About Balm of Gilead Health and Wellness Ctr

Balm of Gilead Health & Wellness Center is a Baltimore-area medical wellness practice serving the Middle River, Maryland, area, with care offered in person at their center and through telehealth. Their philosophy is whole-person care, which means looking at how mood, sleep, stress, hormones, weight, and metabolic health affect one another instead of treating each symptom on its own. Their services include psychiatric evaluation and medication management, medical weight management, women’s and men’s health, healthy-aging care, aesthetics, and virtual urgent care for non-emergency concerns. The practice is led by Dr. Chinwe Okudo, a board-certified psychiatric mental health and family nurse practitioner, so mental and physical health are handled together.

Their mental wellness services are confidential telehealth visits focused on evaluation and medication management for anxiety, depression, insomnia, stress and adjustment concerns, and ADHD when clinically appropriate. New patients choose a care path and complete a secure intake, then meet with a clinician who reviews their history, symptoms, and current medications. The resulting plan may include lab work, lifestyle guidance, referrals, or prescriptions. Their Balm Metabolic weight program adds ongoing monitoring and behavioral habit support, and may include GLP-1 medication for eligible adults. Patients can pay over time through Cherry or CareCredit financing, and urgent care visits are a flat $99 with no membership required.
