Essentia Health-Osgood Clinic welcomes elder care specialist Erin Wilmes Reiniger

The Essentia Health-Osgood Clinic is excited to welcome Erin Wilmes Reiniger, an advanced practice registered nurse and certified nurse practitioner specializing in elder care.

"I was looking for a position that would be both challenging and rewarding and have heard so many wonderful things about Essentia from friends," explained Reiniger. "I have worked at other large health care companies and I'm excited to join a health system that is large enough to provide specialty care and small enough to treat people as people."

Reiniger received her medical education from Maryville University in St. Louis, Missouri. She is certified by the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners.

"When I decided to return to school for my APRN, I wanted to focus on primary care," Reiniger said. "I saw many people using their specialty providers as their primary. I wanted to be able to be a constant in my patients' lives and care for and help them navigate the health care system to meet their needs.

"This is your life, your health and your choice. I am here to help guide you and provide support and information to make decisions together.",
