"Cora discovered her love for medicine while studying exercise science and psychology at Colorado College. She went on to earn her postgraduate degree in Physician Assistant Studies from Pacific University in 2007. After obtaining board certification, she spent five years treating a range of acute conditions in the Unity Hospital ER. Over the past nine years Cora has shifted focus to preventive health and managing chronic illness.
After years of seeing upwards of fifty patients each day, she realized traditional medicine was no longer focused on patients. The desire to prioritize each patient and a passion for helping people provided the motivation to create Balanced Healthcare – a concierge medical practice devoted to building authentic relationships based on convenience, accessibility and more one-on-one time with patients. This dedication allows Cora to dig deeper into each patient’s questions, concerns, illness and injury and creates an opportunity to develop each patient’s individualized care plan."
