The Spirit of Wild Heart Healthcare
In a world (and a healthcare system) that can feel broken, we believe that real human connection is an important part of healing. We provide care that is based in science, focused on individual patient's needs, and free from shame and stigma. We trust our patients to know their own bodies and make the choices that are right for them.
We offer the kind of gentle, thoughtful care that is often hard to find in larger healthcare systems.
We believe healthcare can be different.
Our Values
Pleasure
We center pleasure in our lives and work. For us, pleasure includes many experiences, such as love, joy, peace, rest, connection, and doing what feels meaningful. We live in a culture that often tells us to put our own needs last and suggests that seeking pleasure is selfish. We see things differently. We believe that understanding our feelings and needs is an important part of living well. When we pay attention to what brings us joy, comfort, and fulfillment, we can better understand what we need and take steps to care for ourselves.
Connection
We believe that connection and belonging are basic human needs. Healthcare should help people feel more, not less, connected - to their bodies, their inner strength, the people they care about, and the providers caring for them.
We work to build trust through honest communication and meaningful relationships with our patients. We believe that feeling connected can support healing; in many ways, that connection is healing all by itself.
Authenticity
We strive to create a space where everyone feels welcome to be their authentic selves. We make room for all parts of being human - joy, sadness, vulnerability, anger, confusion, pleasure, grief, and celebration.
We meet ourselves and our patients with compassion, understanding, and acceptance. We believe everyone deserves a sense of belonging, not judgment. We approach our work with accountability, humility, and a willingness to keep learning.
Care for you
Your body and your health are unique. Your life experiences, history, identities, values, and the world around you all shape who you are. We believe these important parts of you should be respected and honored by anyone involved in your care.
We are committed to meeting you with openness and respect. We move at your pace and work alongside you to support your goals. We also strive to challenge systems that create barriers to health, dignity, and belonging, so that everyone can be treated with the care and humanity they deserve.
