About

I am a Board Certified Family Nurse Practitioner, Surgical First Assistant located in Northwest Indiana. My background originates in the operating room where my career started as a spine & orthopedic RN, Surgical First Assistant. After I shifted into the Nurse Practitioner role, I became interested in helping my patients find alternative options to surgery. I began researching neurotoxin therapies, such as Botox intramuscular injections, learning about the amazing pain relieving effects, particularly in patients with cervical (neck) disorders, chronic migraines, and teeth grinding or bruxism. I am pleased to be able to offer these therapies as alternative options for my chronic pain patients. I also offer the facial neurotoxin aesthetics treatments for my patients where I treat Crow's feet, forehead lines, perform lip flips, eyebrow lifts etc. 

Managing arthritis patients daily, I understand the importance of maintaining a healthy BMI for overall health and wellbeing. I have since incorporated several medical weight loss options into my practice including injections such as GLP-1 medications (semaglutide or liraglutide also known as Ozempic, Wegovy, Victoza or Saxenda), hormone therapies, and many others. Understanding that injections may not be for everyone, I also offer oral weight loss medications adjusted to meet each patient's personal weight loss goals. If weight loss has been on your mind, or you have been prescribed/denied by your insurance any of the GLP-1 medications and are determined to reach your weight loss goals, I am here to guide you through your weight loss journey. 

I founded FUZE Medical Group in January 2024 and am happy to continue to accept new clients every day. My mission is to be able to offer a wide variety of services while ensuring the best prices, and remaining available for my clients as much as possible.
