Turn Your Provider After Visit Summary (AVS) into a Real Health Plan
Let’s bridge the gap between your doctors recommendations and real-life execution that get results.
Have you ever left a doctor's appointment feeling like you have a plan, but no idea how to actually implement it? Where to start?
Navigating the next steps after a medical consultation can often feel overwhelming. You have the recommendations, but figuring out how to translate them into your daily life is a completely different challenge. You are not alone. So many of us have the right information but lack the resources and strategy to apply it to their everyday lives. Working with me allows you high level access to you own, personal registered nurse help you along the way.
When we work together, we use clinically evidence-based education to map out your next steps. No fads, no guesswork—just a clear, focused strategy to help you truly own your wellness success.

What Does a Functional Wellness Nurse Specialist Do?
I am a licensed registered nurse (RN) and functional wellness specialist nurse dedicated to root-cause medicine, disease prevention, and overall wellness, rather than merely addressing individual symptoms.
I support you between doctor appointments by empowering you to be proactive in your own health through education, planning and implement lifestyle interventions that help you achieve your health goals.
By integrating traditional nursing practices with holistic approaches, I collaborate with both you and your healthcare provider to explore genetics, lifestyle, diet, and environmental influences, aiming to help you as a patient, attain lasting optimal health for meaningful longevity.
As well as being a licensed RN in over 40 states**, I'm certified as a life coach via the International Coaches Federation (ICF) - the gold standard for lifestyle coaching. I blend functional medicine with lifestyle coaching to help you to not only implement the medical plan, but adjust your lifestyle to the new health routine you are embarking on.

Hello
My name is Karen Bennett
I'm an registered nurse, certified life and professional coach and founder of Sandpiper Functional Wellness.
As a former nursing leader consulting to and working with physicians and leaders for major clinic groups, I know there is a huge gap in patient support once a patient leaves the providers office.
I hope to bridge that gap by building a nurse-led patient support service focused on empowering patients to be in control of their own health and wellness after they leave their appointment.
