If you haven't already... meet Lynneettee!

Lynneettee is a vital part of the Ikaria Concierge & Functional Medicine team and works closely with Rachel Polich, APRN, helping ensure our patients receive thoughtful, attentive, and seamless care.

She is a medical assistant, phlebotomist, and IV certified, bringing both skill and precision to every patient interaction — from lab work to IV therapy and beyond.

This April 1st marks two years working with the Haakes, and we’re incredibly grateful for the care, dedication, and consistency she brings to Ikaria every day.

We’re lucky to have her!

Dr. Brett Haake explains the big picture on insulin resistance and why it affects more than most people think.

Simply stated, insulin resistance is a breakdown in how cells respond to insulin, and it impacts nearly every system in the body — from brain health and heart function to metabolic disease and inflammation.

By the time blood sugar or A1C rises, dysfunction has often been building for years. That’s why true prevention doesn’t start with reacting to disease — it starts with measuring metabolic health early and addressing dysfunction before symptoms appear.

When you restore metabolic function, weight loss becomes a byproduct, energy improves, and long-term disease risk drops dramatically.
Better inputs → better outcomes.

Introducing a special guest on the podcast — renowned ophthalmologist Dr. Val Zudans.

In this episode, Dr. Zudans breaks down how most illnesses — if not all — stem from metabolic dysfunction. Even conditions that seem unrelated, like cataracts, may have a much deeper metabolic connection than most people realize.

New Year, new goals… and a smarter way to reach them. 🧬

In 2026, the focus is on understanding your body from the inside out—hormones, metabolism, mitochondrial function, and insulin resistance all play a role in lasting results.

This year, make a resolution that actually works: work with a doctor who listens, digs deeper, and treats your body as a system, not a symptom.

Real change starts on the inside.

Busy moms don't wait for the perfect time to work out-because it doesn't exist.😅
Kids, work, interruptions... we still show up. Even if it's messy. Even if it's short.
Because we matter too.💪

The Preventus Podcast is BACK!

Medicine is changing... and this episode explains why.

On this episode of the Preventus Podcast, Dr. Brett Haake and Dr. Felice Haake share the journey that led them away from conventional medicine and toward a preventative, functional, and concierge-based approach to care.

We dive into:
• why prevention matters more than reaction
• the FDA’s updated guidance on hormone replacement therapy
• what the WHI study got wrong — and what the science says now
• how metabolic health impacts nearly every chronic disease

This conversation is about time, access, and treating the root cause — not just symptoms.

🎧 Full episode available now.
Episode 12: Setting the Record Straight on HRT

12/29/2025

Part 2 of debunking myths around hormone replacement therapy!

Let’s talk about one of the biggest issues with the study that created so much fear around HRT… the data.

When you take a closer look, there were major flaws that made the results far from reliable:

❗70% of the women monitored for cardiovascular events were overweight or obese
❗50% of them were smokers
❗Many were more than 10 years past menopause, a stage where starting HRT can carry different risks compared to women who begin earlier

So the study that sparked a nationwide panic… wasn’t based on a group that reflected the average, healthy hormone patient at all.

This is just the beginning of breaking down why the original messaging was misleading and why HRT deserves a fair, evidence-based conversation.

One of our favorite things in the office is watching people get their life back with Pellecome.
It sounds dramatic, but if you’ve ever struggled with hormones… you know it can touch every part of your day. Your energy, patience, motivation, relationships. All of it.

Seeing someone come back a few weeks later saying, “I finally feel like myself again,” never gets old, and the best part is that pellets keep things steady, so you’re not riding that up-and-down roller coaster that so many people are used to. It’s simple, low-maintenance, and for a lot of our patients, it’s the first time things finally click.

If you’ve been feeling off for a while, it might be worth looking into your hormones. You’d be surprised how much they can shift things.
