Modern, outcomes-driven care with old-school fundamentals.
Michael Bartuseck is a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner with a background in exercise physiology, giving him a strong foundation in movement, nutrition, and real-world health. With over a decade of experience across primary care, urgent care, sports medicine, weight management, and hormone therapy, he brings a practical, whole-person approach to virtual care.
Michael’s philosophy is simple: Healthcare doesn’t need to be complicated.
He cuts through trends and gimmicks and focuses on the fundamentals that have always mattered — nutrition, movement, sleep, stress, and sustainable habits — then blends those basics with modern medical tools to help patients feel better and prevent disease. He provides full-spectrum virtual care, including sick visits, chronic condition support, hormone optimization, medical weight management, lifestyle guidance, and preventive care.
Patients value his straightforward explanations, realistic plans, and outcomes-driven approach that actually works for real people with real lives.
Simple foundations. Smart, modern care. Real outcomes.
Healthcare doesn’t need to be complicated. At Root + Revive, we cut through trends and gimmicks and focus on the fundamentals that have always mattered — nutrition, movement, sleep, stress, and habits. Then we combine those time-tested principles with modern tools and therapies to help you feel better, prevent disease, and achieve real, lasting outcomes.

Dr. Denay Bartuseck is a doctorate-prepared pediatric nurse practitioner and board-certified lactation consultant with over a decade of experience supporting newborns, infants, and families. Her background spans primary care pediatrics, newborn care, lactation support, and parent education, giving her a grounded, practical understanding of what children and parents truly need.
Like Root + Revive’s philosophy, Denay focuses on simple, common-sense, outcomes-driven care — helping families feel confident by blending modern clinical tools with the fundamentals that have always mattered: feeding, sleep, development, and supportive guidance.
She has cared for hundreds of families in both clinic and community settings and has taught and trained future nurses and medical assistants. Her strength lies in making early parenthood feel less overwhelming and more supported.
Denay is currently building the next phase of the practice:
Milk + Medicine, launching in 2027 — a newborn and pediatric virtual care and lactation program offering feeding support, newborn visits, medication-safe breastfeeding guidance, and practical, judgment-free help for families.
At Root + Revive, Denay brings a steady blend of clinical expertise, maternal insight, and a back-to-basics approach that aligns seamlessly with the mission of helping people — and families — feel better with care that actually makes sense.
Born out of frustration with overcomplicated healthcare, Root + Revive was built on a simple belief: people get better when we return to the fundamentals.
Modern medicine has become noisy — trends, gimmicks, conflicting advice, and systems that prioritize speed over connection. We wanted something different.
Root + Revive blends old-school common sense with today’s best tools.
Movement, nutrition, sleep, stress, hormones, habits — the basics that actually move the needle — paired with modern labs, virtual access, and personalized treatment plans that meet people where they are.
We started this practice to give patients something they rarely experience anymore:care that is practical, personal, outcomes-driven, and grounded in real life.
Root + Revive exists to cut through the noise, simplify the process, and help people feel better using what works — not what’s trending.
Expert telehealth for whole-body wellness.
