Somer Schreiber-Small is a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and the founder of Synchronicity Health, Sacramento’s hormone optimization and medical weight loss practice. With over 30 years in clinical medicine, spanning acute care, cardiac telemetry, dialysis, and post-acute rehabilitation before she moved into private practice, Somer brings a depth of hands-on clinical judgment that most hormone-focused practices don’t have on staff.
Every patient starts with comprehensive lab work, not a standardized protocol. That individualized approach sets her apart from high-volume weight loss clinics and one-size-fits-all hormone programs.
