Women often feel so rushed and uncomfortable at annual women’s health visits that the issues in need of discussion are forgotten. Midwife and Nurse Practitioner Sarah Wallis hopes to change that to a positive experience through helping patients feel heard, understood and validated. Wellspring Women’s Health, a newly opened wellness center founded by Wallis, offers a broad range of services with a gentle, integrative approach. From pap tests, period problems and pelvic pain, to natural fertility evaluation and support, to menopause management and hormone balance, she cares for women throughout the life cycle.

“As women, we notice when something’s not right in our body,” says Wallis, “but we don’t often have the courage to make our well-being a priority, especially if we haven’t been able to find help up till now.” Many women, she notes, go five or even ten years from the onset of symptoms until they finally get the right diagnosis and treatment. “By working together as a team and addressing all aspects of health, from the biochemical and physical, to our relationships and emotional life, to how we are nourishing ourselves, we can begin to find real healing.”
