Today we’d like to introduce you to Monica J.R. Williams-Riley, MD.

Monica J.R.. Williams-Riley, MD

Hi Dr. Williams-Riley, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
I opened my practice because I was frustrated with our current health care system, which was not allowing me as a primary care provider to spend the time needed to truly educate my patients on how to truly cure and prevent their health issues. I knew that it was time to take a stand for my patients when I was informed by a supervisor that although she understood why my patients loved me, I would no longer be able to counsel them on what it would truly take to reverse their chronic illnesses; because there wasn’t enough time. A week later, I turned in my notice and began building a place my patients could come and learn how to create lifestyle changes that are customized and sustainable.

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Navigating the solorepreneur path has brought its share of challenges, like funding our growth, marketing to reach new clients, and forming a team dedicated to our mission of providing clients with the best experience possible. It was important that people had a place to reconnect to their health after coming out of a pandemic. I wanted to be a viable part of that process. Fortunately, we’ve been overcoming each hurdle, and I’m genuinely proud of the work we’re doing and the incredible team that stands beside me in delivering outstanding care to our clients.

Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
Deep Rooted Health & Wellness Med Spa is a wellness practice committed to developing customized, functional health plans to teach individuals how to correct their health and lifestyle imbalances so that they can change their health outcomes and therefore, the outcomes of their families and communities. These include not only physical issues but also emotional as well. We expanded to our brick and mortar location in December 2022 so that we could incorporate more therapies and classes to better serve our clients. We do this by engaging each client in a thorough interview and questionnaire as well as getting specific laboratory tests which can reveal micro nutritional deficits and/ or environmental triggers which need to be addressed to correct the imbalances which are responsible for their health issues. We have classes for mindfulness, meditation, and yoga to address these issues in a holistic approach. We also offer IV nutrient hydration therapy to support deficiencies as well. We strive to offer a comprehensive experience!

Let’s talk about our city – what do you love? What do you not love?
I love Atlanta and our surrounding suburbs! We are truly in a place with so many opportunities and cultures. The perfect mix of metropolitan life with country charm. Although the traffic is what is most challenging, it doesn’t outweigh the heart that I have for the city I call home!

Pricing:

  • Services and memberships range from $195.00 – $2400.00
