As a Gas­troen­terol­o­gy Nurse Prac­ti­tion­er, I pro­vide com­pas­sion­ate, evi­dence-based care tai­lored to each patient’s unique needs. I fos­ter an inclu­sive, wel­com­ing envi­ron­ment where patients feel heard, respect­ed, and empow­ered. Being bilin­gual in Eng­lish and Span­ish helps me con­nect more deeply with a diverse patient pop­u­la­tion. I take a col­lab­o­ra­tive approach to care, work­ing close­ly with patients to devel­op per­son­al­ized treat­ment plans ground­ed in the lat­est clin­i­cal guide­lines. Whether man­ag­ing chron­ic GI con­di­tions or address­ing new con­cerns, I focus on edu­ca­tion, com­mu­ni­ca­tion, and long-term well­ness. Above all, I lead with kind­ness, respect, and a true com­mit­ment to my patients’ health.
