Feeling stuck despite your best efforts?

Peptide therapy offers science-backed, personalized support to help you:
• Break through weight plateaus
• Balance hormones (menopause, thyroid, PCOS, testosterone)
• Boost energy, recovery, and sleep
• Target stubborn fat

Here’s the difference: I create a custom plan based on your labs, goals, and lifestyle, not a one-size-fits-all program.

📍 In-person or telehealth visits

DM me “PEPTIDES” to see if this targeted approach is right for you!

Before you sign up for another monthly online weight-loss program… pause.

I’m Will Koopal, and I help people uncover the real reasons their bodies aren’t cooperating. Too often, weight gain, food cravings, and hormone imbalances are treated with generic plans, but the truth is, your body has a story to tell.

I focus on:
• Finding the root cause of your weight and cravings
• Identifying hidden hormone and gut imbalances
• Creating sustainable lifestyle changes—not quick fixes
• Using tools like peptides such as Retatrutide and Tesamorelin, and GLP-1 support when appropriate

I’ve struggled with my own weight, so I know how frustrating it is to feel stuck. I approach every client without judgement and with strategies that actually work.

This year, stop guessing and start understanding your body. Visit willkoopal.com or DM me to begin.

Grateful for the chance to sit down with my mentor, Rebecca Joiner Hart, ANP-BC, IFMCP, Nurse Practitioner and Owner of Faith, Hope & Wellness . We talked about chronic, complex conditions like Lyme disease, co-infections, and mold exposure, and her patient-first, investigative approach to functional medicine that has shaped how I think as a clinician. Mentorship matters, and learning from someone who truly listens to patients and looks for root causes has been invaluable to my growth. Thankful for the guidance, wisdom, and willingness to share knowledge as I continue going down the rabbit hole of complex chronic disease.

Did you know that 1 in 10 Americans has an autoimmune condition? Often, the underlying cause is undiagnosed infections, environmental toxins, or leaky gut, factors that mainstream medicine frequently overlooks.

In this video, Will Koopal, Functional Medicine provider, breaks down:
- How genetic predisposition interacts with triggers like bacteria, viruses, and toxins
- Why intestinal permeability (leaky gut) is a critical factor in autoimmunity
- The role of processed foods, candida overgrowth, and environmental chemicals
- How functional medicine tests, like the KB AMMO FIT, uncover food sensitivities and gut barrier issues
- The importance of modifiable lifestyle factors: sleep, stress, diet, exercise, and relationships

Will emphasizes a systematic, root-cause approach to autoimmune conditions, addressing the gut, lifestyle, and triggers to help you feel better.
