Turena Tante

Turena joined Midtown OBGYN in 2025 after serving the Columbus community in a variety of settings since 1997. She is originally from Metairie, LA, but she moved to the area in 1996. She has worked as a Registered Nurse and a Family Nurse Practitioner at Mercy Med, Piedmont, CSU, and even had her own business at one point. Turena’s primary focus right now is seeing in-clinic patients. When not at work she enjoys an adventurous life with her husband, Tommy. She is a proud mom to six amazing kids that keep her praying, laughing, and technologically literate. Being from Louisiana, she celebrates Mardi Gras to the max! Her hobbies include traveling, hiking with friends, and turning her house into a DIY dream – one renovation project (and trip to the hardware store) at a time.
