Desert Health is Wealth is a nurse practitioner-founded mental wellness clinic looking to help achieve total mind and body wellness. We will do this by looking beyond just the black and white of traditional psychiatric medical practice and looking for other possible underlying organic causes for why your mental wellness may not be at its best. We believe in the power of collaboration to create exceptional health outcomes.
