Amanda Carter, NP, FAAMFM, ABAAHP
Description
Amanda was raised in Starkville, Mississippi, moved to Ridgeland in 2009 to pursue her goal of becoming a nurse, and in 2012, she graduated from Holmes Community College with an Associate Degree of Nursing. Amanda began her medical career as a Registered Nurse in gynecology/oncology and perioperative services at St. Dominic Hospital and later at the University of Mississippi Medical Center.
Throughout her 10 years in acute care, Amanda developed an interest in Primary Care and Functional Medicine. Seeing the reactive nature of medicine, rather than proactive prevention of illness, lead her to continue her education at Walden University. In 2021 Amanda earned her Master’s Degree of Science in Nursing and became a Certified Family Nurse Practitioner through the American Association of Nurse Practitioners. In 2023 Amanda completed her Functional Medicine Fellowship through the American Academy of Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine.
Amanda joined the Enhanced Wellness Living team to serve patients with a holistic care approach. She enjoys educating patients on using positive lifestyle changes and nutrition to prevent and treat chronic illnesses. Her goal is to encourage community health and to help eliminate health disparities common in our current culture. Amanda thrives while providing individually focused care and making each patient feel like they are a member of her family.
Amanda is passionately involved in our community and regularly volunteers her time to support local causes. She is a member of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP) and the Mississippi Association of Nurse Practitioners (MANP). In her free time, Amanda enjoys bicycling, working out at the gym, Enneagrams, and reading. Chat with Amanda!
