My Approach to Care

I am very thorough in my assessments with patients. I consider several key areas related to a patient’s psychological, biological and social functioning to diagnose the problem and come up with the best treatment plan.

Profile

While attending medical school and residency in Chicago, Nadine was exposed to many different levels of care at the medical center she worked at. Aside from learning surgical aspects of anatomy, her biggest interest came to be caring for the most critically ill patients. Nadine’s biggest influences were the pulmonary critical care attendings at Loyola University, especially Drs. Fahley and Tobin.

Nadine loves coming to work because of the relationships she’s formed with patients and colleagues. She is continually learning the science behind how diseases affect various parts of the human body in her role at Bronson. Nadine’s interest in the diagnosis and treatment of both non-cancerous and infectious nodules initiated her to form the Bronson Lung Nodule Clinic in Battle Creek to allow direct access for patients.

Outside of work, Nadine spends most of her time with her three daughters, whether it be at soccer games, art exhibitions or swim meets. She also enjoys digging in the dirt planting perennials and landscaping.
