Meet the Nursing Team
Elizabeth Sherwood
RN MS ANP-C
As an experienced and compassionate nurse with over 35 years of experience, I specialize in Integrative Oncology care. I am well-versed in conventional, alternative and integrative therapies and enjoy a special focus on the benefits of nutritional choices, supplements and repurposed medications.. I also have advanced knowledge in the use of medicinal cannabis for both symptom management, as well as integrative care protocols for those dealing with cancer. My passion is helping those dealing with cancer to find the information and support they need, to inform their decisions and advocate for themselves, as they move toward greater well-being and ideally optimized health outcomes.
Joan Rogers Jackson
RN MS, CSN
The diagnosis of cancer is a pivotal time for patients and their families to assess their wellbeing and make informed treatment decisions. I am an advanced practice RN with over 42 years of clinical nursing experience. Throughout my nursing career, I have been honored to work with children, adolescents, adults and multigenerational families as they navigated the intense struggles and wonderful successes of life threatening health challenges, especially related to the diagnoses of cancer. I specialize in a patient centered, integrative, evidence informed approach to cancer care, including information about nutrition, supplements, off-label medications, lifestyle, conventional and alternative treatment options. I am passionate about meeting with patients and their loved ones to provide a knowledgeable, supportive, compassionate, and hopeful perspective.

Kristin Wohlschlagel
RN MS, CSN
I’m a Registered Nurse with more than 16 years of nursing experience, specializing in Oncology, Hospice, and Palliative Care. I focus on optimizing conventional protocols and integrative care options, with a special emphasis on the use of supplements and medicinal cannabis, both for symptom control and the active treatment of chronic diseases.
I specialize in providing consultations for clients with advanced needs, complicated protocols, or treatment-resistant diseases.
I can help you understand the confusing medical and scientific terminology and help you develop a researched care plan to review with your doctor.
Alison Childs
RN
As a Registered Nurse for 27 years, I have supported patients and their families in a variety of settings, from the hospital to home care and everywhere in between, with a compassionate, spiritual, holistic, and patient-centered approach throughout the trajectory of their cancer treatment. Certified in both Palliative and Hospice levels of care, I have assisted patients and their families in navigating standard-of-care treatments, as well as alternative choices from diagnosis to no evidence of disease.
My experience as an Oncology Nurse navigator has allowed me to assist patients through many different treatment options, including the use of supplements, repurposed medications, nutritional options, and lifestyle changes to optimize the possibility of a positive outcome.
In addition to my nursing qualifications, I am a Reiki Master- Teacher, which provides a touch of spirituality to all my patient interactions
