Amy Herrmann, MSN, FNP-C

Founder and Nurse Practitioner.

Nearly twenty years in medicine, and the same question the whole way through. Not just what is wrong, but why.

Root WorksHer story

Twenty years of asking why.

Amy has spent almost two decades as a medical professional, and functional medicine has been the thread running through all of it. Long before it was the thing everyone was talking about, she was the one staying late to look at the whole picture, convinced that symptoms are a signal rather than the story.

That conviction is why Root Works exists. She built it as the practice she always wished she could refer people to, where there is time to dig, room to ask questions, and a plan that fits the life you actually live.

“We treat the root so your body can work.”
