Dr. Christina Gilyard, DNP

Nurse Practitioner
114 W 30th St, Ste 800, Winston-Salem, NC
When I was young, my dad was diagnosed with diabetes. I remember how his diagnosis changed not only his life but our entire family's daily routine. What stood out to me most, though, was the role of his nurses, which influenced my desire to become a registered nurse. I became deeply aware of how powerful and essential quality medical care could be, not just in treating disease but improving a patient's quality of life. I wanted to be someone who could offer others the same kind of support, reassurance and expertise that meant so much to my family. Once I was in the nursing field, I decided to take my career a step further by becoming a nurse practitioner. I now get to build long-term relationships with patients and guide them through their health journey, whether that involves maintaining good health, or managing acute or chronic medical conditions. I work to meet people where they are, no matter what is going on in their lives. I want to understand their whole story, not just their symptoms. I have seen how powerful it is to listen and connect to my patients, and to treat each one with the respect and empathy everyone deserves. I offer my patients not only clinical expertise but a safe space where they feel heard, which is especially important in communities that have traditionally had fewer places to receive healthcare. I see healthcare as a partnership. I want to empower my patients to take charge of their own health by providing the knowledge and support needed to guide them to a healthier lifestyle. When they know I genuinely care, it opens the door to better communication, better care and better outcomes. I am married, and my husband and I are growing our own family and love spending time with our extended family.
