Hi, I’m Juan Rivas, one of the co-founders of Empowering Wellness and a dedicated advocate for patient-centered care. As a board-certified Nurse Practitioner (APRN-NP), I bring over 7 years of clinical experience with a specialized focus in hormone optimization, peptide therapy, and medical weight loss. We created Empowering Wellness as a space where patients feel truly heard, supported, and empowered to take control of their health journey.

My approach blends evidence-based medicine with compassionate care. Whether I’m helping patients rebalance their thyroid, improve energy levels, or restore hormonal harmony, my goal is always to treat the root cause—not just the symptoms.

Outside of the clinic, I enjoy working on home remodeling projects and finding creative ways to improve the spaces around me. Whether it's building something new or tackling a weekend DIY renovation, I find joy in creating things with my hands and bringing ideas to life—just like I do with my patients’ health goals.

I’m proud to serve the Wichita community and beyond, offering bilingual consultations in both English and Spanish to ensure high-quality wellness care is accessible to all. At Empowering Wellness, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all medicine—we believe in personalized care that helps you feel like yourself again.
