Patricia A. Bradley, WHNP-BC

Biography

Spending time with our children and grandchildren is one my favorite things to do. My husband and I have two dogs at home, and we love vacationing to places where they can join in our adventures. My personal hobbies include photography and bird-watching, especially hummingbirds.

Care Philosophy

My goal as a women's health nurse practitioner is to partner with women to achieve their best health. My first priority is to listen to the concerns patients have and then provide education and resources to achieve their goals. I want to put women at ease for their visits by providing compassionate and personal care.

Area of Interest

I enjoy caring for women throughout their lifespan, helping to empower women to achieve their best physical and mental well-beings. My clinical interests include reproductive health, contraception education and management, prenatal and postpartum care, health maintenance for women of all ages, prevention and treatment of gynecologic infections, management of polycystic ovarian syndrome, breast health, and support of patients and their families through perinatal loss.
