Annette C. Villena, APRN-BC

Biography

I enjoy visiting my daughter in Florida and large family in Kansas. I love flowers, nature, weight training, swimming and traveling to beach destinations.

Care Philosophy

I believe that knowledge is power. I strive to educate my patients in order to enable them to better understand their specific condition(s). This in turn leads to better self-care/home management and formation of a personal partnership to improve their quality of care.

Area of Interest

I have a special interest in treating and caring for patients with ischemic heart disease, peripheral artery disease, valvular heart disease and atrial fibrillation.
