Meet The Team
Rob Wilson, NP - Founder & Functional Medicine Practitioner
Hi there! I founded Thrive Medical in 2015 after my wife’s health decline during our first year of marriage. After exhausting all conventional medicine routes, seeing approx over 20 doctors in all, I knew there had to be a better way. Thankfully we found functional medicine, which addresses the root cause of illness and she started on the road to recovery. Today she is healthy, vibrant, and the most wonderful mother to our twin girls, Maisie and Britton.
I’m from Scotland, but have been living in the U.S. for almost 20 years. A soccer scholarship brought me across the pond and I have lived here in the U.S. ever since. I love sports! Boxing, soccer, football, and Formula 1 are my favorites. I also love being outdoors, the beach, traveling, working out, and of course, spending time with family.
I have been passionate about spreading the word of functional medicine ever since my wife’s ordeal, and I love that I now get to help patients just like her, take back their health on a daily basis. I truly love what I do. See Rob’s full professional bio here
Ashlee Pitt, RN - Practice Manager & Wellness Coach
Hi! My name is Ashlee. Proud wife and mom to two beautiful girls. We LOVE to spend weekends at our cabin in the woods - enjoying lots of kayaking, swimming, snowmobiling, fishing and endless campfires! I’ve been a registered nurse for over 10 years, working in nuclear medicine and cardiology, endoscopy, plastic surgery and pain intervention.
After years of searching for my purpose in nursing, I was enlightened by functional medicine. This type of medicine was the missing link in bridging the disconnect I was feeling with the conventional healthcare system. Now, knowing I have the opportunity to actually HELP people and build deeper connections with patients and clients has brought so much joy into my life. Rob has been a phenomenal mentor and I look forward to a very bright future in health and wellness.
