THE HEART BEHIND THE BRAND
About Partnered Healing
At Partnered Healing Functional Medicine, we believe real healing starts when you’re seen as a whole person—not a collection of symptoms. Our approach combines clinical expertise with deep listening, advanced testing, and individualized care to uncover the root causes of illness and restore long-term wellness.
Our Mission
To provide compassionate, personalized functional medicine that empowers individuals to heal from within, physically, emotionally, and spiritually by identifying root causes and restoring balance through whole-person care.
Our Vision
We envision a world where healthcare is deeply human. Where patients are heard, supported, and guided toward lasting wellness through partnership and evidence-based, integrative care.
Our Core Values
Our Story
Partnered Healing began with a deep knowing that the traditional model of medicine wasn’t enough. After years working in conventional healthcare, our founder Sarah Rodewald, FNP-C, saw firsthand the frustration and burnout that came with symptom-centered care. Patients deserved more time, more answers, and more sustainable healing.
While studying to become a family nurse practitioner, Sarah discovered functional medicine and began incorporating its principles into her practice. Her belief in this holistic, patient-centered model grew—so much so that she co-founded the Dayton Center for Functional Medicine, which evolved into today’s Partnered Healing Functional Medicine.
Together with co-leader Alexis Carver, FNP-C, and a growing team of like-hearted providers, Partnered Healing has become a sanctuary for individuals seeking clarity, healing, and connection. We don’t rush through 15-minute visits. We take time to listen, to test thoughtfully, and to co-create healing plans that work in the real world.
Whether you’re dealing with chronic fatigue, hormonal imbalances, gut issues, or unexplained symptoms—our team is here to support your healing, from the inside out.
