Think about healthcare in a whole new way

Here’s how it works…

While we don’t bill your insurance for the care we provide, if you have insurance you can continue to use it for all of the care you receive outside of our practice (specialists, hospitalizations, surgeries, etc.).

That said, we try to minimize your healthcare costs by doing as much as we can for you in our clinic. If we are ever able to save you a trip to urgent care or the emergency room you’ll be saving hundreds (if not thousands) of dollars – enough to pay for months or years of membership.

Dr. Melissa A. Helms, MD

As a native to Colorado, Dr. Melissa Helms has been a practicing internal medicine physician in the Denver area since 2009. She takes a collaborative approach by spending time to understand each patient’s history and goals to then create personalized care plans aiming to optimize health and wellbeing. She is passionate about preventive, proactive medicine as well as chronic disease management, nutrition and mental health. Adopting a membership-based primary care practice allows for the time needed to develop a close partnership with her patients to help them live their happiest, healthiest life possible.

Dr. Helms holds a Bachelor of Science in psychology from Colorado State University and a Doctor of Medicine from University of Colorado Health Sciences Center. She completed her residency in internal medicine at Oregon Health and Sciences University. She was named one of Denver’s Top Docs in 5280 Magazine and she is the recipient of the 2018 OptumCare Values in Action Performance award.

In addition to clinical practice, Dr. Helms has a special interest in healthcare technology. She served as the Chief Medical Information Officer for OptumCare Colorado providing clinical technology leadership across multiple practices in the state. She is excited about using technology to connect with her patients improving both communication and engagement in their health.

When she’s not practicing medicine, Dr. Helms’ favorite activities include yoga, travel, cooking, hiking, skiing, reading, meditation and spending time with her adorable dogs Emma and Bodhi.

Dr. Todd Wisser, DO

Dr. Todd Wisser is known for his relaxed and engaging manner. His concern for, and interest in, people is apparent in all of his medical worlds. Whether he’s doing a broadcast clip on local television/radio/social media covering some aspect of medical education, fulfilling his duties as the Medical Director for Mt. Evans Hospice, or in the exam room with a patient, Dr. Wisser is always present and engaged.

“I have thought through my philosophy about becoming a doctor way back in medical school at Michigan State University. It guides my work today, and I’d like to share it here.

It’s people that I care about, and always have. I believe caring for patients involves more than just addressing disease; it means treating and caring for the whole person. The body possesses an innate ability to heal itself, and it is our role as physicians to support this capacity, be it through the touch of manual medicine, pharmacology, surgery, or another osteopathic modality.

It is my hope that each of my patients will achieve their maximum capacity for wellness, accomplished by focusing on health promotion and disease prevention. Reaching these goals is dependent upon a collaborative partnership between patient and physician. I believe that listening to, and talking with my patients, is as important as their vital signs or any medication I might prescribe. I like to think we work around the weaknesses and focus on supporting the strengths present. There are always some of these to be found!”

Dr. Wisser migrated from the Midwest to the mountains he’s always loved with his family in 2017. Prior to that, he enjoyed a 5 year engagement as a high school chemistry teacher before entering medical school. He completed his internship at Genysys Regional Medical Center in Grand Blanc, MI, and his residency in Internal Medicine at Michigan State University’s Sparrow Hospital in Lansing, Michigan. Since being in Colorado, Dr. Wisser has held leadership positions within the Evergreen New West Physician’s practice, and then in the national Optum medical system. Most recently he served as the Senior Medical Director for the state of Colorado managing the growth of their Medicare Advantage program.

An avid outdoor enthusiast, there is almost no mountain sport that Dr. Wisser hasn’t explored. His favorites are skiing, mountain biking and endless hiking, whatever the season. Accompanying him are usually his wife, three very active kids, and their dog Piper.
