ABOUT WISDOM & TRUTH WELLNESS
At Wisdom and Truth Wellness, we want to shift the paradigm and set a new standard in healthcare, where the practitioner-patient relationship is built on trust and confidence. We view the doctor/practitioner as a teacher, not as an emergency solution to your symptoms.
We are working towards building a multidisciplinary practice the first of its kind in West Texas: a place for families to come and get holistic healthcare – from acute care to chronic illness to wellness care.
Our Mission
At Wisdom and Truth Wellness we create a safe place to be seen, heard, and cared for. We are a collective team of practitioners advocating for the individual’s needs, equipping them to trust the natural design of the body.
Our Vision
To set the standard for education on healthcare specifically related to women's health, pediatrics, and families. Our goal is to inspire and enable you to advocate for yourself and take responsibility for your health.
Our Core Values
Humility
Confident humility is a hallmark of our staff. Confident enough to make decisions and humble enough to admit when you don’t know. There is no room for pride, especially from our doctors/practitioners!
Honor
We honor each other and our patients, placing heaven's value on them regardless of our differences.
Initiators
We are initiators in all areas – problem-solving, relationships, how to better the inner office workings, etc. If something needs to be done or changed, take initiative on communicating that to the right people and make it happen! Don’t wait around for someone else to move the needle.
Self-Development
We will do this as a team, but you are also expected to have a level of personal self-development. Always green and growing – not only in health-related topics, but in all areas.
Excellence
You will be expected by staff and patients to excel at customer service and bedside manner. Therefore you must have awareness of how you best replenish yours. We all have days of energetic constipation, but as a rule, you will be expected to operate as energy givers.
MEET OUR FOUNDER, DR. ALLANA PATEL
Dr. Allana Patel was born and raised in Fruitvale, a small East Texas town, by a holistically minded mother who always tried the natural route before turning to other options. From the time she was 5 years old, Dr. Allana has been seeing a Chiropractor.
Her deep desire to teach people how to live healthy lifestyles and properly fuel the bodies God gave them led her to pursue the medical field, but it was not until her senior year of college that she knew she wanted to be a Chiropractor. Once she began to learn about how God designed the body and all of its amazing capabilities to self-heal, her desire to educate families with the knowledge she gleaned began to drive her forward.
With a Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise and Sports Science and minor in Biology from Texas State University, Dr. Allana went on to attend Parker University where she received her Doctor of Chiropractic Degree, Bachelor’s Degree in Anatomy, and Bachelor’s Degree in Health and Wellness. She is also Webster Certified and NBCE Advanced Acupuncture Certified. With all her degrees, the greatest lesson she has learned is that God is faithful and He is good.
