Clinical Nurse Specialist | Family Nurse Practitioner | CEO of AskNurseAlice.com & TheMediaRX.com | NBC Medical Contributor | Thriving at the intersection of healthcare & media
As a dedicated Clinical Nurse Specialist and Nurse Practitioner, I've devoted my career to not just caring for patients, but also empowering them and the wider public with the knowledge needed to make informed health decisions. My journey in healthcare, enriched by hands-on clinical experiences and advanced practice nursing, has fueled my passion for medical education and advocacy, leading me to wear multiple hats with equal dedication and excellence. Founder of AskNurseAlice.com and TheMediaRx.com, I've channeled my expertise into platforms that bridge the gap between complex medical information and public understanding. These ventures embody my commitment to demystifying healthcare, offering accessible, trustworthy advice and insights. My role as a TV Medical Correspondent has further allowed me to reach a broader audience, translating the language of medicine into actionable knowledge, and bringing to light the stories that matter most in our quest for health and wellness. I believe in the power of informed communities and the role of healthcare professionals not just within clinical settings but also on the larger societal stage. Through my work, I aim to inspire, educate, and advocate for health literacy, patient empowerment, and the relentless pursuit of compassionate, evidence-based care. Let's connect and explore how we can collaborate to make a lasting impact in the world of healthcare.
