Bracha Banayan
Founder, Author, Entrepreneur, Public Speaker, Family Nurse Practitioner, and GLP-1 Specialist
Bracha Banayan is an ANCC-certified Family Nurse Practitioner, entrepreneur, and clinician on a mission to bring personalized, evidence-based medicine directly to the people who need it most. With over a decade of experience spanning emergency medicine, family care, allergy treatment, and therapeutic infusions, her journey began at the bedside of a notoriously high-volume emergency room, where she witnessed firsthand the gaps in patient-centered care. That frustration became fuel.
IVDRIPS, her premium on-demand mobile IV company servicing the East Coast, was born from a simple but radical idea: that wellness should always come to you, on your terms, without compromise. Nine years later, IVDRIPS is the gold standard in concierge IV therapy, delivering customized infusions for everything from wellness to ongoing treatments that helped reduce hospital burden during COVID-19 and earned national recognition.
When COVID hit, Bracha herself navigated first-time weight gain despite diet and exercise, an experience that deepened her understanding of metabolic health and patient needs. She watched history repeat itself as GLP-1 medications emerged as revolutionary but left patients without the proper framework for lasting change.
She built Hello Dose to solve exactly that. Now operating across 22 states, Hello Dose combines clinical precision with a personalized, empathetic approach to GLP-1 weight management, metabolic health, and peptide therapy, grounded in her proprietary DROP Method.
Bracha is driven by a deep commitment to advancing the conversation around spreading knowledge about metabolic health and believes it is the foundation of everything: energy, longevity, confidence, and quality of life. Her approach is rooted in longevity science and whole-person care, emphasizing sleep, nutrition, movement, and human connection alongside medical intervention. She regularly educates clinicians and consumers through speaking engagements and media appearances including CBS News and the New York Times, with a focus on safe, effective, and holistic health strategies. Her book Why Are You Still Hungry?, set to release this year, reflects this philosophy and her unwavering belief that real change starts when patients have the proper tools and education to unlock their metabolic health and take control of their lives.
