Irina Reyes, APN

What are some of the specific conditions you treat?

I treat many urgent conditions, including upper respiratory, urinary tract and ear infections. 

What techniques or procedures do you use in your practice?

We perform laceration repairs, suture removals, and X-rays in our office. 

Describe some of your professional highlights.

Prior to becoming a nurse practitioner, I worked as a women's health nurse for 15 years, with a particular focus on reproductive endocrinology. As a nurse practitioner, I gained some background in cardiac and vascular care, and I incorporate my previous clinical experience into my current practice in urgent care. 

What would you like patients to know about your approach to care?

I strive to build meaningful connections with my patients by attentively and empathetically listening to their concerns and actively involving them in their healthcare decisions. My clinical approach integrates wellness promotion and illness prevention alongside the management of acute conditions. I firmly believe that optimal health is achieved when the body, mind and spirit are all in balance.

What inspired you to become a nurse practitioner?

To me, being a nurse practitioner is to provide compassionate, holistic care with the empathy of a nurse but on a more autonomous level. I appreciate how this position challenges me intellectually by requiring me to stay current on a broad range of medical topics.
