Sarah, a board-certified nurse practitioner, with over 20 years of experience in healthcare, is dedicated to transforming patient care through functional medicine. Her passion for creating a more holistic healthcare system stems from her own journey with health challenges, which were resolved not through conventional methods but through the comprehensive approach that functional medicine provides.  This personal experience has not only shaped her career but also her commitments to helping others achieve a healthier lifestyle through informed, personalized care strategies.

 

Beginning as a certified nurse's aide and furthering her education with bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Chamberlain College of Nursing, Sarah has a rich background in healthcare. Her early work in emergency medicine highlighted the limitations of traditional approaches, particularly the reliance on quick fixes and the often-fragmented communication within the healthcare system. These experiences influenced her to pursue a specialty where she could offer more proactive, upstream solutions.

​

In her pursuit of advancing functional medicine opportunities, Sarah is particularly excited about contributing to the wellbeing of the Central Illinois community  and beyond. She is eager to share her knowledge and experiences to support individuals in navigating their own paths to wellness. Through her practice, Sarah aspires to foster a healthcare environment that emphasizes personalized care, open communication, and sustainable health solutions. Her goal is to help her patients to live the best quality of life as long as possible.
