Samantha (Sam) Carson is excited to take on her new role as the Chief Operating Officer of Restor Metabolix of Asheville. Sam brings a unique combination of over a decade of experience in business and management and six years of experience in medicine.
Prior to entering the medical field, Sam began her career as the Administrative Assistant to the District Manager of Fred’s Department Store chain and ended as the Manager of Charlotte Russe.

Later that year, Sam began working with Dr. Starr in his Hand Surgery practice. She completed her Master of Science of Nursing degree and continued to work with Dr. Starr as his Nurse Practitioner.
Sam has cared for diabetic patients from the beginning of her nursing career and jumped at the opportunity to help open the first Restor Metabolix clinic in North Carolina. In addition to her duties as the Lead Nurse Practitioner and COO, Sam serves as a consultant to the larger corporate Restor Metabolix. She has been instrumental in developing our Electronic Health Record and is actively working on perfecting the protocols of this novel therapy.

Lead Clinical Assistant
Jesse Westbrook is thrilled to be the Lead Clinical Medical Assistant at Restor Metabolix. A native of Charleston, SC, Jesse graduated Cum Laude from the University of South Carolina in 2019 with a degree in Public Health. Her interest in medicine grew from her work as a Student Athletic Trainer for football and tennis teams.
After college, Jesse worked as a Field Service Representative with ACO Medical Supply. In 2020, she began working as the Medical Assist for Dr. Starr at Asheville Orthopedic Associates. During this time, Jesse continued her education, first completing her training as a Clinical Medical Assistant and later as a Phlebotomist.
