About
At Empowered Health Institute, two physicians bring functional and traditional medicine together under one roof. Dr. Jessica Schneider and Dr. Paul Monié serve the Tri-Cities area from their Richland, WA office. Both doctors limit their panels to a 400:1 patient-to-physician ratio. That keeps appointments thorough and schedules accessible. New patients start with a 90-minute physical. Follow-up visits run 30 minutes. The practice offers same-day assessments and telehealth via secure video conference.
Membership tiers let patients choose their level of care. The Foundational Membership ($170/month) includes up to six physician-recommended follow-up visits per year, secure messaging, and 24-hour provider response for urgent concerns 365 days a year. The Health Optimizer Membership ($255/month) adds functional medicine services, advanced testing, body composition analysis, and annual mole mapping. HSA and FSA funds apply to both tiers. Health coaching through Erika Zink, NBC-HWC, rounds out the clinical team. Members also receive monthly health newsletters and free access to guest speakers and clinic-sponsored community events.
