Holistic Gynecology

Your annual exam doesn’t have to be miserable.

At Nettle Wellness we offer compassionate, holistic gynecological care that inspires and supports.

Visits are comprehensive and holistic, with time for both counseling and clinical assessment. We’ll go over general wellness, nutrition, and emotional health, as well as any lab work and annual tests needed. Prescription medications and outside testing can be ordered as needed. You’ll spend 80% of your visit fully clothed chatting on a couch. I never use stirrups and provide soft cotton gowns. When it’s time for your exam, I ask before I do anything and will explain everything I do and why we are doing it. I want you to leave feeling empowered, informed, cared for and listened to.

Some of the services we offer are:

STI testing

birth control (hormonal and non-hormonal options)
diaphragm fittings (yes people still use these!)
IUD insertions
fertility & preconception
termination & miscarriage support
annual exams
breast / chest exams
pap smears
mammogram referrals
lab work/screenings

Ready to book your GYN visit?

You can book your GYN visit directly online—no phone call or consultation needed!

Your visit is 60 minutes. We’ll spend most of that time talking and getting to know you: reviewing your medical history, discussing your physical and emotional health, answering your questions, and figuring out the best, most holistic way to care for you.

If you need an exam, Pap, cultures, or other testing, we’ll talk through what’s recommended and why. Bloodwork is sent to a laboratory that accepts your insurance, and coverage will depend on your individual plan.

What about insurance?

Nettle Wellness is built around the idea that you deserve time, personal attention, and care that is actually tailored to you.

GYN visits are paid for at the time of service. At the end of your visit, we’ll provide you with a receipt that you can submit to your insurance company for possible out-of-network reimbursement. You may also use an FSA or HSA card if your plan allows.

What if I want to become pregnant?

If pregnancy is something you’re considering down the road, we can talk about that, too. Prenatal care works a little differently with insurance, and we work with many insurance plans on an out-of-network basis. Depending on your plan, insurance may cover a significant portion of your care.

For now, if you’re looking for thoughtful, unrushed, personalized GYN care, you can choose a time that works for you and book directly online.

If the cost of a visit feels like too much, please let us know. We really want to make this kind of care accessible and work with you to find a way to make it possible. Send us a message!
