Board Certified Physician Associate located in Santa Monica, CA
Susan Powell
Susan Powell, MS, PA-C, is a board-certified Physician Associate and the Founder of Solaris Integrative Medicine & Wellness, a concierge integrative and functional medicine practice in Los Angeles. Her approach is rooted in root-cause medicine: rather than managing symptoms, she works to identify and address the underlying drivers of illness, pairing evidence-based conventional care with integrative, regenerative, and lifestyle-based therapies. Practicing full time through Solaris, she offers highly personalized, high-touch care in the clinic and in patients' homes.
Susan's path to medicine began in movement and human performance. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science from Cedarville University and spent years as a clinical exercise physiologist, master trainer, and rehabilitation specialist — experience that gave her a deep understanding of how physical function, resilience, and overall health are connected. She went on to earn her Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies from Western University of Health Sciences.
As a Physician Associate, Susan has built broad clinical experience across orthopedic spine surgery, where she served as first assist in complex spinal procedures, as well as regenerative orthopedics and integrative primary care at leading practices throughout Southern California. Her clinical focus includes bioidentical hormone replacement therapy and testosterone optimization, personalized peptide therapy, medical weight loss, IV nutrient therapy, and regenerative treatments such as PRP, exosome therapy, shockwave therapy, and trigger point and intra-articular injections. Susan is also highly trained in hands-on care, including John F. Barnes Myofascial Release, craniosacral therapy, and Labor Release Therapy, a specialized technique supporting mothers and newborns through birth-related restrictions, postpartum recovery, and infant latching difficulties.
Her advanced training includes certifications in bioidentical hormone therapy through the Hormonal Health Institute, Pain Reprocessing Therapy, trigger point and intra-articular injections through MyInjectionTraining, Priapus and PRP procedures, Myofascial Release with John F. Barnes, and soft tissue and Sports Fitness Fusion massage through the Hands On Healing Institute. She is also an ACSM Certified Exercise Physiologist and Personal Trainer. Outside the clinic, Susan practices the balanced, active lifestyle she recommends to her patients. She enjoys strength and conditioning training, mountain biking, skiing, hiking, reading, journaling, and meditation.
