Background and History

Carolyn “Carrie” Wise, ARNP, established PNW Optimal Health in 2020 after providing care to the Yakima Valley for 20 years since 1999. Carrie started her career as a nurse and nurse practitioner, and has extensive experience in the emergency department. During this period, she saw that many chronic health problems, especially weight gain, fatigue and metabolic dysfunction are very much linked to lifestyle habits which were not commonly seen in traditional medicine as a whole entity.

To bridge that divide, she went back to Gonzaga University and earned her Master’s in Nursing in 2017, while also working full-time in the emergency department, and started PNW Optimal Health as a place to provide the patient care she knew patients needed but didn’t have that could only be provided in a holistic, individualized way. Over the past few years, the clinic has expanded to now offer services provided by five providers, and it is a great resource for individualized wellness care in the Yakima area.

Reviews and Patient Feedback

The testimonials posted by patients on the clinic’s official website show consistent good results in both weight loss and hormone therapy treatments. The clinic has 100 percent recommendations according to Facebook reviews.

Carrie Wise is commended by a number of patient reviews for her non-judgemental, no-nonsense approach, her clinical thoroughness and her warmth. Patients consistently report that they feel truly heard, supported and cared for—usually after years of frustration with others or methods. The enthusiasm and encouragement of team member Holly Petrie is also highlighted here.

One patient stated that she worked with Carrie over a year, and lost over 50 pounds: “She’s a true professional and caring and personable and if I could give more than 5 stars, I would do it.

A TRT male patient reported that he was feeling better in both his mental and physical health, and that the treatment program was affordable.

After a decade of shying away from doctors, another patient remarked, “It’s been an absolutely life changing experience being treated by Carrie, the least judgmental but straight to the point medical professional I’ve encountered. 

One of the patients who had suffered from obesity, previous weight loss surgery and numerous unsuccessful attempts, referred PNW Optimal Health to be, “the most successful program” they had tried.

Testimonials and Quotes

Carrie’s technique, which breaks down behaviors into small steps for patients to build, checks their progress monthly, and takes the time to discuss lab results with them, not just weight, is what makes her stand out as the difference-maker for achieving sustainable results.

Multiple family members and/or friends became patients as a result of seeing individual results according to several testimonials. One reviewer lost 20+ pounds and experienced blood pressure reduction, changes in eating habits and regularity of exercise, and recommended Carrie to “anyone seeking a caring and knowledgeable provider who gets the job done.
