Clinical Providers

Family Nurse Practitioners

​A Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) is a licensed medical professional responsible for general patient care. FNPs can diagnose, prescribe medication, and take charge of their patients’ care. FNPs are highly effective as primary care providers. Much like family doctors, FNPs work with patients of all ages throughout their lives.
