Dr. Yasmin Wells, DMSc, MHS, PA-C, CFNMP
Medically trained.
Functionally focused.
Dr. Wells is a licensed medical provider grounded in evidence-based medicine, functional, and integrative care. Educated at Duke University School of Medicine for her Physician Associate training, she brings the rigor of medicine into root-cause, functional care — so you get the best of both worlds.
This is the heart of why she built Praeva. Too many people settle for managing symptoms with medication instead of uncovering what's actually driving them — or get told their labs are "normal" when standard ranges are far too broad to catch the full picture. Praeva is for those who want real answers: advanced testing most settings don't offer, a path to optimize their health and step off medication where possible, and the time to actually be heard. Good care can't be rushed into fifteen minutes — it takes thorough questions, deeper labs, and a clear plan to follow. That's the practice she set out to create: one that goes a step beyond.
Meet Yasmin →Patient Stories
“I had been dismissed by three different doctors. Within two months of working with Dr. Wells, we identified the root cause of my fatigue — something no one else had ever tested for.”
“After years of being told everything was fine, Dr. Wells ran a full panel and found three things no one had ever caught. I finally have a real plan — and it's working.”
“I don't have any major symptoms — I just wanted to get ahead of my family history. The depth Dr. Wells brought to my case was unlike anything I'd experienced in 20 years of physicals.”
“Six months in and my cholesterol numbers are the best they've ever been. No statins — just a real understanding of what was actually happening in my body.”
