A Note From Laura
"My calling into medicine has always been rooted in service. I believe God equips each of us with gifts and experiences that prepare us for the work He places before us. For over a decade in hospital medicine, I witnessed the weight—physical, emotional, and spiritual—that patients carry.
​
My love for health, fitness, and medicine grew into a desire to walk alongside individuals who are ready for renewal—inside and out. Renew Weight & Wellness Co. was created as a space to help patients steward their health, strengthen their confidence, and experience sustainable transformation.
​
I pray that each person who comes here feels seen, supported, and empowered. I am honored to combine my medical training with the purpose God placed in my heart—to make a meaningful difference in the lives I’m entrusted to care for."
