Your Full Story
Your first session isn't a 15-minute check-in. We go through your complete history — every symptom, every failed treatment, every pattern — and then order the labs that tell us something.
Your full storyFunctional Medicine · Gut Health · Root-Cause Care
Your body has been trying to tell you something for years.
You've been handed a diagnosis, a list of foods to avoid, maybe an antidepressant, then sent home with no real explanation. I'm Dr. Wendy Quijada Hansen, PharmD. I watched that cycle repeat for years as a pharmacist, so I trained in functional medicine to actually break it.

A Different Kind of Medicine
IBS is a description.
It is not a diagnosis.
Most of my patients come to me after years of normal labs, normal scopes, and specialist referrals that led nowhere. Functional medicine asks a different question — not what is wrong, but why your body got here. I look at your gut, your environment, your nervous system, and what you've been eating, taking, and absorbing — and build a protocol that makes sense for your body.
Bloating, brain fog, chronic fatigue, IBS, IBD, leaky gut, parasites — these aren't things to just manage. They're things to understand and solve.
How I Work
Five things I look at in every patient
There's no single supplement that fixes leaky gut, no pill for IBS. Healing happens when you address all the pieces at once.
Food as Information
Not another generic elimination diet. We identify what's inflaming your gut specifically — food sensitivities, microbiome imbalances, nutrient gaps — and build a way of eating that supports your healing.
NutritionYour Nervous System Matters
Chronic stress dysregulates the gut-brain axis — it's one of the most overlooked drivers of gut dysfunction. We address it with practical, evidence-based tools, not vague wellness advice.
Stress & nervous systemWhat You're Being Exposed To
Heavy metals, mold, parasites, and pharmaceutical residue can quietly obstruct healing. We assess your toxic burden and support your body's ability to clear it — something most doctors never check.
Toxins & exposuresA Protocol Built for You
Targeted supplements through Cellcore and Fullscript, follow-up labs, and lifestyle adjustments — all built from your results, not a template. We track how your body responds and refine as we go.
Your protocolYou're Not Left to Figure It Out Alone
Between sessions, you have direct access via messaging. Your questions get answered — not filed away until your next appointment. Your protocol evolves as your healing does.
See the ProcessWhat Your Body Is Telling You
Bloating, brain fog, and exhaustion are clues,
not your new normal.
Your gut affects your energy, your mood, your ability to think clearly. If it's struggling, your whole life feels it. Here's where we start looking.
Labs That Finally Answer Something
I run tests most doctors aren't running, like gut permeability markers, comprehensive stool analysis, and inflammatory patterns. Not the same panel that came back "normal" three times before.
What You're Eating Is Data
Food sensitivities, gut lining breakdown, microbiome imbalances: these all show up differently in every person. We find your specific inflammatory triggers and build around them.
Your Gut and Brain Are Connected
The connection between your gut and brain is real. Stress and anxiety don't just live in your head, they show up in your digestion too. We address both sides, not one while ignoring the other.
Hidden Toxic Burden
Parasites, heavy metals, and mold exposure are real and common, and most practitioners don't test for them. If something is blocking your healing, we find it.
Supplements Backed by Your Labs
This isn't a generic wellness stack. It's a targeted protocol through Cellcore and Fullscript, built from what your specific results show. What your body needs, not what sells well.
A Plan That Evolves With You
Healing isn't linear, and your protocol shouldn't be static either. As your body responds, your plan adjusts, and you get ongoing support so you're never left wondering what to do next.
Her Story
I spent years dispensing prescriptions that weren't fixing anything.
As a pharmacist, I had a front-row seat to what medications could and couldn't do. Patients came back month after month — same symptoms, new prescriptions, no one asking why. That's what led me to functional medicine. Not because I stopped believing in medicine, but because I knew we were only ever treating half the picture.
My practice is intentionally small so I can give every patient the time their case truly requires. I work with people who have complex gut conditions, who've been dismissed, who've run out of conventional options — and who deserve a practitioner willing to dig deeper.

What working with Dr. Wendy looks like.
Three sessions with a protocol built around your body
Session One
We Start at the Beginning
Not a 15-minute check-in. We spend real time on your full history — every symptom, every failed treatment, every pattern that hasn't made sense until now. Then we order the labs that give us real answers.
Session Two
You Finally Get Answers
When your results are back, we sit down and go through everything together. You'll understand what's driving your symptoms — and leave with a clear, specific protocol built around your body, not a template.
Session Three
You Start Feeling Like Yourself Again
We refine your protocol based on how your body has responded. And you're not alone between sessions — direct messaging means your questions get answered, not filed away until the next appointment.
Patient Stories
What it sounds like when you finally gets answers.
"I saw three GI specialists and kept hearing my tests were normal. Dr. Wendy ran tests I'd never even heard of, and we finally found what was really driving my IBS. I've felt better in four months than I did in the seven years before that."
"The bloating and brain fog got so bad I was canceling plans and couldn't focus at work. Dr. Wendy was the first practitioner who didn't just chalk it up to stress. Six months in, I feel like myself again."
"She took the time to understand my whole history, not just my latest labs. She found connections I never would have made on my own. My energy and focus are better than they've been in years."
