Amber and Erin's paths have crossed several times throughout the past decade and a half. Amber was working in the ICU at St Joseph's hospital when she first took a nursing student (Erin) under her wing for her senior partnership! Amber taught Erin the critical care skills of nursing, while modeling a caring and compassionate demeanor that stuck with Erin as she began her professional career. Flash forward 5 years, and their paths crossed again as students working towards their FNP degrees at Husson University. Another 5 years, and here we are! Amber had the vision and Erin was eager to join! 207 Wellness was created with the goal of providing a holistic approach to better health and wellbeing! We are honored by each patient that allows us to be part of their journey!
We can't wait to help you reach your health goals!
Our Approach
We are so excited to start this journey with you and help you to reach your health goals!
At 207 Wellness, we feel as though success is best gained through a holistic approach.
Studies have shown that weight loss of 5-7% of body weight can reduce risk factors for cardiovascular disease such as high blood pressure and diabetes! Weight loss is like an onion, there are many layers to break through to not only lose the weight but also to maintain the loss - which is our ultimate goal! At our initial visit, we will work with you to define your goals and expose the barriers we will have to overcome! Together, we will generate a plan that includes nutritional and activity recommendations as well as the possibility of medication administration.
Our greatest achievement will be to reset the mindset with an end result of lasting good health
and happiness!
