Melanie Dresden, APRN, FNP-C

"Melanie comes to the Healthy Human with years of experience in healthcare. She comes from a variety of settings including Primary Care, Urgent Care, and the Emergency Room. She worked as a nurse for 9+ years prior to going back to school for her Nurse Practitioner degree. She enjoyed working with patients daily, but desired a Provider-Patient relationship in a setting that would offer continuity of care. In May of 2017, she graduated from Simmons College in Boston with a Nurse Practitioner degree and continues to follow her dreams. She has a desire to educate patients on health and wellness by using nutrition & diet as a means for medical treatment and preventive care. Melanie and Dr. Beckenhauer share the same passion for Integrative/Functional medicine, and work hard at incorporating this into a patient's everyday life. Melanie has taken another leap into Integrative Wellness by completing classes from KionU, which is a Health and Wellness Certification Program with Ben Greenfield. It is a world-class personalized coaching certification in mind, body, and spirit optimization."
