Meet Gina
Hi, I’m Gina—and I’m so glad you’re here. Whether you’ve known me for years or we’re just meeting, welcome.
I’m a board-certified women’s health nurse practitioner, with over 20 years of experience in women’s health. I was a certified labor and delivery educator and lactation consultant for ten years at a local hospital health system. I taught hundreds of couples and coached many of new moms through pregnancy and breastfeeding. I was an adjunct clinical professor teaching bachelor registered nurse students on labor and delivery, and postpartum. I worked at a top ten university hospital health system for twelve years. I spent several years in maternal fetal high-risk pregnancy, fertility, and surgical gynecology.
Why I Started this Practice
What prompted me to branch off on my own? I grew tired of being forced to see patients in 10-to-15-minute time slots, feeling rushed through appointments, unable to fully address all of a patient’s concerns due to insurance reimbursement last. I was frustrated just putting band aids on patients’ problems and not having the time or resources to get to the bottom of their issues.
I wanted more time with patients.
I wanted to address all of their concerns.
I wanted to take a deep dive approach to their symptoms to treat the root cause.
I wanted to restore women to optimal wellness.
I wanted patients to feel heard. Helped. Cared for. Appreciated.
Most of all, I wanted to empower them to take ownership of their health and healing.
A New Approach: Women’s Health + Root Cause Wellness
That’s when I sought training in functional wellness. I researched and read all of the latest data on women's health. I worked with a leading physician in the area who specializes in functional medicine and wellness. I studied at the Institute of Functional Medicine and saw there were other providers out there like me giving personalized care. And that’s when I knew I wanted to same for my patients.
So, I merged the two worlds I love most: women’s health and the concepts and the principles of functional wellness and health.
This practice is the result—and it’s built to give you the care you’ve always deserved.
