What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an opportunity to provide evidence-based, patient-centered endocrine, thyroid, weight-management, and women's hormone care, with meaningful patient education and long-term chronic disease follow-up.

At Charleston Thyroid Center, I evaluate and manage endocrine and thyroid disorders, including thyroid cancer, while maintaining an average of 15 comprehensive patient encounters daily.

I develop individualized, evidence-based treatment plans for autoimmune thyroid disease, medical weight loss, and female hormonal disorders across the lifespan. I prioritize patient education around medications, disease management, nutrition, physical activity, behavioral interventions, and long-term follow-up.

My DNP training, multi-state APRN licensure, and earlier oncology and infusion nursing experience support thoughtful, patient-centered chronic disease care.
