharing knowledge and
educating both patients and practitioners. Through practitioner training and mentorship, our goal
is to help advance functional medicine so more people can get well, get off prescription drugs,
and love the way they feel!”

Bioidentical hormone therapy is one of their most impactful services. Many people, especially
women going through menopause, experience fatigue, brain fog, weight gain and mood swings
due to hormonal changes. Personalized Signature Wellness hormone programs are designed to
restore balance, improve energy and enhance overall well-being, helping patients feel like
themselves again.

After helping thousands of patients transform their health, Matthew has become a leading voice
in functional medicine, speaking nationally at conferences and authoring multiple books.
Growing mentorship programs for other practitioners also allow them to expand their impact
beyond their own patients.

One challenge Matthew faces is educating the public about not just the benefits of functional
medicine, but also the fact that hormones are not something to fear. She explains, “Many people
hesitate to seek treatment due to misconceptions, not realizing they have safe, effective options
to feel their best. Our mission is to empower individuals with the knowledge that they deserve to
love the way they feel and that they do have the ability to take control of their health and well-
being.”

She says, “A common misconception is that functional medicine is just ‘alternative’ medicine. In
reality, we use science-backed testing and treatments to address health issues at their source. Our goal is to complement conventional care with a proactive, whole-body approach. Our success comes from truly listening to our patients and addressing their unique needs. We focus on personalized care, empowering people to take control of their health and providing ongoing
support for lasting results. Our commitment to education, innovation and a patient-centered
approach has led to a growing community of people who feel better—and share their success
with others.”
