22 Years at the Bedside.
Now Here to Help You Thrive.
Saltwater Wellness was born from years at the hospital bedside and the realization that the healthcare system, for all its strengths, leaves the space between ‘not sick’ and ‘truly well’ almost completely unaddressed.
"I've sat with patients through some of life's most critical moments. That shapes you. It taught me that real care is about the person in front of you, not the protocol."

Our Healthcare Provider
Founder & Nurse Practitioner
My name is Nancy Yankovic, MSN-Ed, APRN, AGNP-C, VA-BC, and with more than 22 years in nursing, my career has taken me through every layer of healthcare — from bedside care through life’s most critical moments, to nursing education, to founding Saltwater Wellness as a place where patients can finally get the care they have been searching for.
Those years gave me deep clinical expertise and an even deeper understanding of what modern healthcare consistently misses: the vast space between treating disease and truly living well. My patients were not always sick. But they were not thriving either. Dismissed with “your labs look fine.” Exhausted and searching for answers. I knew there was more I could offer. That knowing became Saltwater Wellness.
Here, I do not treat numbers. I treat people. Every care plan is individualized, every decision is made in partnership with you, and every visit is long enough for a real conversation. That is not common in healthcare today. It absolutely should be.
What We Stand For
The Foundation of Everything We Do
The Saltwater Difference
Named for the ocean, the source of restoration, depth, and life. Everything about how we practice reflects that: unhurried, deep, and genuinely restorative.
"We don't treat numbers. We treat patients. There is a profound difference between simply being alive and truly living well."
True Partnership
You're not a chart number here. You're a partner in your own care, with a provider who knows your story, not a rotating cast of faces.
Evidence-Based & Holistic
We use therapies with solid clinical backing, and we don't dismiss lifestyle, nutrition, and functional approaches that genuinely make a difference.
Time That Matters
Every visit is long enough for a real conversation. Not 10 minutes. Not a checklist. Time to actually understand what's going on.
What Our Patients Are Saying
We let our patients do the talking. These are real people who came to us looking for answers, and found them. Their words mean more to us than anything we could say about ourselves.
