Anika Gannon, ARNP, DNP

I chose women's health care because I find it life-giving to enter into deep conversations with women about some of the most difficult and sensitive questions surrounding their health. I desire to create an environment where my patients feel empowered and knowledgeable My goal is to partner with women in their health and life journey. Ultimately, I hope to empower women to become their own advocate for their health and well-being.

I have a long history in medicine. I was a nurse for 13 years before returning to school to become a registered nurse practitioner. Preventative medicine means more times doing the things you enjoy, and less time managing a long list of prescriptions or office visits. My goal is to get you out of the doctor's office and back to the activities you love by treating the root cause of your health condition rather than just the symptoms. Being able to have a meaningful, positive impact on a person's health is immensely satisfying to me.

I enjoy science and helping people, so becoming a healthcare professional was the ultimate way to help people and provide a good customer experience. I also want to highlight my interest in caring for the LGBTQ community. I help people with upper and lower GI tract conditions, including acid reflux, swallowing issues, stomach pain, intestinal pain, constipation, diarrhea, and rectal bleeding. I also help with fatty liver and abnormal liver function tests.
