About Megan:
Megan Anderson, ANP, is a Nurse Practitioner, who received her nursing degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2004. Megan worked as a staff nurse in both pediatric cardiology/surgery and gynecology/oncology for 3 years before starting graduate school at the University of Illinois at Chicago in 2006. She worked at a Federally Qualified Health Center for 3 years during graduate school before becoming a Board Certified Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner in 2009.

From 2017 until the start of COVID in 2020, Megan worked at a functional medicine clinic in town called Balanced Well-Being Healthcare.  There, she grew as a clinician and honed her skills with functional medicine diagnostic and treatment options. Helping people address underlying chronic issues and get back to feeling their best is what feeds her soul, and she feels grateful every day for the opportunity to help people identify ways to feel and live their best life.  She has since continued to work in a functional medicine practice, seeing patients all over the country in a virtual manner, with the California Center for Functional Medicine.  Women's health concerns, autoimmune conditions, and gut health are her favorite things to address with patients.
