My Approach
During an initial appointment in a quiet and comfortable setting, I will listen intently to your concerns and work with you to create a way forward to address your healthcare needs.
As a clinical nurse specialist APRN, I have graduate level education and 30 years of experience in healthcare. I can assist you in maintaining your health. I can also provide diagnosis, education, and medication to manage chronic health conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and depression. My emphasis is on health maintenance, reducing risk factors for chronic disease, and successfully managing chronic health issues so that they don't progress.
