Credentials

Biographical Profile:
I grew up in Kansas City, Missouri and went to college at the University of Minnesota where I received my Bachelors degree in Nursing. After graduation I moved to Boston, Massachusetts and began my career in nursing first at Beth Israel Hospital and then Massachusetts General Hospital.

After a few years of hospital nursing I began to feel the need for more intense involvement and accountability in patient care. So in 1973 I completed a Masters degree in nursing at Boston, University and in 1979 a second Masters degree from Simmons College, becoming certified as an Adult Nurse Practitioner (ANP). I moved to Arizona with my family in 1991. With their support, I created my own primary care practice, New Paths to Healthcare, L.L.C. in January of 2002. Here, I can offer quality medical and nursing care the way it should be: MEDICAL CARE WITH A NURSE’S TOUCH.

I believe it is important to practice what one preaches, so I exercise regularly, practice Yoga, incorporate vegetarian cuisine into my diet, and for fun I do crossword puzzles (New York Times!), study the American Civil War, and I love to knit.
