A native of Cody, Wyoming Tricia graduated from the University of Wyoming in 1997. She made the decision to move to Billings soon after, motivated by both a desire to be closer to family and the chance to begin her nursing career at St. Vincent Healthcare and Yellowstone Surgery Center.
Much of her nursing career has been in the operating room, and she has a passion for plastic surgery in particular. Prior to working for Yellowstone Plastic Surgery, she worked closely with Dr. Steven Grosso and Dr. Walter Peet (prior to his retirement) on many surgical cases.
“I enjoyed the challenge of reconstructive and cosmetic surgical cases,” she recalls. “When the opportunity came to work exclusively with Yellowstone Plastic Surgery, I jumped on it.”
She’s been with Yellowstone Plastic Surgery for over 15 years and was eager to found their aesthetic division— Premier Aesthetics of Yellowstone Plastic Surgery— in 2014. She’s very proud of their excellent team and is excited to be able to treat patients in their new Med Spa, located in Shiloh Crossing.
When she’s isn’t working, Tricia embraces the excitement and chaos that is motherhood. She and her husband, Donovan, have three very active children and a puppy. She enjoys skiing, cooking, traveling indulging in good food, exercise and— when time allows— crocheting.
“Our level of compassion, dedication, and the excellent level of care that we provide emotionally and physically is without compromise”, she says. “We truly, wholeheartedly care about our patients.” -Tricia
