Lena Lax
My approach to healthcare is rooted in providing compassionate, evidence-based care that respects each patient's individuality. I believe excellent healthcare starts with understanding and respecting each person's unique journey, prioritizing open communication and active listening. As a family nurse practitioner, I care for patients of all ages and genders. I am passionate about helping families navigate parenthood, from lactation concerns to adolescent mental health issues. I am also passionate about providing gender-affirming care and supporting the LGBTQ+ community. I strive to provide care that respects and affirms each patient's gender identity and expression. Overall, my goal is to empower my patients to engage in their health journey by helping them make informed decisions that enhance their overall well-being.
