LEQUAWN JAMES

MSN, APRN, AGNP-C, CHC

My name is Lequawn James. I am a nurse practitioner that specializes in mental health and addiction medicine, orthopedics and sports medicine, anti-aging and hormone replacement. Although these practices are on different realms of the healthcare spectrum, I find both very rewarding in their own way. In both, I have the unique opportunity to give patients a second chance at life through mental, spiritual, physical, and emotional health rebuilding.

On the orthopedic side, I encounter many patients who have spent years in pain without results from various surgeries and use of painkillers. Through naturopathic and homeopathic treatments, I am given the opportunity to help patients relieve pain and increase their activity level and function without the use of countless narcotics and surgery.

My office is not just a place where I specialize in treating pain. I also treat patients’ abnormal hormones and the various symptoms that develop as a result of these abnormalities, through the use of the Biote method (pellet insertion), as well as injectable testosterone. Additionally, I use regenerative medicine to aide in joint, muscle, ligament, and tendon repairs; anti-aging, hair-restoration, as well as Botox and fillers. I am certified by the American Board of Nurse Practitioners, Biote certified to implement pellets for hormone replacement therapy and thyroid treatments and certified through Allergan to use Botox products of all kinds. Before I became a nurse practitioner, I spent nearly 8 years working in the emergency department and intensive care unit as a nurse where I saw and treated everything you can name. I attribute all of my skills of today, to the many years in the trenches as a nurse.

Before becoming a nurse, I played four years of College football where I was an All-Conference, All-American Football player. Now my hobbies include working out, coming up with macro-friendly meals for patients and friends to try, traveling, amusement parks, hiking, playing on a competitive flag football travel team, and cuddling my puppy husky Q.

My name is Kristen and I am a Family Nurse Practitoner. I started my career in nursing in 2017, when I graduated Cum Laude with my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Herzing University. As a RN, I worked on a cardiovascular unit for 2 years until I transitioned into aesthetics in 2020. In 2023, I graduated with my Masters of Science in Nursing in order to expand my passion in aesthetics and wellness. My goal has always been to create positive environment to improve confidence and self esteem.

Outside of my professional life, I am originally from Orlando, FL and moved to Atlanta, GA in 2020. I enjoy spending quality time with my husband, daughter, and cocker spaniel Boba T. I also enjoy vacationing whenever possible, cooking, reading, and just making the most out life!

Lequawn James
MSN, APRN, AGNP-C, CHC

My name is Lequawn James, and I am a Nurse Practitioner, as well as the Founder and CEO of Gentle Giant Care. I am a Master Injector with expertise in Orthopedics and Sports Medicine, Anti-Aging and Hormone Replacement, Peptide Therapy, Aesthetics, Drug Abuse Recovery, Weight Loss and Nutrition, Regenerative Medicine, and both Men’s and Women’s Health and Wellness, including Sexual Wellness. While these practices span various aspects of healthcare, I find each one uniquely rewarding. My diverse areas of specialization enable me to offer patients a holistic approach, empowering them with a second chance at life through the restoration of their mental, spiritual, physical, emotional, and sexual health. I am not a traditional med spa; I am a comprehensive, all-inclusive healthcare provider. My approach is centered on ensuring that clients achieve balance and wellness both internally and externally. While the path to optimal health may vary for each individual, the outcome remains consistent: holistic well-being. My guiding principle is, "Stop just surviving when you can be thriving," and it is my life's mission to empower as many individuals as possible to reach their fullest potential. Prior to becoming a Nurse Practitioner, I spent over eight years working as a nurse in both the Emergency Department and Intensive Care Unit, where I gained extensive experience in managing a wide range of critical conditions. I attribute much of the expertise I bring to my current practice to the invaluable lessons learned during those years on the frontlines of patient care. This foundation has shaped my approach to healthcare and prepared me for the diverse roles I undertake today. My goal is to empower clients to prevent unnecessary visits to the emergency department by addressing preventable health issues through a focus on wellness, nutrition, and proactive care. Before transitioning into nursing, I spent four years playing college football, earning All-Conference and All-American honors along the way. Today, my passion for health and wellness extends beyond my professional life. I enjoy staying active through workouts, creating macro-friendly meals for both patients and friends, and exploring new places through travel. In addition, I love outdoor adventures, from hiking to visiting amusement parks, and I stay competitive by participating in flag football, softball, and kickball leagues. In summary, my diverse background in both healthcare and athletics, combined with my passion for holistic wellness, enables me to provide comprehensive care that addresses the full spectrum of a person’s health. Whether through specialized treatments or personalized lifestyle guidance, I am committed to helping individuals achieve their optimal potential and live healthier, more fulfilling lives. I look forward to continuing to make a positive impact and empowering others to thrive.
