Angie Spagnolo, RN BSN
Nurse Angie has a passion for helping clients live their best life! From a very young age as a new Nurse, she quickly found her niche in the practice of Nursing. She found her greatest pleasure in Nursing was to advocate and help patients dig deeper in to the root causes of their symptoms and chronic conditions. She always encouraged her patients to ask questions, understand the cause, and consider all options for treating and/or resolving their symptoms and chronic conditions. She has been credited with saving a life or two along the way!
Angie possesses expert IV insertion skills, which she gained through her experience as a former telemetry/cardiac care Nurse and Home Health Nurse.
As a former Pharmaceutical Sales Representative, Angie also has a wealth of understanding of traditional medications, including the mechanism of action, side effects, and adverse events. This background has helped her to dive deep in to the field of IV drip hydration and shots as an alternative to traditional medications.
Angie has a great sense of humor and is loved by her clients! She puts everyone at ease with her great personality. Her mission is to not only help her clients live longer but live a longer life full of health!
