Janet Baker Registered Nurse, Owner at enrG Wellness

A medical expert in integrative and functional medicine, with a passion for naturally improving the body’s metabolism to help promote healing, weight loss and care, especially for those with autoimmune disorders and metabolic diseases.

Janet Baker, RN, has worked in integrative and functional medicine since 2007. Through functional medicine and weight management, she assists people to heal the body with necessary nutrients and improved metabolism. In addition to helping people achieve optimum health, her interests lie in networking and collaborating with like-minded practitioners to promote the practice of functional medicine in the Gulf Coast area.

In the medical field since 1995, Baker began her career in nursing at the University of Alabama at Birmingham Hospital where she worked in the intensive care units. She later worked at St. Vincent’s East as a charge nurse in orthopedics. But her most challenging role as a nurse was helping to care for her father when he was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 81. Her father’s age challenged her to look outside of traditional medicine to help him continue to live his life without pain or surgery.

Her father’s cancer journey and her own personal journey with an autoimmune disorder led Baker to specialize in working with patients who have been diagnosed with autoimmune and metabolic diseases. “My personal health journey with Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis gives me an insider’s picture of what health care should look like,” she says. “I’ve created a practice designed around wellness and seeking permanent health solutions to keep our patients on the correct nutrients.” She has also extensively investigated the role nutrition and genetics play in improving patient lives.

Offering pharmaceutical grade supplements and health foods, enrG Wellness licensed medical staff is trained to guide clients to the correct products. Products and services include anti-aging therapy, IV therapy, ozone, therapy, oxygen with aromatherapy, vitamin C infusions, bioresonance therapy and NAD and peptides that offer DNA repair functions. “We are able to help so many,” says Baker. “Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, opioid and alcohol addictions respond very well with NAD and peptides, helping patients see long-term continued benefits.”

Clients at enrG Wellness are usually looking for a different way of being treated than what they have already experienced. “Our clients have typically been around the traditional insurance model for medicine, and it has failed them. I am humbled by the effects of what we are able to achieve,” says Baker, adding, “Every day is special at enrG Wellness!”
