About WFW
The tailored healthcare you’ve always dreamed of. We’re dedicated to partnering with you & curating a health plan that works for your life.
Meet the Practitioner Behind WFW
Hi there! I’m Crystal Weise, MSN, FNP-C, AFMC. I’m the founder of Weise Functional Wellness and your functional medicine nurse practitioner!
I began working as a nurse practitioner in 2016 in conventional healthcare, and something about it never sat quite right with me.
Why were you, the patient, being ignored and sent home with “quick fixes” that didn’t really fix anything?
So, I decided to do something about it. No more flippant, meaningless suggestions to “just eat less sugar” or “just exercise more.”
Three years ago, I transitioned to functional health and wellness, so I could help you get to the root cause of the health issues in your life. Here at WFW, you’ll be empowered to truly understand your health, and together we’ll craft a wellness plan that works with your goals and fits into your busy, full life.

That’s a great question! The letters after a practitioners name can be confusing. Here’s a breakdown of mine:
MSN: Master’s of Science in Nursing (from Georgetown University, for me!)
FNP-C: Certified Family Nurse Practitioner (licensed in the state of Maryland)
AFMC: Applied Functional Medicine Certified

Well, I’ll try to keep it brief! My approach to functional medicine is a little different because we don’t just chase symptoms or hand you another generic protocol.
Together, we’ll uncover what’s happening at the root—using advanced testing, personalized nutrition, hormone and metabolic support, and realistic lifestyle strategies designed for busy women like you who want sustainable results.

I’ve worked in conventional medical offices, and I know what works for some doesn’t necessarily work for all—and that includes generic, quick fixes.
At WFW, we’ll listen to your concerns and provide intentional care. We’ll work together to get to the bottom of what’s causing issues and craft an individualized plan than works with you and your full schedule.

I might be a little biased, but I’d say it’s relaxing and fun! You can take a deep breath and let out a sigh of relief when we work together.
I’ll keep it professional and personable because we’re not into that cold, clinical talk around here. You should (and can!) feel comfortable discussing your health.

The WFW Pillars
Movement
Your body was made to move! Exercise is about so much more than building muscle. It also helps support healthy joints, hormones, metabolism, energy levels, and overall well-being. Together, we’ll craft simple & realistic ways to incorporate regular movement into your day—without adding more stress to your already-busy schedule.
Nutrition
A healthy diet is an essential part of feeling your best. The foods you eat every day are the building blocks your body needs to support & sustain your energy, hormones, metabolism, gut health, and overall well-being. But eating well shouldn’t mean following a restrictive diet or forcing yourself to eat foods you don’t enjoy. We’ll focus on incorporating nourishing, whole foods you actually like while also making realistic changes that support your health and fit into your everyday life.
Mindset
Sleep, stress, and mindset are essential parts of your overall health picture. Quality sleep gives your body the time it needs to restore and repair, while healthy coping skills help you better navigate the stressors of everyday life. Cultivating a supportive mindset can make all the difference in changing your health for the better. This means building resilience and learning how to support yourself through both good and bad days. Together, we’ll focus on realistic strategies to improve sleep, manage stress, and create a healthier mindset that supports lasting change.
Gut Health
Your gut is truly the epicenter of your health. A healthy, diverse microbiome helps you digest food, absorb nutrients, support your immune system, balance hormones, and even affects your mood. Supporting healthy digestion and elimination also helps your body effectively process and remove what it doesn’t need. We’ll take a closer look at your gut health, microbiome, digestion, and detoxification pathways to uncover imbalances and build a healthier foundation—because when your gut is functioning well, your whole body benefits.
