Michelle Middleton isn't just another healthcare provider prescribing weight loss medications. She's a board-certified Physician Assistant who has spent over a decade in medicine, combined her clinical expertise with her own personal health transformation, and dedicated her practice to helping women like you reclaim their energy, confidence, and health.
As the founder of SPOKEmed, Michelle brings something unique to telehealth wellness: she genuinely understands the frustration of trying diet after diet, the exhaustion of managing multiple responsibilities at the expense of neglecting your own health, and the hope that comes with finally finding an approach that works.

The Physician Assistant Who Understands Your Health Journey Because She's Walked It Too
From Orthopedics to Wellness: A Career Shaped by Purpose
Michelle's medical journey began in Orthopedics at Southeast Orthopedic Specialists in Jacksonville, where she worked alongside board-certified surgeons in a fast-paced, highly sophisticated environment. For years, she managed her own clinic of 25-35 patients daily, first-assisted in surgeries, and trained medical assistants and physician assistant students.
But something was missing. Michelle realized that while she could treat injuries and perform procedures, she wanted to address the root causes of health problems rather than just manage symptoms. In March 2020, during the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic, Michelle made a pivotal decision to transition her career entirely toward wellness and weight management.
This wasn't just a professional shift, it was personal. Michelle had her own struggles with weight and health, and she knew there had to be a better way to help people achieve lasting results.

Founder, Spokemed
Michelle's approach to health coaching comes from authentic experience. She personally used the Habits of Health® Transformation System to lose weight and regain the energy and confidence she had been missing This wasn't just about looking better, it was about feeling better, sleeping better, and having the mental clarity to show up fully in her life and relationships.
When Michelle speaks about blood sugar stability, the frustration of failed diet attempts, or the challenge of maintaining healthy habits while caring for everyone else, she's not reciting textbook knowledge. She's sharing wisdom gained from her own transformation and from helping hundreds if not thousands of women achieve similar results.
This personal experience allows Michelle to connect with her patients in a way that most clinical providers cannot. She understands the emotional aspects of weight management, the guilt that comes with prioritizing self-care, and the hope that emerges when you finally find an approach that works with your body rather than against it.

A Mission Rooted in
Personal Experience
Michelle's mission extends far beyond individual patient care. Having lost her mother at age 16 and grown up without parental guidance, she understands the profound impact that healthy parents can have on their children's lives.
This personal motivation fuels Michelle’s holistic approach to health. She understands that when you sleep better, feel better, and have more energy, you show up differently—for your family, your work, and yourself. Children mirror what they see. When parents prioritize their health, they model habits for their kids that can last a lifetime.
Michelle has witnessed this transformation firsthand—not just in her own life, but in the families she's worked with where entire households have improved their health together.

The SPOKEmed Difference: Why Women Choose Michelle
Michelle's patients consistently describe her as knowledgeable, trustworthy, easy to talk to, and genuinely invested in their success. Here's what makes working with Michelle different from other weight management approaches:
Michelle begins with thorough lab work to identify underlying issues like hormonal imbalances, metabolic dysfunction, or nutrient deficiencies that may be affecting your weight and energy.
Comprehensive Health Assessment
All medications are either FDA-approved or, when compounded options are necessary, sourced from FDA-registered compounding pharmacies that provide certificates of authenticity. You’ll always know exactly what you’re receiving—and that it’s safe, effective, and high quality. I’ve also personally commissioned third-party testing to verify the purity, potency, and safety of compounded medications, so you can feel fully confident in what you’re putting into your body.
Medication Safety and Quality
Rather than quick fixes, Michelle focuses on teaching you habits that will serve you for life, addressing not just what you eat but how to manage stress, improve sleep, and create lasting change.
Sustainable Habit Formation
Michelle understands that your health affects your entire family. She can work with multiple family members and provides guidance that benefits everyone in your household.

Michelle has helped hundreds of women break free from the cycle of failed diets, regain their energy, and create sustainable health changes that last. She's seen patients eliminate medications, improve chronic conditions, and transform not just their own lives but their families' health as well.
