Renee Christensen- Office Manager
Renee` Christensen grew up in upstate New York and has an absolute obsession with Yankee’s baseball. She is known to get a little feisty about her love of New York sports, but we will forgive her.
Renee’s energetic Yankee attitude is seen spilling over into her job as office manager in the form of dedication to the patients and a passion for detail. Renee` is always the first one “at bat” for a patient who needs an advocate speaking to their insurance company.
Renee’ joined Active Care Wellness Center in 2012 with 15 years of medical billing expertise. She loves all aspects of her job, especially getting to know the patient’s on a first name basis. Renee` strives to bring “red carpet” treatment for every patient interaction, whether in person or on the phone.
