Joy Shakelton, APRN, RN, NP

Women's Health Nurse Practitioner
855 State Rte 17M, Monroe, NY
What made you want to become a health care provider or what is your earliest memory of wanting to be one? I have always had an abundance of compassion for women, especially those in underserved areas and those afflicted by addiction or victims of assault. As a teenager I read about a rehabilitation center for women afflicted by addiction and/or histories of prostitution. It was then I realized I had a purpose in life to help women in need. What do you love most about your specialty? / Why did you choose your specialty? I love making women feel comfortable enough to talk about issues they may never otherwise discuss with anyone. I enjoy being able to listen and help them conquer those concerns. I chose Women's health because I have compassion for women and women deserve top quality, compassionate, non-judgmental care for their sensitive concerns. How do you connect with your patients? I connect with my patients by listening to their concerns and paying attention to body language to ensure they are comfortable. What are your interests outside of the office (hobbies, activities)? I enjoy baking, bird watching, and DIY projects. What is your advice for your patients? I share advice on vaginal hygiene and pH tips.
