Gut Health Dietitian Nutritionist FN + ODC's Founder
A Bit About Me
Meet Ashley, a visionary in medical nutrition therapy and functional nutrition.
Ashley launched Oswald Digestive Clinic after honing her expertise at Boston Harvard's Brigham and Women's Hospital and pursuing functional medicine education.
Shortly after, she founded Flusso Nutrients, as a second avenue to empower and support clients on their health journeys.
She transformed the way client care was provided by being an early adopter of telemedicine and even offering home visits, which her gut health clients really appreciated.
Additionally, she implemented a cutting-edge app that facilitated seamless client engagement.
Her commitment to bridging healthcare gaps extends to the clinic's blog, where she passionately contributes, empowering readers with insights on gut health and a root-cause approach.
