What is Family Practice?
Family practice is the medical specialty which provides continuing, comprehensive healthcare for the individual and family. It is a specialty in breadth that integrates all the different fields of medicine. The scope of family medicine encompasses all ages, both genders, each organ system and every disease entity. At the center of this process is the patient-physician relationship with the patient viewed in the context of the family and community.
What is a Family Nurse Practitioner (NP)?
A Family Nurse Practitioner (Angela and Ashley) is an advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) who has completed a Masters of Nursing and passed the national certification examination. Nurse practitioners treat both physical and mental conditions through comprehensive history taking, physical exams, and ordering and interpreting diagnostic tests. Ashley and Angela serve as your primary healthcare provider and see patients of all ages. They are great listeners and make prevention, wellness, and patient education their priorities.
