THE FBE TEAM
As providers, we are more interested in the relationship than a quick fix. Our goal is to have you leave feeling confident but not overdone or over-sold.
FBE Team
Erin
Erin created FBE because she wanted the natural experience as a patient – and she knew others would want that too. FBE providers are skilled in what they do. From our MD to our estheticians – they all promote skin health and inspire confidence with natural, well-rested results. When you don't see her managing the practice, she is at facebar, our sister company doing the same thing there. Her philosophy is "come as you are" and let us help you feel comfortable in your own skin.
Christine
Christine has enjoyed a diverse health care career for over 25 years. She obtained her BSN from University of Portland in 2003 and a Doctorate of Nursing as an Acute Care Nurse Practitioner in 2018 from OHSU.
She has worked in trauma, critical care, and cardiothoracic surgery, and is currently enjoying all things aesthetic medicine.
Christine believes that people should feel their best at any age and enjoys working together to achieve client's goals. In her free time, Christine can be found outside, with plenty of sunscreen of course, seeking adventure with her husband and feisty dog.

Witnessing patients transform their lives and their confidence through plastic surgery is what piqued her interest in transitioning her career to aesthetic medicine. Michelle is always striving for excellence and is excited to help her patients achieve their highest level of confidence.
