Erin Michelle Olmsted, APRN-CNP

As a urologist, I enjoy the diversity of the field and helping patients in a timely manner. I want patients to know they'll receive high-quality, compassionate care from me. I find it gratifying to see the results after we help patients, whether it's with a life-threatening illness or a quality-of-life procedure.

I decided to go into medicine to help others and to challenge myself every day. I chose to specialize in general surgery because I love the variety of all the different surgeries and procedures you can do. I love being able to help my patients and seeing the impact you have had on their lives. I am most passionate about patient education and helping my patients understand their treatment plan and options. I want my patients to know that I am going to meet my patients where they are at and collaborate on the best outcome for you.

What I most enjoy about general surgery is the thrill of problem solving in the operating room and using the latest technology to provide the best care for patients. The most gratifying part of practicing medicine is seeing people return to health and reclaim their lives. I've always been driven by a desire to help others, and I'm here to help my patients every step of the way.
