Our Clinic is proud to have four Nurse Practitioners (NPs) contributing to the growth of our GMF. We have seen a great benefit to patient care since the integration of our Nurse Practitioners. Nurse Practitioners assume responsibility for tasks related to physical assessment, provision of clinical impressions, treatment for short-term acute illness, monitoring patients with stable chronic conditions, order testing and organize referrals.
