Healthy Connections

We practice medicine with curiosity, compassion, and connection as our core values. Dr. Horacek and his wife Heather Nielsen founded Healthy Connections on the belief of participatory care where the patient is an instrumental partner in returning their body back to health (and keeping it healthy). And that it's not about pre-determined ideas about a diagnosis without a full understanding of a patient's situation. We prioritize our relationships with each individual client, and believe healthy relationships with yourself, your family, your community, and our planet are the foundation for all individual healing and wellness. Authentic healing happens within safe, caring, and healthy relationships. Our mission is to meet you where you are, and partner with you to create the health and happiness you desire. The medical community is starting to recognize that most disease starts in the gut, and without taking the gut into account, no autoimmunity and inflammation can achieve true resolution and relief. We integrate findings from the most recent research, along with decades of knowledge and experience that our team has accumulated.
