About Heather M. Pfeiffer
After 10 years in trauma and emergency care as a flight nurse, Heather Pfeiffer, FNP, decided she wanted to focus on keeping patients healthy and safe. Becoming a family practice nurse practitioner was her natural next step. In her practice, she emphasizes patient education to empower patients to be good decision-makers in their own care choices; whole, self-care for wellness; open communication; and partnering with patients in health.
She considers her most important roles as a provider to be guiding good health choices, teaching healthy living and supporting health choices that best fit the person. "I enjoy the gift of helping others," she says. "My philosophy of care is to recognize patients as individuals who are a part of a larger context of family, work, friends, sport, stressors and environment. I work with patients and families on health, wellness and navigating illness care."

Heather is great: good listener, great explanations, and often thinks of additional details that could impact my self care health plan

Dr Pfieffer is the best kind of provider there is. The reasons being, she is respectful and listens to what you have to say and if she feels that what you are saying about your health is not to your benefit, she will kindly explain why. She always wants the best for you. I know that when I get to see her, that I will always feel good after I leave. She is smart, kind and funny, very relatable.
