About Polly Baltes, MSN, MBA, APRN

With over three decades of healthcare experience, I began my journey as a Registered Nurse in 1989 before advancing to become a Primary Care Nurse Practitioner. My extensive clinical background, complemented by master's degrees in both Nursing and Business Administration, has shaped my comprehensive approach to health and wellness.

My Philosophy

Throughout my career, I've witnessed firsthand how conventional healthcare often addresses symptoms rather than causes. My passion lies in looking beyond quick fixes and medication-based solutions to uncover the root causes of health challenges. I believe that when we address these underlying factors, we empower people to truly thrive.

I'm committed to helping my clients feel their absolute best so they can experience life to its fullest. By combining my medical expertise with a holistic understanding of wellness, I partner with clients to create sustainable health transformations that last a lifetime.

Beyond the Practice

When I'm not working with clients, you'll likely find me exploring the outdoors, hiking scenic trails, or capturing nature's beauty through my camera lens. I also find creative balance through pottery and jewelry design, where the meditative process of working with various materials offers me the same sense of presence I encourage in my clients. My pottery practice became even more special when my talented son crafted a pottery wheel for me – a cherished gift that represents both his incredible skills and our shared appreciation for creativity.

My creative passion has evolved into Designs by Polly Baltes, my jewelry shop where my sister, Vicki, and I craft unique pieces that reflect our love of natural elements and artistic expression. I invite you to explore our collections at pollybaltesdesign.com.

I've been blessed to share life's journey with my high school sweetheart, who has been my partner through every adventure and career milestone. Together, we've raised our son, who fills us with immense pride.

My personal and professional lives are guided by the same core belief: that understanding the "why" behind our challenges is the first step toward meaningful transformation. I look forward to helping you discover your path to optimal wellness.
