welcome to Well Public
I’m Nicole, the gut health advocate behind the Well Public vision.
I’m also a nurse practitioner with a long-time passion for disease prevention and whole body wellness. I earned my Master of Science in advanced practice nursing from Kent State University in Kent, Ohio and I am trained in both emergency medicine and dermatology at University Hospital in Cleveland, Ohio. In addition, I am certified in integrative nutrition and functional medicine — with completion of academic training at Cleveland Clinic’s Center for Functional Medicine.
After experiencing health issues of my own, I decided to seek out a more holistic, evidence-based approach. Why? Although I was seen by well-meaning providers, I had minimal improvement of my symptoms with conventional medical practice recommendations.
Through my studies, I incorporated key concepts from integrative nutrition & functional medicine. I changed my day-to-day habits and committed to a weekly routine that felt nourishing & healing for me. And the results were life-changing.
I started Well Public in 2019, because I believe healthcare should be better. In the emergency room, the majority of cases seen are preventable, mainly complications of lifestyle diseases like diabetes, hypertension, heart problems, stroke, dementia, and certain types of cancer. The reality is, our conventional healthcare system lacks a whole body approach to health and healing —modern measures often do not address the underlying causes of dysfunction.
Well Public was founded to help bridge this gap. I wouldn’t have arrived at this systems-based (functional) process without my education, training, clinical experience, and the depth in life. And it’s important for me to share that I am grateful that we have advanced modern medicine for acute care situations, as I have witnessed the life-saving benefits.
Research indicates that a systems-based, gut-supportive regimen not only prevents disease but saves. I believe this information can be transformative when implemented into a consistent health routine.
Well Public’s mission is for you to experience the healthiest version of yourself and feel confident knowing the science behind it.
I’m convinced that food and lifestyle strategies are foundational for well-being, self-healing, and disease prevention. And I hope somewhere along your wellness path, I’ll be able to positively affect your health.
I’m so happy you’re here.
