About Us

Meet Loic Assobmo, AGNP-BC

I am the co-founder of “Renew Weight-loss and Wellness Spa.” I have 7 years of experience as a nurse practitioner in the primary care setting. I have enjoyed being a Nurse Practitioner so much that I started a children’s book series in order to encourage young kids to consider it as a profession. I dedicated my life to this profession and have served as a primary care provider for my entire career in order to teach my patients how to maintain health, prevent sickness, and address their illnesses. I have a passion for treating conditions like diabetes, hypertension, as well as anxiety and depression. 

I believe that weight loss is at the core of managing chronic medical conditions like diabetes and hypertension. I have also found that when patients lose weight and achieve healthier BMIs, they tend to feel good about themselves, and it boosts their self-esteems. 

Though I still practice medicine as a primary care provider, I was motivated to start this clinic because I was tired of seeing patients coming into my office looking for weight-loss options, and their insurance did not cover the medications they wanted, and the pace of primary care did not allow me to properly work with them to manage their weight-loss. I wanted to create an affordable weight-loss program to serve the growing need of patients in my community.

Meet Patience Marks, WHNP-BC

I am the co-founder of "Renew Weight-loss and Med Spa in Springfield, MA." I have 6+ years of experience as a nurse practitioner in the women's health care setting. Prior to that, I worked as a labor and delivery Registered Nurse.

As a practitioner, I have seen first hand the impact that weight gain has on many patients, both in the sense of health consequences and their mental well-being. Believe it or not, weight gain can also affect both your gynecological and obstetrical health.

Similarly, I’ve also witnessed an overall shift in my patient's confidence and wellness once they accomplish their weight loss goals. Although my professional background is rooted in women’s health, as a practitioner, I am still well-versed on the fundamental principles of nutrition, exercise, and dieting. These are all educational skills which I plan to add to our services, in order ensure a wholesome and healthy weight loss journey for our clients. Our hope is that we not only help you lose weight, but we simultaneously help you maintain healthy long-term habits while doing so.

Moreover, in the near future, I plan to incorporate my experience as a women’s health provider by offering additional services through our Medspa, such as pelvic floor therapies and vaginal rejuvenation treatments. My hope is to create affordable vaginal treatment programs to serve the growing women’s health needs of patients in our community.
