Meet Our Founders
At Better Body Connection, your health is in the hands of experienced, highly skilled Nurse Practitioners who specialize in
medical weight loss, hormone therapy, and performance optimization.
Meljun Gomez, NP-C
Founder, Better Body Connection
With over 15 years of experience as a Nurse Practitioner, Meljun has dedicated his career to improving the health and well-being of his patients. His journey began in internal medicine, where he spent six years developing a deep understanding of disease management and preventive care. He then transitioned into physical medicine and rehabilitation, spending nine years helping individuals maintain their mobility, function, and overall quality of life. His extensive clinical experience in these specialized fields allowed him to develop a deep understanding of how the body functions, heals, and performs—knowledge that now forms the cornerstone of his approach to wellness, vitality, and longevity.
Holding a full practice authority license in the state of Illinois, he combines his medical expertise with a passion for optimizing health. His time in rehabilitation medicine opened his eyes to the power of proactive care—not just helping patients recover, but guiding them to perform at their best and prevent decline altogether. This philosophy naturally evolved into a focus on men’s health, hormone optimization (including TRT), ED treatment, medical weight loss, and overall wellness.
Driven by a mission to empower individuals to take control of their well-being, Meljun founded Better Body Connection, a company dedicated to providing innovative, science-based solutions geared towards overall heath, and peak performance. Through personalized care and a holistic approach, he is committed to helping patients feel better, live stronger.
