About Gina | Functional Medicine Dietitian

My Story

I've Been Where You Are

Over a decade ago, I was battling the same symptoms you may be dealing with right now — extreme exhaustion, brain fog, digestive issues, heart palpitations, and weight fluctuations that no one could explain.

Despite working with traditional healthcare providers, I wasn't getting the right testing or the right answers. Medications didn't help. And I refused to accept feeling awful as my "new normal."

"I decided to track down the answers myself — and then build a practice to help other women do the same."

I earned my Master's degree from Case Western Reserve University — one of the top programs in the country — and went on to work at Cleveland Clinic, ranked among the best hospitals in the world. I studied with industry leaders in functional medicine, and along the way I reversed my own autoimmune and thyroid issues.

What I learned is that quick appointments and endless referrals rarely get to the why. So I built a practice that does the opposite: the right testing, the time to connect the dots, and a personalized protocol that treats the whole picture — not just the symptoms.

My Approach

Find the root cause. Treat the whole picture.

Conventional care manages symptoms. Functional nutrition looks for what's actually driving them — and builds a plan around you.

🔍

Advanced Testing

Functional labs like DUTCH (hormones) and GI-MAP (gut) reveal what standard bloodwork misses — hidden infections, imbalances, and nutrient gaps.

🧩

Connect the Dots

Your gut, thyroid, and hormones don't work in isolation. I look at how they interact — and how your history, labs, and symptoms fit together.

🌱

Personalized Protocols

No generic meal plans. You get nutrition, supplement, and lifestyle recommendations built specifically for your body and your goals.
