This approach is right for you since you are ready to take control of your health.
We don’t believe in quick fixes. However, we do believe that every person’s body has the ability to embark on a healing journey. We want to help you learn about how your body works, and that takes you being committed to making transformative lifestyle changes. Ready to get started?
Dr. Jennifer Mead
Entelechy life is not your conventional medical practice. It’s not even your ordinary ‘alternative’ clinic. Functional medicine brings together the best of science-backed medicine and holistic, personalized care.
So much of our time is spent reacting to diseases that we never get around to what is actually important, cultivating the foundation of a healthy life. The services Dr. Jennifer Mead and Entelechy Life offer can be compared to routine maintenance on your car. And not just maintenance, but upgrades as well!
We’re all about proactive care. We don’t want you to have to use health insurance, wasting money on avoidable ER visits.
So how are we different? We do not treat diseases but rather people. We use the same diagnostic criteria to ‘diagnose,’ and if needing more specialized care, we will certainly refer you. However, our mission is to craft wellness plans focused on your unique situation. No cookie-cutter diagnoses or one-size-fits-all wellness plans.
You’ll find that our Wichita functional medicine practice is uniquely effective!

This program was the exact structure I needed. I am so grateful! penelopeundercoverTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve struggled with all of the various eating disorders since I was 15. Now, at age 37, for the first time in my life I decided to get help losing weight in a healthy way. Thanks to Entelechy, my relationship with food has completely changed. I’m currently halfway to my weight-loss goal, with a clear vision of how to proceed, I have loads of energy, and I’ve overcome my lifelong struggle with eating disorders! Dr. Jen and Coach Leann are very thorough, and extremely supportive! I also travel a lot and have a pretty unpredictable schedule at times. I really appreciate that appointments can be held virtually, as well as in person. If you think you’re too busy or too tired to make a change, try Entelechy Life.

Carolyn MeyersTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I learned a lot about how to eat clean healthy food and enjoy it. They helped me figure out what most of my underlying issues were with trying to lose weight and how to resolve them. Tammy KingTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Jenn and the team at Entelchy Life has been a godsend. I was at the end of my rope six months ago, not only struggling with infertility but also daily feeling out of control of my emotions and mental well being. After trying multiple other doctors, Dr. Jenn gave me hope that I wasn't just crazy but there was actually something wrong with my health. She and Leann walked with me each step, giving encouragement, tips and a plan to succeed in my overall long term health. At the end of my six month plan, I now have progressed to better health and see a long term plan for correcting my physical issues. And I'm pregnant! Thank you Dr. Jenn and Leann for your incredible support along this journey. Elizabeth FrankeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Life Changing and so worth it! KathyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was tired and depressed with the chronic fatigue, weight gain, gut/digestive issues, increased blood pressure, and hot flashes, struggle postmenopausal. I took the leap to seek out a Naturopathic Doctor. I'm so grateful that my search led me to Dr. Jen Meade at Entelechy. I mostly noticed a big difference when I had reached the detox stage in the program. After completing that things really turned around. I've had increased energy, wake up feeling rested, no bloating, disgestion works great, lower BP readings, weight/inches lost, physically and mentally stronger, and overall so much better. The most important thing I'd say I learned through the program is how and what to fuel my body with to have improved health and wellness. Also the better way of exercising without knocking myself out daily, which wasn't benefiting me. I would recommend Dr. Jen at Entelechy to anyone looking for a better quality of life. I've chosen to stay connected to Dr. Jenn after my completed program, for continued consults, and Leann her office staff, as it gives me a peace of mind to have them on my team for staying healthy. They are both very kind, caring, and knowledgeable. Chris RickersonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Oh my goodness doctor Mead and her team completely changed my life. I will never look at food the same way again. Best investment I have ever made. I learned so much through the process. It was so amazing I put my wife through the program as well.
