Elizabeth is a Family Nurse Practitioner, certified by the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners. She earned her Master's of Nursing from Samford University in Homewood, Alabama, where she was also inducted to Sigma Theta Tau, the International Honor Society of Nursing. Prior to that, she earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing from the University of Florida (Go Gators) in 2009. She also has a bachelor degree in Spanish and another bachelor degree in print journalism. Prior to nursing, she worked as a newspaper reporter and won multiple first- and second-place writing awards, including the Shining Star award. Her nursing career includes more than 5 years working in the level one Trauma-Surgical ICU at Shands at the University of Florida, helping to treat the sickest of the sick. She then spent several years working as a travel nurse, landing as an Assistant Nurse Manager at Dr. P. Phillips Hospital in Orlando. Perhaps one of her favorite jobs was as a summer camp nurse for many summers at Warren Willis United Methodist Camp in Fruitland Park, where now as an APRN she continues to serve as the camp's health center director. For nearly half a decade, she served as the sole NP at a local pediatric office managing multiple acute and chronic primary care conditions. As an autonomous NP, she is thrilled to be able to open her own clinic and meet the health care needs of her patients.

2025 well child check survey results! This year's two questions were "What is your favorite vegetable" and "What do you want to be when you grow up?" Typically our younger patients were the quickest to know their favorite vegetable (so eat some more veggies, teenagers!) and we have some very career-focused kids! Full poll results in the comments. Can you find yours?

Favorite vegetable:
1: Carrot: 122
2: Broccoli: 114
3: Corn: 55
4: Cucumber: 46
5: Veggies? Ew!: 41

Future career:

Last week to change medicaid plans for the year!!

If you need help, please call Crystal TODAY in our office! We have contracts with Florida Community Care and straight medicaid. If you live in Orange County, you can get Aetna Medicaid. (This is not Aetna Healthy Kids through Florida KidCare, just the Medicaid plans.)

We have had several of our patients affected by the CMS decision look into Florida Community Care, and they are covering about the same for services those children need, so please check it out to see if it will cover what you need if your child was affected by CMS.

Changing your plan is NOT reapplying for medicaid.

Changing your plan is something you are able to do online yourself at the Florida Medicaid Members Portal!

But you have to do it this week, so don't wait!!
