Evie Breedlove-Mangapora, of Inner Essence Health, a board-certified nurse practitioner by the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners, has joined Wellbridges, Inc., in Bonita Springs. With considerable experience in both acute and primary care settings, she is devoted to educating, supporting and coaching individuals, families and communities in achieving optional health and wellness.

A graduate of the University of Michigan, Breedlove-Mangapora is fellowship trained by the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine and Metabolic Medical Institute and practices functional and anti-aging medicine, a form of preventive medicine. Her sensible approach is to resolve the underlying health conditions and not simply mask the symptoms. She does this by educating patients about safe, gentle and natural therapeutic and lifestyle changes to facilitate the body’s innate ability to heal.
