Andrew L. Quinn Jr., NP

I chose to become a family nurse practitioner because I am passionate about giving back to the community on an individual level. I have always had a keen interest in science and love meeting new people. As a provider, I aspire to work with the patient together in partnership to reach his or her health goals. From working in the emergency department, my approach to patient care is to treat the person behind the patient. I believe in caring for the person in a holistic context, treating their health across the lifespan to maximize their wellness outcomes and goals. My area of special interest is orthopaedics and sports medicine. I was a dancer, a martial artist and currently teach fitness, so I have always had a passion in anatomy, health and wellness. To this end, orthopaedics was the perfect match between my interests and aspirations. Outside of work, I like to be active and enjoy physical fitness, not only in the gym but also outside (hikes, biking). I also like to crochet, cross stitch, read and write poetry.

I chose to become a provider because I wanted to guide others on their path to being the healthiest version of themselves. It is a privilege to be a partner in people's journey to have the healthiest life possible. In my spare time, I enjoy yoga, gardening and spending time with my family.

As a women’s health nurse practitioner (WHNP), I am passionate about quality care. The foundation of great care is listening to the patient. If I do this effectively, I find that patients tell me what I need to know and this guides us to the correct plan for the best patient care and outcomes. Some of my specialty skills include management of contraception, intrauterine devices (IUDs) , abnormal bleeding and periods, evaluation of abnormal pap smears, menopause, depression/anxiety/premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). In my spare time I love quilting, gardening, the mountains and being a foster for puppies needing homes.
