Philosophy
One of my core beliefs in healthcare has always been rooted in patient education. Only through the building of strong patient relationships can a provider begin to discover where that patient's teaching should begin. While I highly value evidence based medicine, I also feel there should never be a one size fits all medical approach. Knowing my patients personally and their individual circumstances can help navigate the healthcare terrain effectively.
Cheryl grew up in East Texas and graduated from Gilmer High School. She moved to the Tyler area in 1998 and went on to pursue a career in nursing. This led to continued education in the nursing field including a masters degree as a Family Nurse Practitioner and post-masters in Acute care from Texas Tech Health Sciences Center.
Cheryl has worked in various capacities as a nurse practitioner including hospital, emergency, urgent care, long term care and family medicine. She has worked with many local doctors and established relationships within the medical community that have helped her achieve her long-time goal of owning her own practice.
She and her husband, Mark, live in Whitehouse and have a small army of children who attend Whitehouse ISD. She is excited to be able to provide care to the community where she raises her family and calls home.
