About Me
Rachel Pritchard MSN, FNP-BC
Board Certified Nurse Practitioner.
As a family nurse practitioner I have had the opportunity to form very meaningful relationships with so many people. Within these relationships the goal has always been finding an individual's pathway to feeling better and achieving their personal health care goals. Over the past 10 years I have seen a shift in what my patients are looking for from their health care providers and the health care industry. As a society we understand our bodies interconnectedness, and want a deeper look into our hormones, gut health, and cellular functions. It was difficult to answer many of these questions when bound by insurance and larger institutional regulations/guidelines…to dig deeper and truly help patients achieve wellness, CODA is my answer!
My journey in health care began like many others; I started as a nursing assistant at a large hospital in Michigan, and worked my way up the nursing ladder. I am proud to say that I have worked every role a nurse can have; this taught me the value of each person's role, and allowed me to interact with patients on a very personal level.
From 2008-2014 I worked as an RN, caring for cancer patients on an in-patient oncology unit, and it was there that I started to truly understand the value of the interpersonal relationship between myself and the patients; and my passion for helping people grew deeper. I attended the University of Michigan, obtained my MSN, and then moved to NC to start my career as a nurse practitioner.
Together we will develop personalized wellness solutions that make healthy aging a priority. CODA is a place for you to feel taken care of, to be listened to, heard, and seen.
