About

Victoria Kirby

I was a Practitioner of Family Medicine for over 20 years, but came to know the limitations to the traditional model of health care that are all-too prevalent today. I know that most people need help to find the root causes of illness, and are no longer willing to accept the short-term solutions that the Industry provides today. Medication vs. behavior change, a 15-minute conversation vs. really taking the time to learn about us as unique individuals, and the lack of real empathy provided by the typical ‘factory’ Health Care system that prioritizes the bottom line over patient care.

In 2013, I helped to create a healthy lifestyle program through Nutrition in Motion in Bedford, New Hampshire called The Right Weigh. I have always felt self-conscious about myself, my ability to speak in public, and I recognized this as a roadblock to helping as many people as I can. Engaging an audience, or an individual, has become one of the things I enjoy most in my career. I’ve presented on a variety of topics (General Health, Nutrition through all of our stages of life, Stress Management, and Taking Care of YOU,) to people of all ages. I really enjoy speaking to school-age children, but can pivot any forum to discuss the issues and topics that matter most to you.

I've personally struggled with my weight, hormones, fluctuating energy, and moods. I tried to find answers in our Medical System and in our Diet Culture. I've tried to weave my self-care with meeting the demands of a full-time career and managing life at home with my husband, 2 daughters, and a wonderful dog. I have experienced Trauma, but also know how it feels to heal and thrive despite obstacles placed in our paths (over which we have little control.)

I am a real person, and I bring humanity, compassion and humor to my Practice. My life and career experiences have allowed me to create a tool box with, both, traditional and more natural approaches to helping people heal. I promise to hear you - REALLY hear you. If that speaks to you, I know you have gone for a long time feeling unheard.

You do not need to carry around the "weight" of your past. You can learn new ways to take charge of your health and your life. I partner with amazing dietitians who work with you to "meet you where you are" and develop plans that fit in your life. I'd love to partner with you and support your goals and facilitate your healing. It’s time to live your best life.

Reviews for Victoria Kirby Wellness

"My wife and I started working with Vicky to improve our health just before the COVID pandemic. We were a couple of months into working with her when we were forced to quarantine and had to pivot to virtual visits. Vicky was the most accommodating professional who helped us navigate not only our lifestyle change, but also the stress and anxiety that the pandemic caused. She was supportive, kind, understanding, and above all, willing to listen and offer suggestions on how to keep moving in the right direction with our physical and mental health. She makes the journey manageable and doesn't judge you for any setbacks. Almost two years later, I've lost over 100 pounds through her support and guidance and I've developed habits that will last me the rest of my life. I know that it won't always be perfect and I may lose my focus in terms of my health, but with the knowledge she taught me about eating and exercising in general, as well as how to tailor those things to my specific body, I can always find my way back to better habits and, in turn, better health. Thanks, Vicky!"

"Healthcare Navigator:

There are traditional healthcare options, everybody knows them. What I needed was a healthcare navigator. I needed to discuss my health, get appropriate lab work done, learn about treatment options, be professionally referred to medical and/or wellness specialists and then return to my healthcare navigator to map a treatment recovery plan. Vicki Kirby NP, has been my healthcare navigator for many years and I am forever grateful."

"I just want to share that I absolutely loved the presentation the other night. There was so much great information. Thank you for connecting us with Victoria. She is very down to earth and I know made my colleagues and myself feel much better and have set us on a path to make it through the rest of the school year. I would love to see her present again this year"

"Over 20 years of visits to the ENT, surgeries, high doses of steroids, endless boxes of tissues and utter exhaustion- I have finally gotten answers regarding my health. All it took was one meeting with Victoria and Laura, whom I will forever be indebted to for changing my health's trajectory. The hours spent searching online for answers on sinus and gut health, the tears, the weight fluctuation, the depression/anxiety, and poor diet health all seem worth it after working with the team at Nutrition in Motion. The mystery of "what's wrong with me" is no longer, now, it's the journey to health and happiness. Incredibly thankful for the support and expertise of Victoria and Laura."

"Vicki is the MOST caring, compassionate, competent Nurse Practitioner! I can't say enough good about her. If you're looking for someone who'll listen & guide you in making informed health choices, Vicki is your provider! She helped me heal naturally, without drugs, from adrenal fatigue. My primary ARNP said I was just tired. She didn't get it at all. Thankfully, I found Vicki and she guided my healing, making a full recovery.She's truly the BEST!"

Vicki is amazing! She came highly recommended from a family member and I could quickly see why. From our first appt I have felt so seen- she has a knack for reading between the lines and has such a gentle and encouraging approach to health and wellness. I love how truly holistic her assessment process is, as well as the suggested courses of action. I'm already feeling better after taking some recommended supplements and I love the individualized approach Vicki takes. She had me do lab work to confirm what she believed was going on with me and it was spot on when the results came back. I look forward to continuing to feel better under her care! I highly recommend Victoria Kirby Wellness to anyone who truly wants to take control of their health in a way that feels so much more personal and thoughtful than the "mainstream" medical approach.
