Meet The Resilient Health Team

Karen Ptacek Resilient Nurse

Karen Ptacek, RN, B.S.N.

Resilient Health Nurse

Karen, our beloved nurse, received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Wichita State University. Upon graduation she and her family moved to Round Rock, Texas. She and Dr. Hausman-Cohen have been working together since 1998 after first meeting at the Austin Diagnostic Clinic when they both still had babies. Patients love Karen for her calm, informed demeanor and wise counsel. In turn, she cherishes the rapport she has developed with all of our patients over the last 20 years. With her wonderfully warm personality and her tremendous base of knowledge in medicine, she is an extraordinary asset to our patients and staff at Resilient Health.
