Juan Fernandez, MSN, APRN, FNP-BC, practices family medicine with an approach informed by experience in emergency medicine, urgent care, and weight loss. He helps sort through symptoms, explain options, and make a workable plan. Patients often describe him as kind, respectful, and thorough—patient with the process and focused on finding answers.

A Family Nurse Practitioner and Advanced Practice Registered Nurse, Juan earned his Master of Science in Nursing from the University of Miami. He is ANCC board certified (FNP-BC) and has three years of experience in his field.

His path into healthcare began when his father was diagnosed with cancer. That experience, along with a strong interest in science and how the body works on a microbiological level, continues to guide his work. He most enjoys seeing patients get better.
