Our team
Dr. heather Gagliardi
Heather has worked in healthcare since 2011, beginning her career as a nursing assistant and then eventually going to nursing school and working as a critical care nurse before pursuing her education in Chinese Medicine. She earned a Bachelors of Science in Nursing from Duquesne University in 2017 and earned both her Masters and Doctorate degrees in Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine in 2024 from Daoist Traditions College of Chinese Medical Arts. She strives to support her patients and partners with them as they navigate their unique journeys to wellness. She is certified through the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) and licensed to practice acupuncture in the state of Kentucky.
When she’s not in the office, you can find Heather doing Crossfit or training for a race. She’s completed several marathons, including the Boston marathon, a half Ironman (making her only half-crazy), and an ultramarathon. In her downtime, Heather loves to spend time at home snuggling with her three dogs and enjoying quality time with her husband and son. Being a mom is one of her proudest achievements.
Ryan Gagliardi - Office Support
As a family-centered business, Ryan serves as a part-time office support person — helping with odds and ends around the clinic. Ryan is proud to support Heather’s mission of bringing integrated care to the Richmond/Berea community. When he’s not working you can find him playing with his son and his dogs, hiking or spouting off cheesy jokes to make his wife laugh.
