Multiple circumstances call for IV hydration support—and we’re prepared for each one. The obvious one: hangovers. Everyone’s experienced them. Rather than struggling through discomfort, let Hydrate Medical® facilitate your swift, comfortable recovery.
Yet hangovers aren’t the only scenario requiring replenishment. Following rigorous exercise, your body demands restoration. IV hydration provides critical fluids and nutrients straight to where they’re required, facilitating muscle recovery and energy restoration.
Post-illness recovery can feel interminable. Why endure prolonged recovery? Our targeted IV protocols are engineered to expedite your wellness return, eliminating persistent symptoms so you feel like yourself again.
Fresh off a flight? Travel fatigue extends well beyond landing. Whether you’ve traversed time zones or simply weathered an extended travel day, Hydrate Medical® can recalibrate your system. Arrive for a rapid treatment and depart feeling refreshed, rebalanced, and prepared for whatever awaits.
Have a small meal beforehand, stay well-hydrated, and don’t forget to bring a valid ID along with your payment method.
Hydrate Medical was founded by Dr Jonathan Leake, MD and Keith Parris, ACNP — emergency medicine providers with over 30 combined years of ER experience. That background shaped everything about how the clinic operates — from the clinical standards and screening protocols to the way nurses approach IV placement. The founders also bring over a decade of personal endurance sports experience, including six Ironman finishes, road racing, cycling, and CrossFit. That combination — ER training and firsthand athletic recovery experience — is where the idea for Hydrate Medical came from.
The founders spent years in emergency medicine watching patients come in dehydrated from illness, overexertion, or a rough night — situations where IV fluids, electrolytes, and vitamins made an immediate difference. They also experienced the recovery gap firsthand as athletes: what works in clinical settings for rehydration and nutrient replenishment is simply better than oral supplementation for acute recovery. Hydrate Medical was built to make that level of care accessible outside of an ER setting, in an environment that’s fast, comfortable, and designed around what clients actually need.
The ER background is the clearest differentiator. Hydrate Medical is owned and operated by Dr Jonathan Leake, MD and Keith Parris, ACNP, with nurse practitioners actively overseeing care across all locations and conducting new patient visits. More than 90% of the nursing team are emergency medicine RNs with over five years of experience — placing IVs, monitoring patients, and managing complications is their core skill set. The drips themselves were built from the science, with careful attention to what works best and at what dose. Beyond credentials, Hydrate Medical was Charlotte’s first IV hydration clinic and has been operating for over a decade, a long track record in a market with many newer entrants.
Most IV drip visits run about 45 minutes from the time your IV is placed, plus a few minutes for the intake screening at the start. Plan for about an hour door to door at our Mooresville location. B12 and NAD+ subcutaneous injections take five to ten minutes. NAD+ IV infusions take four to six hours and are scheduled as longer dedicated appointments.
Eat a light meal before your visit and drink some water on the way over. Arriving dehydrated or on an empty stomach can cause lightheadedness during the session. Bring a photo ID and your payment method — no paperwork is required ahead of time. Wear something with sleeves that can be easily rolled up or pushed back past the elbow. If you have any questions before your visit to our Mooresville clinic, feel free to call ahead.
Mild bruising or soreness at the IV site is the most common thing clients notice, and it resolves on its own within a day or two. Our team will walk you through aftercare before you leave and let you know what to watch for. Serious complications are rare when IV therapy is administered by qualified clinical staff following proper protocols — which is exactly the standard we operate to.
Certain medical conditions — heart failure, severe kidney disease, and some electrolyte imbalances among them — and some medications can make IV therapy unsuitable. The intake screening before every visit is designed to catch exactly this. If something in your history is a concern, your provider will tell you clearly and explain why. We don’t proceed with treatment when we have safety questions about a client’s situation.
