The doctor who walked away from the pill-for-every-ill model
After six years as a board-certified internal medicine hospitalist, Dr. Jessica Peatross did something most doctors never do: she walked away. Not from medicine — from a system she felt was failing patients. Trained at the University of Louisville, she became certified in Gerson Therapy, functional medicine, nutrigenomics, and ozone — then rebuilt her practice around one question:whyis the body malfunctioning?
She's now one of the most trusted voices in functional medicine, with expertise in stealth infections (Lyme, parasites, mold), hormonal dysfunction, heavy metal toxicity, and metabolic health. Her Kill · Bind · Sweat protocol has guided hundreds of thousands of people. Her partnership with Kora MD® brings this same root-cause rigor to GLP-1 therapy.
The Dr. Jess Difference
GLP-1 therapy done the
functional medicine way
Most GLP-1 programs are transactional — get the prescription, lose the weight, done. Dr. Jess approaches it differently. The medication is a tool. The real work is understanding why your metabolism got dysregulated in the first place — so the results actually last.
Root cause first
Metabolic dysfunction rarely happens in isolation. Stealth infections, mold toxicity, heavy metals, and hormonal imbalances all suppress metabolism. Dr. Jess's protocol addresses the underlying terrain, not just the symptom.
Microdosing for sensitive patients
Many GLP-1 patients struggle with high-dose side effects. Dr. Jess's approach includes microdosing protocols — lower doses, longer titrations — for patients with chronic illness, mold exposure, or medication sensitivities.
Physician oversight, always
Every Kora MD® prescription is written and monitored by a licensed physician. Labs, follow-ups, and protocol adjustments are built into the program — not an afterthought. This is medicine, not a vending machine.
Medical-grade. Physician-prescribed. Results-driven.
Kora MD® offers a curated set of clinically validated compounds — beginning with best-in-class GLP-1 therapies and expanding into longevity peptides that align with Dr. Jess's philosophy of whole-body optimization.
The gold-standard GLP-1 agonist with the strongest long-term clinical data. Semaglutide works by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone to reduce appetite, slow gastric emptying, and improve insulin sensitivity — leading to sustained weight loss and meaningful metabolic restoration. Dr. Jess's protocol layers in drainage and detox support to optimize results for patients with complex health histories.
Tirzepatide activates both GLP-1 and GIP receptors simultaneously — a mechanism that clinical trials have shown produces greater weight loss and metabolic improvements than GLP-1 alone. For patients who haven't achieved desired results with semaglutide, or who want the most advanced option available, tirzepatide is the frontier of metabolic medicine.
Aligned by design. Not by accident.
Dr. Jess doesn't attach her name to anything she doesn't fully believe in. Here's why Kora MD® was the obvious choice.
The Process
Simple to start.
Serious medicine.
No confusing portals, no insurance hoops. Just a clear path from consultation to your first prescription.
Complete your intake
A brief health history questionnaire so your physician can understand your full picture — including any chronic illness history, medications, and goals.
Physician consultation
A licensed Kora MD® physician reviews your intake and determines candidacy. For complex patients, Dr. Jess's functional medicine lens informs the protocol design.
Prescription delivered
Your GLP-1 — in your preferred format (injection, microdose, or oral) — ships directly to your door from a licensed compounding pharmacy.
Ongoing monitoring
Regular check-ins, lab reviews, and dose adjustments keep your protocol optimized. This isn't set-and-forget — it's real medical oversight.
