Laura Porter, NP, MSN, RN

I have always enjoyed taking care of people. Nursing is an excellent way to provide care to patients. After doing so for years, I wanted to provide care for my patients on a more advanced level, hence why I became a Family Nurse Practitioner! My approach to care is to provide excellent, compassionate and quality care while promoting a healthcare environment that is respectful to all individuals! I enjoy Family Medicine as it is a wide spectrum, which covers a variety of body systems and ages. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, spending time with family and reading.

Patient must be checked in by 7:30 p.m. to be seen.

I often compare life to a puzzle, putting the pieces together to create an enjoyable picture. For me, those puzzle pieces in school were journalism, biology, childcare and health that fit together to become a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner. I enjoy helping children with their life-puzzles too, by working with their families to put the pieces together, keeping them healthy and safe while they reach their goals. My areas of clinical interest include allergy, immunology, cardiology and behavioral health. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, gardening, cooking, reading and spending time with my family.
