I graduated nursing school from SBU-St. John's college of nursing in Springfield, MO and worked as an emergency room nurse for Mercy for a little over 7 years. I graduated as a Nurse Practitioner from Missouri State University and quickly moved back to my hometown of Branson, MO to be close to family and treat patients from the community I grew up in.
My goal as your health care provider is to treat you like family. I want to listen to your concerns and help you make a decision that is right for your health. I often will say "If you were my family member this is what I would do." I always hope my patients leave my office feeling like they've been listened to well, educated, and never rushed.
“We are grateful for the professional and compassionate care provided by Carolyn and the Tri-Lakes Family Care team; always a listening ear, helpful information, and encouraging steps forward! Thank you, TLFC! ”
