From the practitioner: About My Practice

Stefanie began her career in healthcare at Radford University, where she studied Biology and Nursing. She went on to work as a critical care nurse in neonatal and neuroscience specialty ICUs. During her eight years in critical care, she developed a passion for preventive care. She graduated from Drexel University in 2020 with a Masters in Nursing, and simultaneously completed training with The Institute for Functional Medicine.

Stefanie joined Sterling Family Practice part-time in 2021. While she cares for patients of all ages and stages, she especially enjoys caring for infants and children, and developing relationships with families.
