Cara Wells has been dedicated to helping people achieve better health through the Ideal Protein Protocol since 2015. Initially, she assisted Dr. Erik’s patients in losing weight to relieve joint pressure and reduce inflammation. Recognizing a broader need, she soon expanded her efforts to reach the greater community and beyond.

Understanding that each patient’s needs are unique and often challenging, Cara introduced additional services, treatments, and products to Renew Wellness. This commitment to supporting patients in their health journeys led her and Dr. Erik to establish Renew Wellness in conjunction with Chiro Clinic.

As the COO of Renew Wellness, Cara plays a pivotal role in the organization’s success. Outside of her professional life, she enjoys managing a busy household of children and pets, volunteering at her church and her children’s school, gardening, cooking, hiking, traveling, and spending quality time with family and friends.
