Dr. Monica Herrera, DNP, RN, MEDSURG-BC, CNML

Bridging the Gap Between Clinical Excellence and Holistic Wellness

With nearly two decades of experience on the front lines of healthcare, Dr. Herrera offers a unique approach to health that beautifully blends the precision of modern medicine with the power of holistic healing. As a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and a passionate Functional Wellness Coach, she believes that true health is not just the absence of illness, but the active cultivation of vitality in mind, body, and spirit.

An Elite Clinical Foundation

Before stepping into the world of functional wellness, Dr. Herrera built an extensive, 18-year career in traditional nursing, mastering some of the most demanding environments in healthcare. Her diverse clinical expertise spans:

  • Critical Care (ICU): Managing high-acuity patients with precision and calm under pressure.

  • Medical-Surgical (Med-Surg): Navigating complex, multi-system health conditions.

  • Oncology: Providing compassionate, specialized care for patients navigating cancer journeys.

Her natural leadership abilities quickly took her from the bedside to executive healthcare management. Since 2014, she has served as a prominent nursing leader at a fast-paced, Level 1 Trauma Hospital. In this high-stakes environment, she has spearheaded clinical teams, optimized patient care protocols, and championed operational excellence.

The Best of Both Worlds

While her traditional medical background gave her an expert-level understanding of acute illness, it also sparked a deeper passion for preventative care. Dr. Herrera realized that to truly help individuals thrive, healthcare needed to look at the whole person.

Today, as a Functional Wellness Coach, she offers her clients the absolute best of both worlds. She uses her advanced clinical knowledge to understand the physiological root causes of health imbalances, while applying holistic, evidence-based wellness strategies to help clients transform their everyday lives.

Practicing What She Preaches

Dr. Herrera doesn't just coach wellness—she lives it. When she isn't leading healthcare teams or guiding clients toward their health goals, you can find her lacing up her running shoes for a long run or experimenting in the kitchen with vibrant, healthy, and nutrient-dense meals. She believes that moving the body and fueling it with real food are foundational pillars to a joyful, high-energy life.

Whether you are looking to reclaim your energy, balance your body, or navigate your wellness journey with a trusted, highly-credentialed expert by your side, Dr. Herrera is dedicated to helping you achieve lasting, vibrant health.
