Education and Training- Dr. Doherty spent 8 years in training between school and residency, then spent 10 years in practice before undergoing new Functional Medicine training for the past several years. She obtained her Bachelor of Arts in Biology at Illinois Wesleyan, followed by her Doctorate in Osteopathy at Des Moines University. She then completed a Family Practice Residency, and then completed another residency in Osteopathic Manipulation giving her dual board certification in both Family Practice and Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine. She completed her Osteopathic Residency with one of the brightest luminaries in the field- Dr. Edward Stiles. Dr. Stiles learned directly from the grandson of the inventor of the profession and other legends in the field and has been called the greatest living clinical Osteopath. After practicing medicine full time for 10 years and finding the system lacking, she sought Functional Medicine Certification and started her own practice to serve patients better.
Amy Doherty, DO
The first step in Osteopathy is the belief in our own bodies. The next step is to advance that belief to an intelligent understanding. You will learn that the body is a self-creative, self-developing, self-sustaining, self-repairing, self-recuperating, self-propelling, self-adjusting, and does all these things on its own power.
— A.T. Still, DO
I believe in a world where living in a healthy manner is not a burden or a chore. It is the most natural state of existence for us, as demonstrated by the above A.T. Still quote. I get excited about helping anyone to live the most healthy existence possible. I believe if each person within the ecosystem of a family and community is healthy, that will promote the health of the family, community, and world at large. What is good for me, is good for my family, which is good for my community, which is good for my world.

Morginne O’Boyle
Education and Training- Diana began her career in nursing as a licensed practical nurse in the 1990s before pursuing her transition to registered nurse. She obtained her undergraduate degree from Viterbo University in LaCrosse, WI in 2009. She next obtained her master’s degree from Frontier Nursing University out of Hyden, Kentucky and became certified as a Family Nurse Practitioner in 2017. Before completing graduate school, she worked as a nurse in long-term care and hospital settings, dedicating over 10 years to women's health and obstetrics.
After working in the traditional model for a time, she became discouraged by the constraints of the traditional healthcare system. This prompted her to pursue additional education in functional and lifestyle medicine, obtaining her AFMC certification from the School of Applied Functional Medicine in July, 2024.
Morginne has worked in the holistic medical field throughout her working career, has years of experience doing low level laser therapy. She shares our passion for high quality, root cause, evidence-based care. Morginne has been a local Portage girl her whole life, and previously traveled to Madison to be able to express her integrative health vocation talents. We are so excited to bring her on and expand this talent base in our own community.
Kelsie is another top-notch clinical nurse who also has stunning academic credentials. She has an extra degree in healthcare business management. She obtained this degree to improve the “business of healthcare” which everyone in my practice knows is broken. We are so lucky to have found her and combine her mission to serve patients better with ours as they are so closely aligned..
She will be on maternity leave March through June of 2025 being an amazing momma in addition to an amazing nurse.
