About Us
NPOC Wellness & Hydration
NPOC Wellness & Hydration is a premium, nurse practitioner–led wellness brand dedicated to redefining health through science-backed treatments delivered in a luxury environment. With services ranging from weight management programs and peptide therapy to IV hydration, vitamin injections, and supplements,
NPOC blends clinical credibility with an elevated client experience. Whether through in-person care at our Baltimore and Waldorf locations or convenient telehealth consultations, we empower individuals to restore energy, enhance performance, and achieve lasting vitality. More than a med-spa, NPOC is where medical expertise meets luxury wellness—helping every client feel safe, cared for, and renewed.
Our Story
NPOC Wellness & Hydration was born from a simple yet powerful belief: wellness should be both medically sound and deeply rejuvenating.
After more than a decade in healthcare, our founders saw a gap—too many wellness solutions were either overly clinical and impersonal, or trendy but lacking real science. People were left choosing between sterile care that felt cold or “wellness fads” that lacked credibility.
With NPOC, we set out to create something different: a space where medical expertise meets luxury wellness. Every service—from IV hydration and peptide therapy to weight management and vitamin injections—is designed and supervised by board-certified nurse practitioners, ensuring the highest standards of safety, personalization, and effectiveness.
But beyond protocols and treatments, NPOC is about how we make people feel. From the moment clients walk in—or connect virtually—they are welcomed, cared for, and guided. They leave not only feeling physically renewed, but also supported in their journey toward long-term vitality.
Today, NPOC Wellness & Hydration is more than a clinic—it’s a movement toward holistic, elevated wellness, helping individuals restore energy, boost performance, and reclaim their best selves with confidence and peace of mind.
