Rewa "Ree" Banks, MSN,CNP Family
Nurse Practitioner
Hello, I am Rewa Banks better known as Ree. I have been a family nurse practitioner for 5 years and a RN for 29 years. I have been working with mental health/ substance use for more than 7 years. Substance use disorder has been in and around me most of my life. I enjoy providing a ladder to those suffering from mental health issues as a way out and up to finding “wholeness”. I am excited, nervous, and thrilled to be a part of this journey with all of you as we lend the world our gifts to help others. I am engaged and have two adult children and one fur baby. I am working on my DNP with a concentration in public health at Xavier University. I look forward to meeting you!
