Meet our Women First Midlevel Team
Our midlevel team consists of five nurse practitioners and one physician assistant, all of whom
play an integral role in your patient care at Women First. Partnering with the physicians, our
midlevels can provide much of the routine follow-up care you may require, and they often are
the health care providers should you need a same day appointment. Our midlevels see their own
established patients for annual exams and follow-up, as well as problem visits. Some of our
midlevels specialize in lactation counseling services and the evaluation and treatment of
recurrent vulvovaginal problems, providing invaluable services that help us achieve the full
circle of care for our patients. Women First…in all we do.
