History
It was January 2010 when Dr. Katie Hansen embarked on the unforgettable journey of becoming a business owner in Omaha. Having relocated to Omaha for her husband's job, she knew no one. She was also pregnant with her son Duncan. She was up for the challenge! All she needed was herself and one person to make her dream of owning her own wellness clinic in Omaha a reality. Dr. Hansen started with a single patient (who was her neighbor at the time). And as her business grew, she took care of everything, answering the phone and scheduling new patients, all while pregnant and with a young daughter, Hadley, at home. Now, less than a decade after Essentials was one doctor & one patient, Dr. Hansen's dream has grown into 2 locations (one in Omaha, one in Papillion) offering a rounded set of self care and wellness services, with over 40 employees, and thousands of patients!
