Carissa Arens, APRN, CNP
After being an NP for over 7 years, I left corporate, "big business" health care because of its distasteful focus on profits. I started my own clinic and website, hoping to provide more compassionate and competent care by giving my full attention to every single patient I see while creatively working to meet most patient needs with telehealth and distance care. I started a website at IllumiMed.health to help deliver accurate and understandable health education to people and also to support my work as a patient advocate.
