About

Beth Bray, APRN, is a Defy Medical care-team provider focused on hormone replacement therapy and integrative wellness. She trained as a registered nurse at Prairie State College, worked hospital floors in orthopedics and oncology, then completed graduate nursing training at Northern Illinois University in 2015. Before joining Defy in February 2021, her nurse-practitioner work included primary care and integrative holistic care. Her published bio frames care as a partnership, with patients involved in building the plan they will follow.

What to Know

Signature approach

Bray combines HRT, lab review, lifestyle context, and patient goals into one conversation. Her hospital nursing years in orthopedics and oncology give her a broader clinical reading of symptoms, while her primary-care and integrative background keeps the plan grounded in daily habits and follow-through. The goal is a hormone plan the patient understands and can participate in, not a lab-only adjustment.

What sets them apart

  • Hospital nursing foundation. Orthopedics and oncology experience gives her a wider clinical base before the hormone-specialty work.
  • Primary-care plus integrative background. Bray entered Defy with both generalist and holistic-care experience.
  • Defy tenure since 2021. She is one of the longer-running APRNs on the current care team.

Before You Book

  • Use her for HRT and integrative wellness. Acute care and unrelated specialty concerns belong in the appropriate primary-care or specialist channel.
  • Request continuity early. If you want Bray specifically, ask during onboarding or follow-up scheduling.
  • Confirm state coverage for telehealth. Provider availability and prescribing rules can vary by patient location.
  • Budget as self-pay. Defy does not bill insurance for visits, labs, or medications.
