"In my current interventional radiology practice, my organization purchased a new fluoroscopy imaging system, and this type of imaging was brand new to our facility. While some of my colleagues became very nervous about training on and learning a new piece of equipment, I had heard from other colleagues in the field that fluoro imaging was great for providing real-time imaging of patients. I jumped in feet first with excitement to train and learn on the new machine, and my supervisor was very proud of how I handled this, given my years of experience in practice. I am of the mindset that I always need to learn and adapt to provide the best care possible to patients."

"I would honestly point out the different clinical rotations that I went through in my DNP training. Having worked in primary care settings in both a large, urban clinic and a small, rural two provider clinic, I learned very different hands-on care techniques from each practice that were unique in their own way. During my first rotation in the large clinic, I learned a very collaborative team-based approach. Then upon shifting to the smaller practice, I needed to adapt and be way more independent. I think both of these experiences helped shape me into a flexible NP that would be joining your practice."

"In my years in an endocrinology practice, the treatment of diabetes surely has changed and adapted over time due to significant research in bettering patient care. In always wanting to provide the best care for patients, I've been very open to moving to non-insulin medications that have been developed as of pretty recently. Drugs like metformin and other inhibitors have drastically changed how patients manage their diabetes for the better. When these new and innovative treatment options come along, I take the time to learn about them and collaborate with my physicians on plans for next steps."
