Health Concierge Service

Filling Your Special Product Needs

Welcome to our Health Concierge service, where we make specialty products available to lay consumers.

Looking for a unique product that we don’t carry?
We’ll do our best to find it for you.

Need a supplement that is only available through
physicians? As long as it doesn’t require you to
have a prescription, we can probably get it for you.
(Or at least we’ll strain our backs trying)!

Perhaps Dr. Myatt or another physician has recommended a special product for you that we don’t stock? No problem, you can still get it. Here’s how your Health Concierge service works:

Our non-stocked items can be purchased directly from our distributor, Emerson Ecologics. When you see the concierge symbol next to a product, the link will take you directly to a website where you can find and purchase your concierge product.

This is a seperate website from Dr. Myatt’s Wellness Club and will incur additional shipping charges. However, the products you can purchase here are specialty items, normally only available to physicians. Dr. Myatt is making them available to you as an additional Wellness Club service.

Look for this link – your personal access to hard-to-find specialty health products!

About Us


How The Wellness Club Came To Be

Dr. Myatt Brings You Good Health - Naturally!In 1994, after 5 years in medical practice, Dr. Myatt realized that there was no single source of high-quality supplements available to her patients. Instead, many of the best products were coming from a variety of different manufacturers. Most were not available in health food stores, only through physicians.

Dr. Myatt founded The Wellness Club as a way to make quality nutritional products easily available to her nationwide patient population. She also started making scienbtific holistic and natural health information more readily available to all by way of this website.

Later, Dr. Myatt consulted with biochemists and research scientists and founded Dr. Myatt Nutritionals, Dr. Myatt’s own brand of nutritional supplements and herbs.

Our vitamin, mineral and herbal formulas are a result of meticulous medical research combined with exacting production standards. The result is a line of the highest quality and most effective nutritional supplement formulas available anywhere.

Our goal is to continue providing innovative nutritional, dietary and herbal supplements manufactured to these same exacting standards, with the health conscious in mind.
