Have you spent hours googling symptoms only to be told that your labs were "normal" or being told medicine was the only option? What if there's a better way? This is where functional medicine comes in
In my basic classes, as well as my masterclass series, I make it my goal to teach you about all the dominos that have fallen to create your unique set of symptoms. By giving you a foundation of understanding, then teaching you to think like a doctor, I want to help guide you towards diet and lifestyle changes which will have positive impact on your body and set the stage for redefining what health looks like for you.
On the fence?
consider what your health could look like if you...
HAD MORE ENERGY
Imagine if your day to day life didn't leave you feeling completely zapped. My goal is to help you understand what robs your body of vitality so that we can recharge and renew your system.
FELT MORE HORMONALLY BALANCED
Regular cycles. No more heavy bleeding, reduced moodiness, anxiety and headaches around ovulation or periods. No more hotflashes/night sweats. These are just a few of the positive improvements I routinely see.
WOKE UP FEELING REFRESHED
Sleep hygiene is essential to supporting overall health and maximizing detoxification.
If you feel overwhelmed, ignored or frustrated, you're not alone
I have sat across the table from countless patients that actually apologize to me, their doctor, for their long list of symptoms. My responce is generally, "it's okay, that's my specialty." You're not broken, our system is and I am here to teach you a better way which leads us down the path of understanding and correction.
Over the past 15 years, I've helped thousands of people reach their health goals. Along the way I've picked up titles and certifications, but nothing makes me feel as accomplished as being able to watch my patients come to life, feel empowered, and say goodbye to their health labels. You deserve to be more than just another hypothyroid or PCOS case. You deserve to understand what's going on, get answers, and have guidance; I can't wait to give that to you!

"Her knowledge of how the body functions and what it needs to not just survive but to thrive is amazing!"
When I came to Dr. Ballard roughly a year ago, I knew something had to be off with my hormones. I was dealing with anxiety and nausea (especially around/during my period). I also struggled with not having energy to do what I wanted to do. She ordered blood work to be done and I took a DUTCH test. Blood work came back good. The DUTCH test showed that I was in postmenopausal stage (I am 33. Too young for that!) and I also had elevated cortisol levels. Dr. Ballard started me on a supplement regimen and also told me what foods/drinks to take daily to help get things balanced back out. The regimen she gave was not overwhelming and easy to follow. If I can handle it as a homeschool mom of 3 littles then anyone can! It took time for my body to deplete so it will take time to heal, but I am well on my way and doing SO much better! If you are looking for a functional medicine doctor that truly cares about your well being and doesn’t view you as just another number or patient, Dr. B is who you want! Her knowledge of how the body functions and what it needs to not just survive but to thrive is amazing!

I get it
"Healthcare" is not about health anymore
In my brick-and-mortar practice I see patients all the time that are fed up with the merry-go-round of appointments, labs, medications, specialists, more labs, and more meds. I don't believe this is what healthcare should be. I don't want people to medicate something that's dysfunctional. I want to help them correct it! I truly believe that the body is designed to heal and that if we can figure out where things are going wrong, and fix those issues, the body will right itself. Sometimes, you just need a little guidance to know where and how to look for the things going wrong.
