About
Hi, I'm Frankie! I'm the Co-Founder of Wisdom, and I began my journey with functional and naturopathic medicine in 2011. Within that one fateful year, I was diagnosed with both melanoma and early detection of cervical cancer amongst a slew of other symptoms. These types of medicine held the answers for my own remission and recovery through nutritional interventions, lifestyle changes and advanced testing.
Building on a background in women’s studies, I became a functional nutritionist in 2013 and an FDN-P in 2019, focusing on the sex-specific causes of chronic and autoimmune diseases.
After 4 years of working as a clinical nutritionist, I co-founded Transform, a breakthrough program in the autoimmune disease space. 2 years later, I started my own private practice and group program, Radiate Wellness, serving women throughout the US who were suffering from hormonal and digestive symptoms.
In addition to my work at Wisdom, I'm currently the co-founder of HerHeartCo, a healthcare technology for CVD prevention.
VIRTUAL NATIONWIDE CARE
Accepting members in 45 states
Starting care with Wisdom is now easier than ever with our out-of-state consulting options!
WE SERVE MEMBERS ACROSS THE U.S., EXCLUDING NY, AL, FL, SC, & TN
Why not in the other 5 states?
ButtonSince lab testing laws in New York make testing options fairly limited, it is often difficult for our members to complete their recommended testing in-state. At Wisdom, testing is our go-to method for uncovering and targeting the root cause(s) of our members' symptoms - so without testing, it becomes less likely that we can honor the quality care experience that we take pride in at Wisdom. Naturopathic care is not yet legal in AL, FL, SC, & TN.
If my Wisdom doctor is licensed in a different state from where I am located, how does this change my program?
ButtonYour program will be just as in-depth and comprehensive as if you were working with a doctor in-state! The only differences:
Your Wisdom doctor will be legally serving as your consultant. Therefore, they cannot serve as your primary care physician.
Your Wisdom doctor may need to add a $10 fee to your lab order so that a physician in your state can legally order testing for you.
Your Wisdom doctor will not be able to prescribe pharmaceutical medication for you. If there is ever a need, we will encourage you to go through a primary care physician near you, or we will happily help you find one.
You will not legally be qualified to apply to your insurance for possible reimbursement for your Wisdom appointments.
