Great practitioners who will listen and advise but not be pushy
Katie Tolley, RN, MSN, CPNP-PC, FMAPS is a PNCB board certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner with over 25 years of child health experience. Katie spent the first few years of her career in obstetrics, bringing newborns into the world. She then moved to primary care pediatrics and community health, where she utilized her additional certification as a lactation consultant. Katie expanded her knowledge earning a Master’s in Child Health from SUNY/Stony Brook University. She quickly added a fellowship in Child and Adolescent Mental Health from Arizona State University.
After a few years in primary care and school based wellness, Katie started noticing how sick kids were, and started looking for a more in-depth way to help her patients dealing with chronic health issues. She started taking integrative nutrition courses, and attending functional medicine conferences with the Institute of Functional Medicine and the Medical Academy of Pediatrics and Special Needs (MedMAPS). Katie became a member of MedMAPS and recently completed her fellowship with the organization, placing her among the top providers in pediatric functional medicine.
Katie has experience working with children suffering with Lyme Disease/co-infections, PANS/PANDAS, Mycotoxin illness and MCAS, ADHD, Anxiety, migraines/headaches, stomach issues, eczema and skin sensitivities, food allergies/sensitivities/aversions, autism, and other neuro-immune diagnoses.
Katie enjoys spending time with her husband, 2 grown children, her dog, Phoebe, being outdoors, and staying active. Outside of the office, you can find Katie teaching reformer pilates, leading kayak tours, hiking, cooking, gardening, and traveling when she can find the time to sneak away.
Katie brings years of knowledge, along with her own personal parenting experience and advocacy for a child with special health care needs to her practice. Being a parent of a child with chronic health issues, all while dealing with her own health problems helps her bring a personal perspective of compassion and understanding to her practice.

Jessica, since we started seeing you I loved how you’ve always fought for our daughter’s. You’ve seen us thru some scary times but ALWAYS place our daughter’s first and that’s why when you moved we decided to follow you. You’re awesome and my daughter’s don’t trust anyone else but you. Continue doing you Jessica, you’re awesome!
Jessica is the absolute BEST! We brought our newborn daughter to Well-Rooted days after she was born for her first appointment with Jessica and she took excellent care of her/us. Extremely informative and made us feel very comfortable with any questions we had. We are very confident in our choice with Well-Rooted and are going to continue to see Jessica as long as we live in the area. Highly recommended!
Jessica, Jacki and all the Well Rooted Staff are amazing. Our Pediatrician retired a few years back and we were in limbo for several years, never feeling like any Dr we saw actually listened to us. After our 1st visit at Well Rooted we knew we finally found “the one”. They listen and take the time to discuss options. They support the patient and put YOU 1st.
As an overwhelmed expecting mother, I was becoming extremely defeated as I interviewed pediatricians to help me care for my son when he arrived. As a nurse, I was searching for someone collaborative, respectful, patient, and would be able to provide insight and guidance with more depth than what I could quickly access on a Google search. Jessica and the staff of Well Rooted is a God-send, exceeding my expectations every visit! Jessica is extremely present during very visits, despite whatever is happening outside the exam room door. She is incredibly kind, gentle, patient and with excellent clinical skills and judgement! She has also been immediately available to me via phone on the weekend, when I have had a concern. I just love her and the entire staff at Well Rooted so much and I couldn’t recommend them enough!
