Highland Health and Wellness Center

I saw Dr. Meyer a couple times about 2 years ago for a general check ups and prescription refill for an asthma medication I’ve been taking since I was a child. She has been refilling my daily pill since with no problem but all of a sudden my mail-​in prescription stopped coming through. After consulting with my insurance company I discovered that they have been calling the doctor’s office for more than 3 months now with zero communication back to renew the refill. After 2 weeks of calls and voicemails, I finally reached the doctors’ office today to learn that they refuse to refill the prescription because I haven’t been in for nearly 2 years and they require annual visits for regular prescriptions, the receptionist informs me. I explained that I would have happily come in for an appointment if I knew I needed to but I’m a healthy, 28-​year-​old, active adult so I did not feel the need. Now, I have been without my prescription for nearly a month and cannot get it refilled until I go see the doctor, which is now far from my home and work so it will be at least a couple weeks before I could get in. And if they want an annual appointment, why did they wait nearly 2 years, 22 months to be exact, and wait until I contacted them? Isn’t it their job to call and remind me that it’s time for an annual if they want me to come in for that?
I understand that they want to see me in order to continue refilling the prescription. I have no problem with that. My problem is that they stopped providing a medicine they know is a daily pill without notifying me or my insurance company or asking me to make an appointment. They just stopped with no warning putting me without medication for at least a month.
Not to mention, I found the doctor overly paranoid about small items that I expressed concern to her about when I did visit. They turned out to be nothing and when I consulted with another doctor, was told she had no reason to worry me like she did.
I will not be going back to this office and I would steer you away as well unless you have the time to put in all of the follow up work required to make sure they’re doing their jobs.

I really don’t understand anyone rating Dr. Shelley any more than one star???
I am new in town and looking to find a medical provider in my neighborhood and thought from this clinic’s website that it would be a perfect fit. Yet it was a complete let down from the moment I called to make an appointment. It was hard to get in, the woman on the phone was rude and not helpful and then my appointment was not scheduled correctly. Dr. Shelly was not any more impressive. Unfortunately, she was very impersonal, did offer a natural and holistic approach I was looking for and rushed me out of her office.
I’ll keep looking for someone that will offer me more than 15 minutes of their time. I wasted a $ 30 copay on 15 useless minutes.

Cant ask for a better doctor that listen to you.

My mom came to visit and ended up needing refills on some of her medications because she stayed longer than planned. My mom had Polio when she was younger and has a lot of complications as a result of Post Polio. Most doctors don’t know much about Post Polio Syndrome because Polio was eradicated so long ago. Dr. Shelly admitted she didn’t know much about Post Polio Syndrome but was more than willing to learn about my mom’s condition and addressed all of my mom’s concerns.
I am in the healthcare field and get extremely frustrated when doctors act like they know everything and are unwilling to step outside what they know and learn something new. For this reason, I was über excited to learn that Dr. Shelly first got her Masters Degree in nutrition then several years later she went back to school to become a doctor. To me, this shows that she understands that health and wellness is about taking care of your whole self rather than addressing only the issue at hand.

Amy Boom (acupuncturist) at Highland Health & Wellness Center is incredible! I trusted her and felt a sense of peace the moment I met her. I’m fairly new to acupuncture so I did my homework and I’m so happy that I decided on her.
I was also very impressed with the facilities (updated, clean, calming, cheery, and bright light…) that all matters when you’re trying to find balance and peace.
Her private practice is called Woven Wisdom but it is located within Highland Health & Wellness Center
Book an appt. with her, you will NOT regret it!

Dr. Shelly Meyer at Highland Health and Wellness is hands down the best doctor in Denver! Today I called her about many symptoms I am having (that seem to suggest I have a kidney infection) and she is meeting to see me soon, on her day off! She has seen me with 2 problems in the past couple of years, a boil and a rash, and has cured both problems immediately and effectively. I highly suggest Highlands Health and Wellness, especially if you are in the area. She also is a mother and knows a lot about natural remedies/​alternative medicines. She is extremely smart and caring, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
