Kacy Brandt, FNP was born and raised in Southwest Virginia and has a passion for caring for others. “I want to help my patients improve their quality of life,” said Brandt. “As a nurse practitioner, it’s important my patients know I care about them. My goal is to help them better understand their condition and work with them to meet their goals.”
Courtney Conkin, FNP believes the key to helping patients is first understanding where they are in their journey to manage their condition and meeting them there. “Once I know where a patient is in understanding their condition, then we can work together to create an individual plan that meets their needs and helps them achieve their goals. A diabetic myself, I understand the struggles my patients face, and we can relate to one another.”
