About Suzanne

I have a lot of love in my heart and a skill set to go with it. I have been helping people in the Health & Wellness industry most of my life and enjoy it. Recently fulfilled a 30 year dream (that started when I was a Medical Assistant), by graduating from Nursing School and passed the State Nursing Boards. I am now a LVN with 3+ years of experience, working in Urgent Care. I do have 5 years of experience working for a Doctor/Surgeon with a busy private office, with mostly Geriatric patients. I am also Board Certified in Massage Therapy with 5 years employment at a prominent Spa destination. Along with this, I do have certification in, Phlebotomy, CNA, and MA. Also certified in Therapeutic Touch for those at the end of life. I am a Hospice volunteer for Vitas for approximately 2+ years.
