Stephanie Garcia, FNP

Stephanie Garcia, FNP

Nurse Practitioner
865 Westlake Dr, Mount Airy, NC
In high school we were given the option to take courses to become a certified nursing assistant as an elective. I wasn't sure I was even going to like it, but it turned out it was that class that made me pursue my Licensed Practical Nurse certification. While I enjoyed working as an LPN, I felt limited in where I could work, so I completed more schooling to first become a registered nurse, and then to become a Family Nurse Practitioner. Earlier in my career, while working in an emergency department, I found myself wondering what happened to people after they were discharged. Now, as an FNP, I get to follow my patients through all stages of life. I love hearing about their children, grandchildren, parents, friends and even pets. I believe caring for someone is about more than reviewing their bloodwork or imaging; it's about understanding who they are. Family medicine allows me to do that. As a primary care provider, I help my patients understand the latest evidence-based practices. I want to work with them to make the best health decisions for their situation. I want to create a relaxing, laid-back environment that welcomes open communication and allows each patient to feel empowered to take charge of their own health. I grew up in Mount Airy and have always loved North Carolina. My husband and I have been married since 2021 and have three beautiful children together, as well as an Old English Sheepdog. When I am not caring for patients or helping my husband manage his fencing company, I enjoy volunteering at my children's schools and watching my kids in their activities. At church, I spend time focusing on the children's ministry and volunteering for community outreach.
