Are you tired of being told your lab results are "normal" when you still don't feel like yourself? At Victory Rejuvenate, we believe in looking beyond standard testing to understand what's truly going on in your body.
We recently sat down with Jude, our Director of Regenerative Medicine and an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN), to discuss her unique approach to patient care. With over 20 years of clinical experience, Jude specializes in hormone optimization, peptide therapies, and an integrative approach to mental health. Read on to get to know Jude and learn how she prioritizes long-term function over quick fixes.
Q: Can you tell us a little bit about yourself and what you do?
A: Jude is an advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) bringing over 20 years of rich clinical experience to her patients, including two dedicated decades serving in the military. Currently, she serves as the Director of the Regenerative Medicine program here at Victory Rejuvenate. Her core specialties include hormone optimization, peptide therapies, and an integrative approach to mental health, which features ketamine-assisted therapy.
Q: What inspired you to get into this field, and what is your treatment philosophy?
A: Coming from a traditional medicine background, Jude frequently saw a frustrating pattern: patients were being dismissed because their labs looked "normal," even though they were experiencing very real, disruptive symptoms.
This inspired her treatment philosophy. Jude believes in uncovering what is actually happening in the body rather than just brushing symptoms off as "normal aging." Her approach centers on actively listening to the patient, treating them thoughtfully, and prioritizing long-term, sustainable function over temporary quick fixes.
Q: Where do you currently treat patients?
A: Jude treats patients at Victory Rejuvenate, conveniently located at 4303 Victory Drive in South Austin (right next to the Target off Ben White and South Lamar).
She offers both in-person and telehealth visits. While she prefers to see patients in-person for the initial comprehensive evaluation, she gladly offers virtual visits to accommodate busy schedules—especially for quick peptide consultations and follow-up appointments.
Q: What is the connection between your practice and Victory Medical Compounding Pharmacy?
A: One of the biggest benefits for our patients is on-site convenience. The clinic works directly with its own compounding pharmacy, located right on the first floor of the same building.
- Quality & Safety: All prescribed medications and peptides are sourced through this highly regulated pharmacy, utilizing third-party testing to ensure maximum safety, quality, and consistency.
- Fast Prescription Delivery: Prescriptions typically have a rapid 24-hour turnaround. Patients can easily pick up their medications right after their appointment or opt for convenient delivery.
- Direct Pharmacist Access: Patients have easy, direct access to speak with a pharmacist whenever they have questions about their dosing or medications.
Q: What should a new patient expect during their first visit, and what is the cost?
A: Your first visit is a comprehensive deep dive into your symptoms, health goals, and medical history. Jude will review any old labs you bring in, or she will order new ones if necessary to confirm conditions and craft a highly personalized treatment plan.
The Cost: The standard rate for a one-hour office consultation is $200/hour.
Q: Are you accepting new patients, and how can someone schedule a session?
A: Yes! Jude is currently accepting new patients and can usually get you scheduled for the same day or the very next day.
