Rebecca Renfroe, AGACNP-C

Rebecca Renfroe is a Southern Illinois native and veteran U.S. Army nurse with over 25 years experience in healthcare and over 20 years experience as an endovascular nurse and surgical assistant. She brings a wealth of experience to Advanced Surgical Technology. Rebecca specializes in Vein & Vascular Surgery and is a Certified Registered Nurse First Assistant. She is also a Certified Perioperative Nurse, which allows her to oversee the entire surgical process from pre, intra, to postoperative care. Rebecca is passionate about providing those within the community a higher standard of surgical care.

“I enjoy being able to help my patients throughout the entire surgical process, from their initial consultation to their release from care. For many patients, vascular care can be ongoing and long term, which allows me to build relationships with my patients. For some patients, we are able to relieve pain through symptom management. I find it very rewarding to help patients improve their quality of life in this regard.”
