Why I Started Wellness for Life - A Functional Medicine Clinic & Spa in Anacortes, WA

A Vision for Empowering Health

The Story Behind Wellness for Life


My passion for empowering individuals to achieve their optimum levels of health has been the driving force behind every aspect of our clinic's vision and mission. My journey began with a deep-seated desire to revolutionize traditional healthcare practices.


Having worked in cardiology previously, I experienced firsthand the limitations of conventional medicine. I found myself merely addressing symptoms rather than addressing the root causes of health issues, leaving individuals on a trajectory of suboptimal wellness.


I felt a commitment to making a positive impact on my patients’ lives, so I embarked on my mission to create a healthcare model focused on empowerment, accessibility, and inclusivity. I wanted to provide every patient with the tools and resources they need to take control of their health and well-being, feeling empowered to become the healthiest, strongest versions of themselves.


Breaking Down Barriers to your Healthcare


Insurance often poses significant hurdles to accessing quality healthcare, dictating patient outcomes and limiting your access to care that is the best fit for you. I wanted to remove the barriers that prevent you from learning about your healthcare options and being empowered to make decisions about your healthcare.


At Wellness for Life, our whole team is committed to healing the root cause of your healthcare concerns, going beyond simply addressing your symptoms to help you feel healthier and stronger from the inside out.


A Culture of Inclusivity and Compassion

At Wellness for Life, inclusivity is not just a principle—it's a way of life. I firmly believe that healthcare should be inclusive and welcoming to all individuals, regardless of their background or circumstances. Our functional medicine clinic & spa is built on a foundation of compassion, respect, and empathy, where every individual is treated with dignity and kindness.


We strive to create a safe and supportive environment where individuals feel empowered to take charge of their health journey. By fostering a culture of inclusivity and understanding, we aim to break down barriers and promote holistic well-being for everyone we serve.
