About

I am a Nurse Practitioner and own a Direct Primary Care office in Sioux City, IA. I have been in healthcare for over 13 years. I spent the first 12 years caring for patients dealing with chronic medical conditions. After seeing younger and younger patients getting sick and having my health declining due to lack of self-care I decided to get out of the traditional healthcare system to offer affordable care directly to patients. I joined in on the Direct Primary Care movement providing care to patients 16 years and older for a low monthly membership. Joining the membership model has given me the freedom to also provide hormone optimization, weight loss and anti-aging medication to my patients.
