About Nurse Practitioners
Nurse Practitioners (NPs) are advanced practice nurses who provide high-quality healthcare services similar to those of a physician and maintain a close working relationships with physicians. The core philosophy of the field is individualized care. NPs make prevention, wellness, and patient education priorities, which can mean fewer prescriptions and less expensive treatments. NPs focus on patients' conditions as well as the effects of illness on the lives of the patients and their families. Informing patients about their health care and encouraging them to participate in decisions are central to the care provided by NPs. Truly your partners in health, patients who see NPs report an extremely high level of satisfaction with the care they receive.

More and more people are choosing NPs as their primary, acute and/or specialty healthcare provider. In addition to being top-notch healthcare providers, NPs deliver a unique blend of nursing and medical care. They provide comprehensive, personalized health education and counseling. NPs assist patients in making better lifestyle and health decisions. NPs have distinguished themselves from other healthcare providers by focusing on the whole person when treating specific health problems and educating their patients on the effects those problems will have on them, their loved ones and their communities.
