As a leading provider of Health Care Services, we take pride in caring for your health care needs. We are proud to be a pioneer in HealthCare in that our clinic is owned and operated by a Family Nurse Practitioner. Nurse practitioners are registered nurses who have completed an advanced education (a minimum of a master's degree) and training in the diagnosis and management of common medical conditions, including illlnesses. Once formal education is complete the nurse practitioner is eligible for national certification through the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). Certification is the official recognition of achievement, expertise and clinical judment. It is a mark of excellence that requires continued learning and skill development to maintain. Nurse practitioners provide a broad range of health care services and may serve as a patient's regular health care provider.

We are dedicated to serving the needs of our customers each and every day. Our provider, Robin West MSN, ARNP, FNP, BC is a Board Certified Family Nurse Practitioner with over fifteen years of practice experience. She received her Bachelors of Science in Nursing from Graceland University, as well as a Bachelors of Science in Psychology at Park University. Her Masters Degree was obtained through Webster University with an emphasis on Health Education. She then completed post gradute work at Graceland University as a Family Nurse Practitioner.  Her focus on health care is from the patients perspective which is opposite of most physician practices. Traditionally doctors treat symptoms, Nurse Practitioners, on the other hand are trained to see the whole person and treat the causes as well as the symptoms. The ultimate goal is full patient recovery and minimizing relapse through patient treatment, education and encouragement.

Each person is different and our customized approach, tailored to individual needs, allows us to create achievable goals that are based on your lifestyle and physicality. At Family Health and Wellness Center, our focus is not only your physical health but your emotional, spiritual and intellectual health as well. We are committed to help you make changes in your life and health care.
