Broomfield, Colorado

Hi, I’m Dr. Laura Darby, MD
I’m a holistic integrative medicine and medical esthetics physician and have been practicing medicine for almost 25 years. I plan to open my new practice, Alterna Optimum Health, in the Broomfield area in August/September of this year with my business partner Dr. Don Royal, DC. Alterna Optimum Health will be an Integrative Medicine, Therapeutic Laser and Rejuvenation Center. Our goal is to help you look, feel and function your best at every age. We will be offering alternative therapies, allopathic medicine and medical esthetic services as well as a wide variety of health and wellness educational programs. Through these services/treatments, we’ll help you look, feel and function younger by helping you to balance your life, lose weight, discover food sensitivities, reduce inflammation in your body and diseases, reduce pain, reduce stress, reduce prescription meds, improve sleep, improve brain function and improve your diet, so that you can live a happier, healthier, more satisfying and productive life for many years to come.
Dr. Darby graduated from the University of Texas at Austin in 1987 with a BS in Zoology, a BA in Psychology and a minor in Chemistry. In 1993, she graduated from the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston with a MD degree. She completed her Internal Medicine Residency Program at Presbyterian/St Luke's' Hospital in Denver, CO in 1996.
Dr. Darby has also taken courses in age management medicine, functional medicine, Chinese and western herbal medicine, acupressure, essential oils/aromatherapy, lots of energy work and muscle testing. She has even done training with Dr. Andrew Weil, M.D. in integrative medicine.
Dr. Darby enjoys speaking and teaching classes on a wide variety of health/wellness topics as well as mentoring med spas and holistic/alternative/integrative medicine practitioners in starting and growing their businesses. She works with individuals and groups.
Dr. Darby is also a semi-professional artist in both photography and monotype printmaking. She has had her artwork featured in several galleries in the Denver area as well as in her office and in her home. Dr. Darby has many interests outside of medicine such as: cooking, entertaining, wine tasting, world travel, hiking, biking, skiing, tennis, golf, theater, movies, outdoor concerts, spending time in nature and with her dogs, meditation, yoga, metaphysics, exploring new places, trying new things and meeting new people. She is fluent in Spanish, single, and resides in the Denver/Boulder area.
Our chapter will meet the first Tuesday of every month from 6:30pm-8:30pm at 3 Chicks Kitchen located at 2420 E. Midway Blvd., Broomfield, CO 80020. We welcome everyone to join us for an evening of tasty appetizers, desserts and wine, great door prizes as well as wonderful speakers, all while you socialize and network with other fun, interesting, like-minded people who want to learn more about health and wellness and support local businesses and practitioners in the area.
