About Laura
Laura is a board-certified adult gerontology primary care nurse practitioner.
Laura grew up on her family farm about 30 minutes outside of Grand Rapids, Michigan. Her passion for healthcare and geriatric medicine began when she worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant at the Grand Rapids Home for Veterans, leading her to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Davenport University and a Master of Science in Nursing from Spring Arbor University.
Outside of work, Laura enjoys hunting—she successfully bagged two elk in the last two years—hiking, fishing and spending time outdoors with her husband, Austin, and their 3-year-old son, Cason. Their faith and family connections remain central in their lives, and they plan to get horses soon—especially since Cason, who already loves riding, dreams of becoming a “wopin’ cowboy.”
