Casondra Rankin, MSN, APRN, FNP-C, is a board-certified family nurse practitioner (FNP-C) at Austin Wellness Solutions in Thornton and Westminster, Colorado. She has extensive training and experience in bioidentical hormone replacement therapy.
Casondra grew up in New Mexico, which is where she started her Nursing career. She came to Denver in 2014 working as a Travel RN in the Emergency Department.
She pursued and completed her Master of Science in Nursing at Frontier Nursing University and became board-certified by the American Association of Nurse Practitioners in 2018. Casondra has worked in a variety of clinical environments throughout her career, including the emergency department, pediatric emergency , women’s health, urgent care and family medicine.
Throughout this extensive experience, she became aware of the serious gap between patient education and medical intervention. In other words, patients are often not provided with the crucial education and preventive tools needed to optimize their health in the traditional medical setting. This gap directly contributes to the epidemic of chronic diseases and prescription medication reliance for the management of chronic disease states. Ultimately, this fueled Casondra's passion for integrative medicine and preventive care.
Casondra is a BioTe-certified provider and specializes in BHRT, medically assisted weight loss, women’s health, and thyroid optimization. With her knowledge, experience, and deep compassion, she advocates for her patients to live their best lives while providing a holistic approach to medical intervention.
Casondra also has her own unique experience with Western medicine after her recent struggles with, and ultimate survivor, of cancer. After extensive research, she chose alternative therapies to treat her disease, which fueled an even bigger passion for body optimization to function at its highest potential using nutrition, plant medicine, movement, and the appropriate use of supplements.
