About

It all begins with an idea. With a desire to help those around you. At first it seems superficial, like the easiest answer to an interview question but eventually you realize its the fire that fuels your soul, its what makes you you. And with that came Mountain Pine Wellness. After years of traditional, modern medicine, watching family members and friends be told how, when, and where they could get care. I decided why not bring the treatment to them; in the quiet, serene, comfort of my own home. I get the opportunity to cater to your overall health and wellness. From skin care, to aging gracefully, to weight loss and vitamins, Mountain Pine Wellness is devoted to supporting you on your health journey!

Mandi Wilcox

ARNP, DNP-FNP

I am a board certified Family Nurse Practitioner. I was born and raised in Naches, graduating from Naches High School, and am still based in Naches. I live with my husband and our two daughters. I obtained my Bachelors and Doctorate in Nursing from Washington State University. My nursing career began at Seattle Children’s Hospital. After that I moved home and began working in the Emergency Department. While in the process of getting my Doctorate I was working in Labor & Delivery and then spent four years back in the Emergency Department as an ARNP. Recently I opened this clinic to focus on overall health, wellness and to provide the community with a medical option with reasonable prices. With little overhead I can bring educational knowledge and insight without high cost of care. This lets you, the consumer, get great products and services that are affordable without sacrificing safety!

FAQ

  • It is all patient specific and patient driven. We start by making sure you are a good candidate by checking blood work and medical/surgical history. Then we start you on the lowest dose. WE titrate your medicine up monthly if needed depending on your total monthly weight loss and diet/exercise.

  • Once we have hit your goal/target weight then we will work on keeping you on that dose for 3 months. This allows you to develop a consistent schedule with your diet and exercise. Then we will wean you off the medication at an interval that is tolerable to you.

  • Each of these are terms society is using to scare people away from a very beneficial medication. Any dieting out there can cause muscle loss and “Ozempic® face” (= nutritional deficits) if you are not focusing on healthy lifestyle changes. My focus is to help you loose weight and learn to be healthy. We focus on feeding the body nutritious foods, moving the body, and building muscle for overall health. Working to keep you healthy long term, supporting you in keeping the weight off, and aids in the prevention of muscle mass loss.

  • This is all dependent on the dose you get and the area. On average most neuromodulators will last anywhere from 3-6 months. I carry Daxxify and Jeaveau which are both wonderful medications!

  • This will depend solely on you, your needs, and your blood work. I check vitamin levels and other labratory tests to cater your treatment to you. Some vitamins injections can be given 3 times a week and others might be only monthly.
