My Personal Story

I’ve been in a laughter-filled marriage since 2005 and am the proud mom of two incredible children—plus one spirited German Shorthair Pointer who rounds out our family. Whether volunteering at church, supporting schools, or serving with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, I’ve always found purpose in building relationships and promoting whole-person health. I find joy in playing violin and singing at church, hiking, cooking, and being present for the unfolding journey of our children’s lives. Supporting their health has deeply shaped my approach. From helping my son recover from pitching strain to navigating cystic fibrosis care and medication side effects with my daughter, I’ve come to rely on root-cause discernment as my compass.

Degrees, Certifications, Training

Susan Attel is a Board-Certified Family Nurse Practitioner with a deep-rooted commitment to integrative and functional health. My journey began in music therapy at Florida State University, where I studied for three years before feeling a strong pull toward healthcare. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Baylor University in 1999, followed by a Master of Science in Nursing from the University of Texas at Arlington in 2003 and board certification through the ANCC in 2004. 

 
Early in my career, I worked in neurology and epilepsy outreach at Parkland Hospital before transitioning to an integrative family medicine practice, where I spent five formative years. I then returned to Parkland to serve in outpatient women’s health for 12 years, caring for underserved and medically complex patients throughout Dallas County. Sensing there was more to healthcare than the conventional protocols we were trained to follow, I became a certified practitioner by the Institute for Functional Medicine and am now at Carpathia Health, where I collaborate with a team of providers to offer healing modalities that are a lifeline for so many, providing deep listening and space for those who feel chronically overextended, carrying a heavy burden of responsibilities and decisions.
