For many years, Maloma Greene served as a critical care nurse in the intensive care unit, caring for some of the sickest patients in the hospital. During that time, she began asking an important question: How could patients be helped long before they ever reached the ICU?

Motivated by that question, she became a Family Nurse Practitioner and transitioned into primary care. Over time, she recognized that many people benefit from additional time, education, practice, and community support between healthcare visits. After discovering lifestyle medicine, she pursued additional training and became a Diplomate of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine — the field’s board-level credential — joining a growing community of clinicians applying evidence-informed lifestyle education that helps people build habits associated with better health and chronic-disease risk reduction.

Legacy Creek Community Wellness Foundation was created to bring those interventions into a community setting — a place where individuals can learn, practice, and sustain the habits that support long-term health.
