More about Ann Shippy MD
The practice operates on a fee-for-service, cash-based model and offers both in-person and telehealth services. Dr. Shippy focuses on identifying root causes of illness through advanced testing and highly personalized care plans, with a particular emphasis on fertility optimization, preconception health, and generational wellness. She is also the author of 'The Preconception Revolution.' The practice is located at 6836 Bee Cave Road, Suite 114, Austin, TX 78746. The clinic operates on a Monday through Thursday schedule from 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM, providing a structured, four-day work week for staff. For nurses, this represents an opportunity to work in a concierge-style, integrative medicine environment rather than a traditional high-volume clinical or hospital setting. The practice describes itself as close-knit and mission-driven, where each team member's contribution is valued. The environment is described as spa-like, and the small team size suggests nurses would have direct, ongoing relationships with patients and significant involvement in care coordination, patient education, and functional medicine protocols. This is a niche setting best suited for nurses interested in functional and integrative medicine.
The practice is mission-driven around transforming health outcomes by addressing root causes of illness rather than managing symptoms. Dr. Shippy's stated mission is to pioneer the future of fertility and generational health through science-backed, personalized care. The practice values deep investigation, patient partnership, and an intersection of conventional and integrative medicine approaches.

Culture and working life
What to consider
One Glassdoor review describes the workplace as a 'great place,' suggesting a positive experience from at least one employee. No aggregated star rating or sufficient volume of reviews exists to draw reliable themes about nurse satisfaction. The job description emphasizes a supportive, small-team environment and meaningful work-life balance, but these are employer-provided claims rather than independent nurse feedback.
The good
- Consistent Monday through Thursday schedule (8:30 AM to 4:00 PM) supporting work-life balance
- Small, close-knit team where individual contributions are valued
- Beautiful, spa-like clinic environment
- Opportunity to work at the intersection of conventional and functional/integrative medicine
- Learning-rich setting with exposure to advanced testing and root-cause medicine
- No evening or weekend shifts based on stated clinic schedule
The hard parts
- Very small practice with limited career advancement or specialization pathways compared to larger systems
- Cash-based, fee-for-service model means nursing work flows differ from insurance-based practices
- Salary data suggests below-average RN compensation at approximately $39.65/hour, 8% below national average based on Indeed postings
- Limited publicly available employee reviews make it difficult to assess long-term workplace satisfaction
