McKenzie is a board certified Family Nurse Practitioner, specializing primarily in weight loss and obesity medicine. She has trained extensively in bariatrics and practiced in the field for more than 10 years. Rather than prescribe GLP-1s utilizing a standardized protocol, McKenzie creates individualized treatment plans addressing her patient’s specific needs and weight loss goals. Additionally, she was one of the first providers in the area to offer compounded GLP-1s.
