It was a book report in second grade that solidified Laura Murphy’s dream of becoming a nurse. Since that young age, Laura has held on to that book report; saved as a memento of living her life’s dream. Laura is a Central Illinois native, born in Peoria, and living in Morton for the majority of her life. Her childhood summer’s spent traveling, and camping.

In 1997, Laura graduated with a Bachelors of Science degree in Nursing (RN, BSN) from Saint Francis Medical Center College of Nursing. She went on to work as a nurse at OSF St Francis Medical Center, specializing in Cardiology. After 18 years in hospital, she decided she wanted to do more with her career, focusing on preventative care.

In 2010, Laura completed her MSN and began to focus on teaching. Soon after, she realized she missed taking care of patients, and returned to school. She received the Master of Science in Nursing for Family Nurse Practitioner from Saint Francis Medical Center College of Nursing in Peoria, Illinois in May 2014. Since completing training, graduation, and successfully passed the board certified exam, Laura has become a Certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C).

Laura enjoys practicing physical and functional medicine, as well as medical aesthetics. Prior to her arrival at Senara she spent several years practicing both physical and functional medicine and medical weight loss.

“I want everyone to be healthy and be able to function at their 100% potential,” she says. “I drove by Senara one day and said what an amazing place; I would love to work there. I knew that I did not to work at a traditional medical office and wanted to focus on promotion of health and prevention of illness, so everyone can be healthy from the inside out. This is Senara’s primary focus and mission- “Live life well” as is mine.”

Laura is a member of several professional organizations including the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners and Illinois Society of Advance Practice Nurses. She is certified in Advance Cardiac Life support.

In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her family- husband Shane, two daughters Natalie and Isabelle, step son Braden, and labradoodle Charlie. Shane has worked for the Village of Peoria Heights/ Peoria Heights Police department for the past 20+ years as is the Communications Supervisor. Laura is also fond of traveling, cooking, and DIY projects.

“Live a life you love.” That’s the personal mantra of Christina (Tina) Lisowski, MSN, FNP-BC. And for her, it’s what drives her as a nurse practitioner to help people do that every day through their healthcare. Growing up in the south suburbs of Chicago, Tina was always active. From gymnanstics and cheerleading, to diving, and competitive tumbling, she was always involved in athletics of some sort.

Her love for exercise and her experience with athletic trainers helping her recover after an ACL injury led her to earning her Bachelor’s of Science degree in Exercise Science from Illinois State University. As she finished her undergraduate work, she realized she wanted to go further in helping people and provide care at a deeper level. With this in mind, and at the encouragement of her friends and family, she decided to become a nurse, and continued her studies in the nursing program at Illinois State University, Mennonite College of Nursing all the way through earning her Nurse Practitioner designations.

After earning her BSN degree, Tina worked in the Pediatric ICU at OSF Children’s Hospital, which was very rewarding for her. It was her discovery of Functional Medicine, however, that ultimately led to her pursuing her Nurse Practitioner designation. She realized that through the practice of Functional Medicine, she could combine both her nursing and Exercise Science degrees to truly help people live their best lives.

Upon completion of her Nurse Practitioner License, Tina joined a practice in Bloomington that provided both Functional Medicine and Cosmetic Aesthetic treatments. With that experience, Tina was drawn to Senara, where she could further her skills in both areas. For Tina, she loves “seeing the satisfaction on people’s faces when we help improve their lives. When we give them something they may not have known was possible.” Being able to focus on prevention and promotion of health with patient’s is something that she looks forward to doing with all of her patients at Senara.

Tina keeps active in her free time with her daughter, Lillian, who she describes as her “mini me and bestie.” She also has a cat named Luna, and travels to visit her extended family in Chicagoland often. Always the athlete, Tina now participates in competitive Body Building, and is a personal trainer, doing strength coaching and nutrition for people. Her other hobby is planning Disney vacations for not only herself and Lillian, but her friends, too.

“Live a life you love.” That’s the personal mantra of Christina (Tina) Lisowski, MSN, FNP-BC. And... Read More

She believes everyone deserves kindness and compassion, and she does her part to make the world a little kinder in her work and day to day life. As a Nurse Practitioner she fulfills that objective by treating her patients with an open ear and open heart to give them the best care possible.

A native of nearby Eureka, IL, Megan began her career as a CNA at a local nursing home.

Before coming to Senara, Megan worked as a Nurse Practitioner in an urgent care setting.

Senara co-founder and CEO, Penny Kramer, is filled with energy that never stops. She also has an innate curiosity to learn new things and a strong will to take on tough challenges. The tougher the challenge, the more Penny thrives.

Penny brings every ounce of her endless energy and enthusiasm, and her extraordinary multi-tasking skills to her role as CEO of Senara. “Keith’s job is to take care of our guests’ health,” said Penny. “To focus on that, he needs to know that everything else is taken care of – and that’s my job.” Penny’s strengths are people and systems. She sees all the pieces of the puzzle, and then puts them together. That means she’s in charge of everything from human resources and training to marketing and the technology Senara uses.

She also understands how important it is to get out from behind the desk, and Penny can be seen literally everywhere at Senara. She especially enjoys greeting guests to make them feel at home, just as she did when the first Kramer Chiropractic office opened in 2002. Back then, when she joined Dr. Kramer in the family business, Penny said goodbye to a promising marketing career without any regrets.

“I’m here because I share Keith’s passion for spreading the message about how to live a healthy lifestyle,” said Penny, who also had primary responsibility for overseeing the Senara building’s construction. “It means so much to us both – knowing that what we do can make a difference in the quality of someone’s life. And that’s really why we built Senara. It gives us the space and the ideal environment to offer different services that help our guests “Live Life Well.” The Kramers met at Iowa State University, their alma mater, and they married in 1995. After Dr. Kramer graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic, the couple moved to embrace Peoria as their new home.

Their daughter, Grace, has been the center and light in their life since her birth in 2002. The Kramer family spends their spare time together and enjoys working out, reading and traveling. Grace attends Iowa State University and you can always find the Kramers at the Cyclone football games every fall, they love their Iowa State teams.

Penny also is an avid weight lifter and nutrition fanatic. You can find her daily at the gym, and she loves sharing her knowledge of health and fitness to everyone she meets.
