Meet Desirae 👋

Desirae is currently in the final two sessions of her BSN RN program and is an aspiring Pediatric Nurse Practitioner. She also holds a Master’s degree in Public Health, with a focus on evidence-based practices and epidemiology.

Her long-term goal is to bridge public health and clinical medicine—because many health challenges begin with social factors and are best addressed through a public health lens.

Desirae began her healthcare journey in 2018 as a medical assistant in a pediatric practice, where she discovered her passion for caring for children and their families.
She is an energetic, friendly, and dedicated team member—and a proud mom to an 18-month-old baby boy. When she’s not working or studying, Desirae loves to travel and explore new foods.

If you have a history of elevated blood pressure, it’s always helpful to record your at-home readings for your doctor. 📋🩺 Properly measuring your blood pressure at home is key to accurate readings. Follow these steps:

✔️ Sit in a quiet place with your feet flat on the floor and back supported.
✔️ Rest your arm on a table at heart level, palm facing up.
✔️ Place the cuff on your bare upper arm (not over clothing). It should be snug but not too tight.
✔️ Stay still and quiet while the cuff inflates—no talking!
✔️ Take two readings, one minute apart, and record the average.

❄️ Slip & Fall Prevention This Winter ❄️

Icy sidewalks, snowy parking lots, and wet entryways can quickly turn into a dangerous fall. As temperatures drop, slips and falls become one of the most common winter injuries—especially for older adults.

Stay safe this winter by:
👟 Wearing shoes or boots with good traction
🧂 Watching for ice on steps, sidewalks, and parking lots
🚶 Taking short, slow steps and keeping your hands free
💡 Using handrails and keeping walkways well lit
🧤 Avoiding rushing—extra layers can affect balance

If you do take a fall or experience pain, swelling, dizziness, or difficulty moving, don’t brush it off. Getting checked early can help prevent more serious injuries.

📞 We’re here to help keep you safe all winter long.

We’re Helping Our Community Navigate Insurance Hurdles
At Emcura, we’ve seen the stress that high deductibles and insurance changes can cause for local families. As a family-owned, physician-run clinic, our mission is to provide expert care—not just "express" care.

If you are facing insurance challenges or simply need transparent pricing, we’re here for you. From now through March 31, 2026, we are offering a special flat-rate package to ensure you get the answers you need without the ER price tag.

The $100 All-In Special Includes:

✅ Comprehensive Provider Visit: A full evaluation by our professional team.

✅ Triple-Threat Testing: Onsite tests for Covid-19, Flu A and B, and Strep.

✅ The Emcura Difference: We manage complex cases onsite. If your illness has turned into a sinus infection or pneumonia, we have Digital X-ray and IM Rocephin (antibiotics) ready to go. Hospital-owned clinics might send you to the ER; we treat you right here.

Help us support our neighbors! If you know a friend or family member who needs reliable, affordable care, please share this post with them.

Visit us in Grosse Pointe Woods / Royal Oak today—No appointment necessary!
