During nursing school, I was drawn to labor and delivery - the energy in the room during a birth was palpable - and I knew deep down it was the right place for me. I completed doula training to be a volunteer doula while I finished nursing school and as a new nurse, was able to get a job as a labor and delivery nurse. While I loved being a bedside nurse, I felt a pull to find an opportunity to know the rest of my patients' stories. \n Midwifery allowed me to provide continuity of care for families in addition to being invited to witness the excitement of birth. Midwifery education is rooted in being "with women." We are trained to listen, educate and advocate for what our patients feel is their best course of action. I aim to provide holistic care rooted in informed consent and shared decision making. Being able to support patients from their well woman visits, through their prenatal care course and back again has been the greatest privilege! \n I have called Charlotte home since 2015. Before making the jump to hospital-based care, I was involved with the organization and launch of several birthing centers. In my free time I stay actively involved in midwifery advocacy on a state level. When I am not working, you can find me chasing my three wild kids and our growing list of pets!

When you come in, you spend up to an hour with the team discussing your medical history, current symptoms, and any concerns, and they examine your general health as well as the area of concern thats prompted your visit. If you need any tests, the team discusses them with you, and when the results are returned, you attend a second appointment to go through the treatment plan prepared for you.This comprehensive approach to assessing your health is a critical element of the philosophy of The Well for Health, where staff recognizes the importance of getting to the root cause of any health condition to facilitate the most effective course of treatment.
