Stella graduated form the University of Missouri-Kansas City with a Master’s degree as a family nurse practitioner in 1998. After working in the area of Adolescent Health for several years, she accepted a position in 2004 with Skaggs Regional Medical Center in Branson, MO. She worked Pediatrics and Urgent Care. In April 2014, she and her husband relocated back to the Kansas City area.
Stella has had a life-long desire to be a registered nurse and help others. Her interests include Pediatric and Adolescent Health as well as nutrition and weight loss. Stella was introduced to chiropractic care as a child and it has been a part of her own health regimen since then. She loves teaching and counseling others about how to take care of their bodies and maintain optimum health.
Outside the office, Stella enjoys kayaking. Her major project currently is renovating an older home which she and her husband purchased when they moved back to the area.
“I believe in a positive approach to health management. I believe it is important to find the root or cause of a problem instead of just covering the symptoms with medications. I believe patients should be responsible for and able to manage their own health given proper and sound assistance. I have been on my own weight loss journey and enjoy helping others who are struggling with this problem reach their goals and desires. It is so thrilling to me to see positive outcomes. However, I know there are discouragements along the journey and it is important to be able to give encouragement and positive re-enforcement.” Stella Bird, APRN
