I am Laura M; I received my LPN in 1974. I started working at OB-GYN Care Associates on April 27, 2007. I am a native of Bloomington/Normal, and I recently married my husband, Mike, who is a Farmer/Road Commissioner. I have 2 wonderful children, Chris and Nick, 3 stepdaughters and 7 amazing grandchildren, with 2 more on the way. My favorite singer is Carrie Underwood; I enjoy walking, reading and spending time with my wonderful family. I love my job, my coworkers and the patients! Please do not hesitate to call me with your questions and concerns.

I have worked for 27 plus years in various fields, and my education has been on the job. I am married with 3 children; we have 2 cats, 1 dog and 1 horse. I enjoy spending my free time camping with family, hiking, and reading; as well as going to horse and dog shows. I love all of the people I work with; I enjoy getting to meet all of the babies after having known their families during the 9 months that they were coming to the office. I really enjoy interacting with the patients that come in for their check-ups and visits.

I have worked at OB-GYN Care since 2002 and have been an RN, BSN since 2004. I attended Mennonite College of Nursing at Illinois State University. I enjoy developing relationships with our patients and their loved ones as well as giving them outstanding care. I also enjoy the updated, exciting atmosphere in the office and spending the day with great co-workers! I am happily married with two wonderful children. I absolutely love being a mom. My family is my priority and I spend most of my time outside of work with my family and enjoying the outdoors. We take family bike rides and "play" outdoors. I also love running in my spare time.

I am married and have 3 married daughters along with 7 grandchildren. My hometown is Chenoa, IL and I attended Bloomington School of Practical Nursing in 1971. We owned and operated Green Thumb Gardens Florist and Garden Center in Chenoa from 1982-2001. I loved the floral business and I could be home while raising daughters- when the last one graduated from college, my husband and I were able to choose and go on to new/continued careers. I have been with OB-GYN Care since 2001. My hobbies include gardening, reading, beading jewelry, Zumba and traveling, especially to the Caribbean. I love working in nursing-I especially like to meet women and help them make good healthcare choices. The women are typically the center of each family, and their example to their family is so important for overall health of everyone in that family. Take care of yourselves, girls and gals...you're all very special women in someone's lives.

I graduated from Kankakee College and have 20 plus years in OB-GYN Care. I have been happily married for 22 years and have 3 wonderful children, Cody, Troy and Karly. We have a cat named Max and my hobbies include reading, sewing and baking.

I also love to read. I play the organ in church on Sundays and love to play my flute. But, mostly I love being with my family. I am very excited about being here and look forward to meeting all of you.

I'm Melle. I recently turned 30 and made the switch from veterinary medicine to human medicine and I haven't regretted it for a second. I am the proud parent of a very bright and beautiful 10 year old daughter, Caitlin. Our household has a multitude of furry children as well - 3 cats (Flower, Fauna and Chickia), a dog (Lotus) and a rat (Petunia). I play roller derby for the Mclean County MissFits in my rare downtime and love the rush and the reward of playing such an aggressive sport while raising thousands of dollars for charity. I also am an aspiring writer. I'm so glad to be with Ob-Gyn Care as your nurse technician and look forward to meeting you!

I have enjoyed working in the health care industry since 1997. Prior to coming to OB-GYN Care in 2008 I was a Registered Respiratory Therapist. After working at St. Joe's for 11 years I went back to school to complete my Bachelor's Degree. I graduated from Greenville College with a degree in Organizational Leadership. What I like best about this career is the challenge of running an office, the patient interaction, and the flexibility I can have for my family. Theo and I have been married since 1998 and have 2 kids, Luke (6) and Mara (5). They keep us very busy, on our toes and entertained. In my spare time I enjoy going on trips with my family, running and scrapbooking.
