Nourish Health & Wellness, LLC

Negative experience: Before this place shifted focus more towards treating depression and mental health with ketamine, it was a functional medicine practice touting the ability to help you figure out your health issues and reclaim your life. I had a mostly decent experience with one of the practitioners (she misdiagnosed me, but came to me a few days later and owned it). But when she left, Ashley’s negligence in responding to me in a timely manner about a medication I was on caused a snowball effect that put me into a health crisis I have yet to fully recover from two years later. This could have easily been avoided had she not taken weeks to get back to me (after several years as a compliant patient who had paid Nourish thousands of dollars). I ended up having two undiagnosed chronic illnesses as well as undiagnosed autism and nobody at that practice picked up on any of it. When confronted at the time, Ashley was dismissive, terse, and shifted blame. I have delayed posting this review because I don’t like to complain and I feared retribution at a pivotal moment when I desperately needed the local medical community’s help. However, I feel strongly that making others aware that Ashley Mannell is not necessarily the caring and professional practitioner you are seeking is the right thing to do. I do not recommend entrusting her with your health. Mental or otherwise. Wishing positive resolutions for anyone who is searching for relief and may read this. You’re never alone! Keep advocating for yourself and don’t let anyone gaslight you into thinking you don’t know your own body or aren’t worthy of the best available care.

Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Ashley for almost 10 years, I wouldn't want anyone else. She is knowledgeable and truly listens. Best experience highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: amazing practice! after years of dealing with doctors who wouldn't listen to me, Dr. Mannell took the time to help me develop a lifestyle and nutrition plan as well as help me get on the right meds to manage my psych diagnosis. honestly one of the few doctors in my life i have felt cared about me as a person

Fantastic experience: Ashley has been instrumental in helping me believe in me and find joy in life. Her kindness, compassion for her patients, knowledge, and ability to reach you is unparalleled. It is not possible to write in words how eternally grateful I will always be for her. She gets 100 stars from me.

Fantastic experience: I honestly can't say enough good things about Nourish. Ashley and Courtney have completely changed (and saved) my life. In the past year, they were able to pinpoint and diagnose an illness that was completely missed by every other healthcare provider that I have ever seen. They are both kind and genuinely care about finding the root cause of your symptoms, both physically and mentally. It's refreshing to work with a practice who balances healing through food and supplements in addition to medication. Finding a healthcare provider who will consider and execute both approaches to wellness has been amazing.

Fantastic experience: I would 100% recommend Ashley and her team! They take such a holistic approach to wellness with real data and test results to come up with a customized plan that actually works. They incorporate nutritional changes, specific supplement recommendations (not just throwing things at problems hoping they stick), and provide amazing support along the way. If you have tried working with other doctors or practitioners and have less than impressed, I would highly recommend Nourish.

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough about the team at Nourish Health and Wellness. I had seen countless doctors to deal with a chronic condition that I was told would not change. I came to Courtney through the recommendation of a friend. They ordered blood work and tests that took a deeper dive into what you get a standard doctor appointment and found the root of my issue and now I am no longer suffering. The team is smart, kind, easily available and I am so thankful I found them. I recommend Nourish highly!

Fantastic experience: Nourish Health & Wellness brings together the skills and wisdom I’ve been searching for in a care team for years. From nutrition education to sleep support to deep listening care for mental health and weight management, the foundations this team is built upon are strong. My own journey has shifted toward wholeness, with a compass pointing toward self care and wellness. I highly recommend Ashley and her team. If you have ever sought care and walked away thinking, “No one is listening to me. I know something is wrong, and I need help.” You’re in luck - here is a team where you will be seen and heard, where help is found. Now I have a support team where I can turn when I need to be reminded how to best care for myself. I have a support team who will remind me with gentle strength, functional medicine based nutrition plans and practical tools for daily living. For these and more, I am thankful.

Fantastic experience: Ashley Mannell and her team are leaders in Functional Medicine! As the first Functional Medicine practice in the Richmond area, Ashley's passion and commitment to her patients is simply unsurpassed. I have had the pleasure of working with both Ashley and more recently with Courtney Harden. Courtney is an incredible asset to the practice because of her kind demeanor, extensive knowledge and her ability to not only uncover but explain complex underlying issues always makes me feel more connected and confident in my treatment. The impact Ashley and Courtney continue to make on my health and quality of life is profound. If you are ready to break the cycle of masking your symptoms and take that first step to healing, this is the practice for you.

Fantastic experience: Truly remarkable and life changing! The knowledge, passion, determination, and commitment I received for my mental well being as well as my guts’ well being from Ashley Mannell’s practice and her team of professionals granted me and my family the right tools and guidance to fully live and love life in a well balanced day to day manner.

Fantastic experience: One of the most caring medical professionals I have ever met. She really listens to you and certainly knows her stuff!

Positive experience: This office has a very holistic approach, which is great. It is hard to find psychiatric care in Richmond, and this office does an extraordinary job. My biggest complaint is they don't always respect your time. Appointments are always running one or two behind. So you end up being seen an hour late for a 30 minute appointment. It's incredibly frustrating when you have other commitments and actually show up on time for your appointments.

Fantastic experience: Extremely pleased with this practice
