We believe healthcare should be personal, proactive, and built around the whole person, not just a diagnosis.
The status quo in medical care isn't working for those who want real results. At ANU Wellness, we go beyond standard labs and rushed visits to uncover the root causes of how you feel, optimizing your hormone and metabolic health for the long term.
ABOUT US
I'm Brittany Urresta, a Nurse Practitioner and founder of ANU Wellness, a concierge hormone and metabolic health practice in Alabaster, Alabama. I help women and men understand and address changes in their weight, energy, strength, sleep, mood, and sex drive. My approach looks beyond symptoms and lab values to understand what's changed, why, and what we can do about it together.

THE ANU EXPERIENCE
TESTIMONIALS
"I started my journey with ANU Wellness back in June, and working with Brittany has been nothing short of life-changing. She is encouraging, detailed, honest, and an absolute bad*ss in the best way. From day one, she pushed me to think deeper about my habits, my health, and my goals — and it shows. Since starting, I’ve noticed a huge improvement in my overall mood and day-to-day peace. I’m less irritable, especially with my kids, and my energy is finally consistent again. I had been stuck in my weight-loss journey for so long, even while going to the gym 5 days a week. Brittany dug deeper, optimized my thyroid, and balanced my hormones — things I didn’t even realize were holding me back. One of my biggest reasons my desire for my husband was never gone — my hormones were just out of balance. Now that they’re aligned, that part of my life has improved tremendously, and it feels amazing to feel like myself again. And the results speak for themselves! This is a true lifestyle change, not an overnight fix, and I’m fully committed. I can’t wait to see what this next year brings with Brittany by my side at ANU Wellness."

"I've known things were "off" with my body for a while now but didn't know how or where to go to fix it! When I read about Brittany's journey and ANU wellness clinic I knew I needed to go! I am so thankful for her expertise and understanding! It feels good to have my symptoms validated on paper through bloodwork and have a plan on how to fix them! Thank you Brittany!!"

Brittany is very knowledgeable and will patiently educate you on the results of your blood work and will work with you to create a realistic plan that is easily maintainable on a daily basis. I am looking forward to taking control of my health and wellness."

"Brittany helped me turn my life around. When I first came to Brittany, I was a mess and desperate for change. I was struggling with inflammation, getting hurt left and right, and dealing with constant back and shoulder pain. I was low on energy and high on crankiness. I had a terrible relationship with food; I felt like I was a slave to junk food, riding the endless roller coaster of limiting my food and then binge eating. I was willing to put in the work, but I didn't know how or where to start. Before even walking into my initial consultation, I made the decision to follow through with whatever she recommended, and I am so happy I did. Brittany ran a very holistic round of labs and sat with me to review and explain all her findings. She suggested some hard (but realistic) changes to my activity and food, paired with progesterone and some supplements. Implementing the suggestions was not easy. I switched from doing HIIT workouts that left me drained to facing my insecurities and walking into a gym for the first time ever to do strength training (which I now love). I switched from junk food and takeout to homemade foods that I still enjoyed and that satisfied my cravings (with a focus on clean ingredients). The first days and weeks were hard, but then something amazing happened... I started to feel GREAT. I was more energized and in a better mood, with almost no joint pain. To my amazement, I stopped having cravings for the junk food I had always felt I couldn't live without. It has been LIBERATING. I am only 7 months into this journey, and it is amazing how much has changed."

"Prior to meeting Brittany and ANU Wellness, I was at a point in my fitness journey where I needed to optimize. I was lacking the energy and the ability to recover from my workouts. After going in for my labs and consultation, Brittany went over and explained a game plan on how she can help me increase my hormone levels and get the most out of my lifestyle. She has been very eager to help me with any questions or concerns."

"Long story short, before ANU I was tired all of the time, anxious, easily agitated, wasn't sleeping and downright cranky. After a few months with ANU, I'm sleeping, I'm a happier, less cranky person and feel like myself again! And bonus, I'm lifting heavier in the gym! Brittany even helped me name the part of my thyroid I got to keep after surgery. What else could you ask for! Get started, immediately if not sooner, you will not regret investing in your health!"

"I’m just thankful that someone was willing to take the time to figure all of this out. I can’t tell you how many times in the past I was told different things and felt brushed off. I’d heard it all. This was the first time I felt like real solutions were being worked through instead of quick answers. I think it’s important for people to know when someone truly helps and is doing things the right way. I’m incredibly thankful."

"I have been a personal trainer for nearly 15 years and had recently been struggling with my own performance in the gym, no energy, no motivation. I got with Brittany and did a full work up. She put together a plan and 5 weeks later I'm feeling better than I have in years. She is very knowledgeable and was great to work with."
