CHARLYNE SPANGLER

Hello! I’m Charly, the founder and owner of Wellness Redefined. I have been an RN for 16 years and a Nurse Practitioner for 12. I started my nursing career in the intensive care unit and worked in primary care and urgent care for 10 years as a nurse practitioner. In 2020, I completed Doctorate of Nursing education with a focus in direct primary care followed by functional medicine certification through the Institute of Functional Medicine. Since having children of my own, I started questioning everything, and after 10 years in conventional practice, pushing pills for every illness and complaint, I realized I wasn't truly helping anyone. So for the past 6 years, my mission has been root cause medicine, figuring out the “why” when other practitioners won’t, and preventing disease before it ever starts. After discovering my passion for direct primary care and functional medicine, I realized the only way to help more people was to pave my own path. So in 2023, I opened the doors and shut some others and Wellness Redefined, LLC Functional Medicine and Direct Primary Care was born. A unique healthcare model that thrives by getting patients healthy, not keeping them sick.
