When asked what she loves about being a Nurse Practitioner, she said, “there are multiple reasons why I still love what I do after 20 years. First and foremost, I believe everyone is here to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Taking care of others is what I absolutely know God called me to do! I truly feel that we can help mend broken bones and broken hearts. I love building relationships with my patients. One of the greatest joys as a NP is watching a patient conquer what he or she thought was an unattainable goal! I love celebrating my patient’s successes but I also love that I am able to hug them through their failures. Fun fact about Rhonda…she started taking piano lessons again two years ago as a way to relax!
