Jen Galloway, FNP-C, has devoted her career to exploring the power of a person’s facial expression, particularly the significance of a smile. Recently, she expanded her practice by welcoming Shawn Snyder, DNP, FNP-NPC, to her team, which already included nurse injector Kara Turner, BSN, RN. Together, they share a mission to enhance the health and happiness of patients in Casper.
Snyder, who completed his doctorate in nursing at the University of Wyoming in 2015, transitioned to aesthetics after five years in primary and urgent care. He specializes in hormone optimization, weight loss, and aesthetic treatments, focusing on instilling confidence in his patients. “I want people to feel good inside and out,” Snyder said.
Turner brings over 24 years of nursing experience, having worked in family practice and dermatology. Her partnership with Galloway began when they met during Galloway’s part-time aesthetic work, leading to a mentorship that ultimately resulted in Turner joining Galloway’s practice as aesthetics grew in her job responsibilities.
From the outset, Galloway was determined to create a welcoming and knowledgeable team. She believes aesthetic treatments are more than just cosmetic; they are rooted in science and artistry, essential for boosting confidence. The practice offers various services, such as Botox, Jeuveau, and dermal fillers, which target lines and volume loss to create natural and subtle results. “We want patients to leave feeling refreshed and confident in their own skin,” Galloway stated.
Despite a common misconception that aesthetic treatments are driven by vanity, Galloway emphasizes that many seek these services simply to feel rejuvenated. The team understands the desire for patients to achieve a more youthful appearance without extreme changes, following a philosophy that values safety and individualized care. Galloway’s approach combines thorough training and ongoing education for her team, ensuring they are equipped to handle treatments responsibly.
“Less is more,” Galloway said, highlighting her commitment to holistic health. She strives for her patients to feel better mentally and physically, recognizing that confidence can positively affect various aspects of their lives, from personal relationships to professional settings.
With Galloway as the medical director, patients can trust that safety is a priority during procedures. She remains on site at all times, utilizing her experience to create a safe environment. “It’s essential for our patients to know they’re in good hands,” she added.
The team also collaborates with other providers, viewing the local aesthetics and wellness community not as competition but as partners in fostering well-being among Casper residents. The shared goal among the team is to help patients leave their practice feeling validated, heard, and more confident than before.
Through their dedication and expertise, Galloway, Snyder, and Turner are committed to empowering their patients, aiming to provide exceptional care while helping them rediscover their smiles. With a focus on safety, education, and individualized attention, they strive to make a lasting impact within their community.
