As a family medicine nurse practitioner, I enjoy getting to know each of my patients and learning about their unique life experiences, values, and beliefs. My goal as a health care provider is to stay current on research and evidence-based practices, giving patients the opportunity to get the best care possible. During office appointments, I provide education to patients and urge them to learn more about their health care needs so they can be involved in the decision making of their treatment plan. I believe working together as a team will help patients live their healthiest lives."
