Most people never see what it takes to truly advocate for a patient.

Small business ownership is often described as rewarding — and it is — but it is also humbling, demanding, and deeply personal.

This practice was built on the belief that patients deserve to be seen, heard, and advocated for — especially those who too often are not.

We stand alongside our patients to help others understand that obesity is a chronic, treatable disease, not a personal failure. That advocacy doesn’t stop in the exam room. It looks like long days, after-hours calls with insurance companies, and extensive letters written in support of medication coverage — work that is frequently unseen and unreimbursed, but never viewed by us as optional. Because when patients struggle to be taken seriously, having someone willing to fight for them matters.

Independent healthcare means choosing relationships over volume and people over convenience. It means building something rooted in compassion, respect, and evidence-based care for the community we are honored to serve.

If our clinic has impacted you, supported you, or made you feel less alone in your healthcare journey, we would be incredibly grateful if you considered nominating North Dakota Center for Weight Management for Emerging Business of the year or Small Business of the Year.

And no matter what — thank you. Thank you for trusting a small, independent practice. Thank you for supporting local. And thank you for allowing us to do work that means so much to us.

North Dakota Center For Weight Management would personally like to congratulate our long-time friend, colleague, and fellow Nurse Practitioner Dr. Stephanie Hendricks, DNP, FNP-C of Amend Healthcare on being this year's recipient for North Dakota the 2026 State Award for Outstanding Contributions in Healthcare by the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners (AANP).

This award honors individuals who have made significant strides in advancing health care through practice, education, advocacy, research and leadership (PEARL), and have demonstrated efforts to advance the image, profile and visibility of nurse practitioners (NPs).

“Each of these honorees exemplifies the very best of our profession,” said AANP President Dr. Valerie Fuller, PhD, DNP. “Their dedication to advancing patient care, strengthening our communities and elevating the role of nurse practitioners is truly inspiring. AANP is proud to recognize their leadership and the meaningful difference they make every day.”

Over the years, AANP’s state-level awards have evolved to reflect the full scope of NP impact. Today, the AANP State Awards for Outstanding Contributions honor one individual per state whose exemplary clinical care, advocacy and leadership have strengthened the NP profession and improved the health of communities nationwide. These awards celebrate the extraordinary dedication of NPs and advocates who go above and beyond to advance patient-centered care and elevate our profession.

Congratulations, Dr. Hendricks! They could not have chosen a more deserving candidate!
