About Me
With an impressive 23 years of experience as a Pediatric Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner, Kimberly's unique blend of expertise and compassion sets her apart. Her dedication to nurturing and caring for her patients is a testament to her exceptional qualities.
Kimberly's philosophy of care is centered around the belief that parents are the best advocates for their children's health. “I always listen to the parents; they usually know best,” she said. “If they tell you something about their child is off, they're off.” Her joy comes from witnessing her young patients bounce back and quickly recover.
Kimberly holds a Master of Science in Nursing (Pediatric Nurse Practitioner Program) from the University of South Florida Tampa and a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Wilkes College (University), Wilkes Barre. She is a Board-Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner (PNP-BC) and an Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner (APRN).
As a healthcare provider, Kimberly is inspired by her interactions with patients and staff. "The staff is phenomenal, from the nurse assistants to the doctors – everyone is warm, welcoming, and so knowledgeable," she shared.
Outside of work, Kimberly loves to read, walk, and spend quality time with her husband and two children. She enjoys visiting local spots like Duffy's, The Field, and Otto's.
