Local Physician Launches Innovative Healthcare Practice

Micah Olson, MD

Dr. Micah Olson has established Valley Healthspan, a functional medicine and age management center, located at 3333 E. Camelback Road, Suite 270, which opened its doors to patients in June.

With roots as a third-generation Phoenician from North Central, Olson transitioned from his 14-year tenure as a pediatric endocrinologist at Phoenix Children’s Hospital. His new practice emphasizes age management and preventative care, aiming to address chronic diseases with tailored strategies.

Olson focuses on identifying the root causes of chronic illnesses through advanced diagnostic tools, including metabolic and hormone testing, body composition analysis, continuous glucose monitoring, VO2 max testing, and assessments of cognitive function and sleep. This thorough evaluation allows him to create individualized health plans for patients.

Each comprehensive treatment plan encompasses nutritional guidance, exercise counseling, and potential interventions such as nutraceuticals, bioidentical hormone optimization, or a weight management strategy. Olson’s ultimate aim is to enhance his patients’ physical and cognitive vitality as they age.
