Meet Your Team
Attending Physician (Doctor)

A resident is a doctor who has completed medical school and is enrolled in a residency training program in a particular specialty. Residents work under the careful supervision of attending doctors.
Advanced Practice Providers
Advanced practice providers are nurse practitioners (NPs) or physician assistants (PAs). They are health professionals who may be members of your healthcare team. In collaboration with the supervising doctor, they can deliver a broad range of medical and surgical services, conduct physical exams, diagnose and treat illnesses, order and interpret tests, counsel on preventive healthcare, assist in surgery, and prescribe medications.
Registered Nurse (RN)
A clinical registered nurse plans and coordinates your overall nursing care and assigns tasks as appropriate to other members of the nursing team.
