Meagan Yauilla

Board Certified Family Nurse Practitioner

Functional Medicine Provider

My name is Meagan Yauilla, and I am a certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner with nearly 20 years of experience in healthcare. My background is primarily in Primary Care, with a foundation in emergency medicine nursing. Over time, as I continued to work within the conventional healthcare model, I began to notice significant gaps in patient care.

I became a nurse practitioner because my true passion was to help people, but it quickly became clear that while I could often help patients feel better in the short term, I wasn’t addressing the underlying causes of their problems. Time and again, patients would present with normal lab results but still feel unwell—frustrated, sometimes tearful, and desperate for answers that I couldn’t provide.

In my search for solutions, I began researching my own symptoms and stumbled upon what I now know as functional medicine. Functional medicine approaches the body as a complex, interconnected system. Instead of simply treating symptoms, we look at the whole person, asking “why” until we identify the root cause of each condition. From there, we focus on addressing the underlying issues to achieve lasting health.
