Introducing Phylicia Garland
Health and wellness have always been a passion of mine. Having the chance to be able to help others each day and help guide them to a healthy lifestyle by making the correct choices, fulfills that passion. My name is Phylicia Garland and I've lived in Illinois for the past 8 years. Originally I'm from Terre Haute, IN, a small town that's home of Indiana State University, I.S.U. Go Sycamores! (That's the same college where Larry Bird played college ball. Named collegiate player of the year in his last season in 1979)
In school, I was involved in student politics, volunteered my time for public service, and helped raise money for charitable events. I was involved in sports, such as cheerleading and softball. I graduated from Rolling Meadows High School in 2004.
Currently I'm going to college, to continue my education in healthcare, and am taking classes to get my bachelors in nursing. I'm a big sports fan, and enjoy watching football, basketball, and baseball, yet football will always be my all time favorite. I love the Chicago White Sox, Chicago Bulls, and the Indianapolis Colts. I enjoy on my free time doing anything outdoors, shopping, movies, and spending time with family. I'm a huge Mariah Carey fan, and enjoy watching reality T.V. (Even though it's incredibly mind numbing!)
When in the office I will do my best to make your visit a comfortable and relaxing one. Any questions you have I will make sure I to answer them as efficiently and completely as possible. I'll be here to help you with insurance, billing, appointments, your treatment plan, and supplements/nutrition. It is my goal to help guide you in staying on top of your health as our patient. And making it easy to continue to stay in good health.
