Rachael was born and raised in Panama City Beach, and is a third generation business owner on The World’s Most Beautiful Beaches. She and her husband, Steve, are a blended family with four children. Growing up in her family’s motel business on the beach, she feels it is important to keep the family feel in her practice.

Being an avid SCUBA diver, patients will find Rachael’s hobby of underwater photography all throughout her office, giving off a beachy vibe. She enjoys sharing the undersea life with everyone.

Rachael is a board-certified family nurse practitioner. She started her healthcare career over 20 years ago as an EMT, then pursued her interest in nursing. She graduated with her Master’s in Nursing from Chamberlain University, College of Nursing. Throughout her career, Rachael has worked primarily in acute care and family practice settings, giving her a diverse background.
