About Me!

Rene is a Family Nurse Practitioner that started in healthcare as a RN.  She has greater than 7 years experience in practice.  She is currently practicing as the main provider at this health spa as well as a provider in a busy Emergency Room.  She is family oriented and lives at home with her husband, 2 children, and their family fur babies. She still lives within the small community she grew up in! She has a Masters degree from D'Youville, a Bachelor's degree from Daemen, and 2 Associates degrees from Jamestown Community College.  

Rene was born and raised on a farm in a small community in the rolling hills of Cattaraugus County.  She started her journey in weight loss and fitness about 2 years ago.  Since then she has lost 70 lbs and counting! She gained a new prospective of the work and the determination that comes with it.  Rene found an attentiveness for the new world of healthcare she found, and wanted to be able to help patients reach their goals without bias or judgement.  Rene currently goes to a gym 4-5 times a week, some of which working with an amazing Personal Trainer that pushes her to be her best self!  

As a human that is also on the same path as many of you, her approach is an understanding of the realistic goals and coaching that are needed to be successful.  It is a passion for her to be able to see patients working towards how they see their best self.  Everything takes time and hard work. With a provider that sees past the stereotype of what a healthy body looks like  it will give you a healthy journey to being your best self!
