Michele Accardo, FNP-C
Covington | Metairie
“I believe that wellness and health encompass our entirety as human beings. We have the tools and the knowledge now to not only live longer but live well longer. I am so excited about helping my patients reach their highest potential for health starting at a young age. I believe in evidence-based medicine and everything we do here at Timeless is based on good science and as a provider, this assures that I am providing the best overall care for our patients. I love the collaboration we have with our team as well as other providers in the community and this practice is not only a service to the community but an asset, I am proud to be associated with.”
Michele has joined Timeless RX after being a loyal patient for many years. After graduating from the University of Southern Mississippi with her Baccalaureate Degree in Nursing, she spent the next several years working in Cardiac Intensive Care eventually becoming a CCRN-certified cardiac critical care educator, winning several awards for excellence in teaching across two states. She then took this knowledge to work in the pharmaceutical industry promoting and educating physicians in cardiovascular medications and therapies. As a natural career progression, Michele decided to share her knowledge and teaching skills with patients by obtaining her master’s degree in Nursing from the University of South Alabama and becoming a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner. After 11 years in practice caring for inpatient cardiology, cardiothoracic, and vascular surgery patients, she is excited to expand her career now to work with patients to prevent disease and improve quality of life. Michele is very excited to not only share her personal patient journey with Timeless Rx but to expand the practice with Reba as a mentor. She is devoted to helping patients live longer, feel better, improve quality of life, and prevent diseases that had been the prior focus of her practice. Her unique personal experience with weight management, bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, and peptide therapy have opened so many opportunities in the emerging anti-aging and integrative medicine fields.
Michele is originally from Magee, MS where her parents still live in the home in which she was raised. She has been a resident of Mandeville since 1999. Michele enjoys spending time with her husband, watching him perform as a lead guitarist in local bands. Her daughter is a proud LSU alumnus who works in the department of admissions for the University and is the busy mom of two wonderful boys.
