Hi, I’m Tammy! I’m a Northern Illinois native, born and raised in the area I still call home. My husband of twenty years and I live in Sycamore with our four grown children and two beloved dogs, Marshall and Holly.

My passion for caring for people started early. I became a certified nursing assistant in high school, later a medical assistant, and earned my RN in 2015. Along the way I worked in long-term care, hospitals, and clinics, and an early role with a holistic-minded family practice doctor sparked my love of natural therapies and supplements. I still serve at a nonprofit pregnancy clinic alongside my work at Essential Infusions Plus.

I believe God has given our bodies an amazing ability to heal, and that we each have a personal responsibility to care for our minds, bodies, and spirits. That belief shapes how I work: looking for the root causes of health struggles to find a better path to lasting wellness. I find so much joy in walking alongside patients on that journey, and I love the aesthetic side of EIP too. I look forward to helping you look great and feel great.

I am a husband and father, Life Coach, Certified Personal Trainer, Health & Wellness Director of a YMCA in Missouri, and Lead Pastor of Cornerstone Foursquare Church. My family spent over 13 years in the Philippines as missionaries, and all of my three children were born there. I love helping people achieve their goals. One of my missions in life is to help others overcome barriers and reach their full potential. At 19 years old I was 350 pounds, I couldn’t run or even walk right. This caused both of my feet to fracture, as well as some lingering problems in my knees and joints. However, I was determined to live life to the fullest so I lost 130 lbs, I work out at least 5 times a week, and I love playing basketball. My journey wasn’t easy, and it took several years to get where I am today, but it is worth it. Each and every step, worth it. I am all about balance in life, and I will try to bring a holistic approach to everything we say and do. I look forward to working with you. Mike Erickson

I am excited to join this amazing team at Essential Infusion’s Plus. I have been a Registered nurse for 23 years. I became a nurse because of the amazing care I received from a nurse. I have always been drawn to new life. I have worked in Labor and Delivery for my entire career and am currently employed part time at Northwestern Medicines Delnor hospital.

Five years ago I started to become interested in what I was putting into my body, yes my diet. Food. I became familiar with Whole30, which focuses on removing inflammatory foods from the diet. I saw drastic changed in monthly migraines. In the past year I removed gluten from my diet and have seen great benefits in my health, such as decreased joint pain, less GI symptoms and an increase in energy. We underestimate what we put into our bodies and the short and long term effect it has on our health. You cannot put water in your gas tank and expect your car to run well.

When Angie approached me about joining the team, I was so excited to learn more about how I could assist my immune system in functioning the way God intended.

1 Corinthians 6: 19-20 Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.

These last few years have really been eye opening as a health care worker. Never before have I needed to be healthy; starting with diet and exercise because these are things we can control.

So here I am, ready to help you on your health journey, maybe even help you, “deliver” a new you in 2023!

God Bless,

Tracey Horner Etheridge RN

My name is Beth Luchesi-Komprood. I am a registered nurse with over 22 years of diverse nursing experience in main stream medicine. I grew up just outside of Chicago, in Elmwood Park, Illinois. After graduating nursing school, in 2000, I started out my nursing career, practicing in long-term acute care and step down at RML Specialty Hospital in Hinsdale, Illinois. In 2004, I decided to take my RN experience, and travel to various states around the US, as a contract travel nurse. For the next six years I enjoyed taking on new assignments, wherever there was a need in Step down or ICU. My most memorable and favorite locations I practiced are San Diego, Phoenix, and Clearwater. There I created memories that made traveling the highlight of my career. During my travels in 2008, I decided to follow my long-time passion for skin care and wellness. I went back to school and graduated from Universal Spa Training Academy, in Downers Grove, Il, and became a Licensed Aesthetician. I gained most of my aesthetic experience over the next 3 years, when I was asked by one of her Cardio thoracic Surgeons to assist him in opening up, and running a popular med spa in Chicago. There, I became certified and proficient in Botox, fillers, and laser therapy, while building a substantial clientele. In 2011, while still in love with the world of aesthetics, I accepted an irresistible offer at the University of Illinois, in Chicago, working in the Outpatient Ambulatory Care Center where worked for the next 10+ years. After a long run in a teaching hospital, practicing main stream, my desire for natural medicine was increasing, and I just knew I had more to offer. In 2018, my thoughts and beliefs hit home. I witnessed how integrative medicine and prayer helped heal my very own father from inoperable stage IV metastatic kidney cancer. Currently, he is on zero medication, and still doing fantastic, after given only one year to live (4 years ago!). This, and working through the Covid pandemic, brought to light the endless possibilities of how alternative medicine, or a “natural approach”, could in fact, optimize patient outcomes. The camaraderie and long-term relationships were hard to give up, however, my faith in Jesus, prayer, and love for Integrative Medicine, have led me here to where I am today. My husband Jeff and I reside in Rockford, where we have adopted our nieces Brooke and Olivia. We also have an Australian Labradoodle, Callie-Jean, who has become our family mascot. I am excited to be able to practice aesthetics again and walk along side you through your wellness journey.

I trust in God‘s word, and below, are two of my favorite verses , that I lean on!

With God ALL things are possible. Matthew 19:26

I can do ALL things through Christ, who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13

Born and raised in Rochelle, I fell in love with nursing when I spent four years in Mexico as a missionary. My heart broke as I saw how simple interventions could change people’s lives. So, I felt God calling me to become a nurse in 2003. I spent 10 years in ER and ICU before becoming a family nurse practitioner in 2013. I have since worked mainly as a hospitalist and in palliative care. Recent changes in healthcare have brought me to be passionate about a more holistic approach to wellness. By supporting our environment and what we put in our bodies, we can greatly impact our health for the better. I have struggled personally with obesity my whole life and am on a journey to wellness myself as I learn to change my lifestyle. I am passionate about keeping people healthy and healing their bodies from the inside and through modalities that are proven through multiple studies and experiences.

I currently live locally. I am married with five kids who keep me active and running from activity to activity. I teach nursing part time as I feel it is imperative to impact the new generation of healthcare workers. I am certified in critical care nursing, hospice and palliative care as an advanced practice nurse, and in online teaching. I also carry a certificate in functional medicine and legal nurse consulting. Not only am I a nurse practitioner, but I continued on in my education to get a doctorate degree in order to be as prepared as possible to serve my patients.

My goal is to redefine health by providing opportunities that aren’t readily available to the community that I have grown up in and have raised my children in. I am excited to bring these treatment options to those of you on the same journey as I. I look forward to meeting you and walking with you on your journey to health and wellness!

Hi, I’m Kim! For the past 13 years I’ve worked as a critical care nurse on the night shift in the west suburbs, where I had the privilege of meeting and working alongside Angie, the founder of Essential Infusions Plus.

My journey into functional medicine began as a personal mission: to take control of my own health through personalized, evidence-based care. I believe in the power of nutrition, lifestyle changes, and education to support long-term wellbeing and help people feel their best.

At Essential Infusions Plus, I love building strong relationships with my patients and guiding them with compassion, understanding, and support. Alongside an incredible team, I take a holistic, whole-body approach, creating customized wellness plans that promote vitality and resilience.

When I’m not working, you’ll find me chauffeuring my three kids to their many activities and cheering them on. Our busy schedules keep me on my toes, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. I look forward to helping you reach your health goals and supporting you on your wellness journey.

Hi, I’m Susan! I’ve dedicated my 32-year career to advancing patient care across urgent care, gastroenterology, rheumatology, OB/GYN, primary care, emergency medicine, and aesthetics. I currently work as an emergency department NP while joining Essential Infusions Plus, a regenerative medicine practice focused on innovative, personalized care.

Beyond clinical practice, I’ve spent the past 17 years in medical education, teaching and mentoring NP students, including through Chamberlain University. Originally from Sycamore, Illinois, my journey in healthcare has evolved over time, and I’ve come to understand the limitations of conventional medicine. That’s what drew me to functional medicine: an evidence-based approach focused on identifying and addressing the root causes of health struggles rather than simply managing symptoms.

I’m proud to combine my broad clinical background with my passion for helping patients live their best lives through longevity and whole-body wellness. Blending clinical expertise with a root-cause approach, I’m honored to offer personalized solutions that support healing, vitality, and long-term wellness. I look forward to empowering you to take an active role in your health.

Hi, I’m Brooke! I’ve been happily married to my husband, Rich, for 24 years, and I’m a proud mom to two amazing adult children.

For over 20 years I worked as a radiographer in a traditional hospital setting, where I developed a deep passion for patient care and building meaningful relationships. While I loved serving others in that role, I felt called to explore a new path, one that aligned more closely with my own beliefs about health and wellness. That journey led me to Essential Infusions Plus.

I’ve always embraced a natural, holistic approach to health for myself and my family, and I believe in functional and alternative medicine as a foundation for overall wellness. Joining the EIP team lets me combine my medical background with my passion for personalized, patient-centered care. I’m so excited to support you on your wellness journey. Come say hi. You never know what you might learn, and I’ll be here to take great care of you!
