About Us
Where Primary Care Meets Functional Medicine
Rooted Wellness is founded by a nurse practitioner with over 30 years of experience in nursing and a strong commitment to addressing the root causes of health concerns—not just the symptoms. With expertise in both primary care and functional medicine, Rooted Wellness empowers patients to take control of their health through personalized care, education, and long-term wellness strategies.
Why choose this approach?
Rather than simply addressing surface-level symptoms, functional medicine focuses on finding and treating the underlying causes of health issues. This approach works hand in hand with family medicine, empowering patients to improve their health through personalized, holistic care.
Primary Care (PCP)
Routine check-ups, preventive care, and chronic condition management.
Televisits
Offers convenient virtual appointments for patients who prefer remote care.
Personalized Wellness Support
Combines evidence-based medicine with holistic strategies to help patients improve their health and quality of life.
The Benefits of Functional Medicine
Functional medicine goes beyond treating symptoms—it focuses on uncovering the root cause of your health concerns. This approach provides personalized care that helps you achieve lasting results, not just temporary relief. By addressing the “why” behind your condition, functional medicine empowers you to take control of your health and improve your overall quality of life.
Digestive Disorder
Rather than just prescribing medication for symptoms like bloating or reflux, functional medicine investigates the root cause. This could include food sensitivities, gut bacteria imbalance, or other triggers. The result? A plan that improves digestion and overall gut health.
Hormonal Imbalances
Functional medicine looks for underlying factors—like stress, diet, or thyroid issues—that may be contributing to hormonal changes. Instead of masking the problem with a one-size-fits-all solution, it focuses on restoring balance naturally and sustainably.
Chronic Fatigue
Instead of simply recommending more rest, functional medicine digs deeper. It examines nutrition, sleep quality, hormone levels, and lifestyle factors to develop a targeted plan that restores energy and vitality over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is functional medicine?
Functional medicine focuses on finding and treating the root cause of health issues rather than just managing symptoms. It’s a personalized approach that combines the best of traditional medicine with lifestyle and wellness strategies.
2. How is functional medicine different from primary care?
While primary care is essential for routine checkup and management of acute and chronic conditions, functional medicine looks at the "why?". By combining primary care and functional medicine together we are tailoring your treatment to you.
3. Do I have to stop seeing my regular doctor?
No! Functional medicine works alongside your existing healthcare. Many patients benefit from having both a primary care provider and a functional medicine practitioner working together. *Note: Insurance may not authorize for certain visits if continuing with your current provider. You can consider having Rooted Wellness as your PCP (primary care provider).
4. What kinds of conditions can functional medicine help with?
Functional medicine is especially helpful for chronic conditions such as fatigue, digestive issues, hormone imbalances, stress-related concerns, and preventive wellness.
5. Can I do virtual visits?
Yes! Rooted Wellness offers televisits, so you can meet with your provider from the comfort of your home while still receiving the same high-quality care.
