Andrea Powell, NP

What makes Andrea most passionate about being a healthcare provider is the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in someone's life, often during their most vulnerable moments. She enjoys building trusting relationships with patients, educating them about their health, and empowering them to make informed decisions. As a nurse practitioner, Andrea values treating the whole person and not just the diagnosis, while combining evidence-based medicine with compassion and respect. Knowing that her knowledge, advocacy, and care can improve a patient's quality of life is what motivates her to continue growing and serving every day. Andrea believes that a primary care provider should deliver comprehensive, patient centered care by addressing both physical and behavioral health needs, recognizing that mental and emotional well-being are essential to overall health. Through prevention, early intervention, education, and collaborative care, a primary care provider should build trusting, long term relationships that empower patients to achieve their best possible quality of life. Outside of work, Andrea enjoys spending time with her family, staying active through Pilates and walking, and exploring new places, restaurants, and travel destinations. She also enjoys learning about personal finance, investing, and wellness, and she values maintaining a healthy balance between caring for her patients and taking care of herself.
