Amanda began her career in medicine in 2002 as a CNA at Bacon County Hospital before becoming an RN in 2007. In 2010, she began travel nursing, working from South Carolina down to St. Cloud, Florida while specializing in Emergency Room care. She also served in disaster relief efforts as an ER nurse, with her last deployment helping in Panama City Beach following Hurricane Michael in 2018.
After graduating as a Nurse Practitioner (South University 2017), Amanda continued serving patients in emergency medicine and hospitalist roles at Memorial Satilla and Coffee Regional before transitioning into family medicine in 2019 — while still continuing ER, hospitalist, and urgent care PRN work.
Amanda and her husband, Leslie Deen Jr., have two sons, Austin and Jarrod. Outside of work, Amanda enjoys watching her boys play ball, spending time at the beach, relaxing with family and friends, and volunteering through her church and local school system as a medical liaison for Appling County.
