Andrea Armstrong, NP
Houston
Nurse Practitioner, an advanced practice degree for primary care providers who complete master’s-level training and board certification and who practice medicine independently. Related degrees include ANP (Adult Nurse Practitioner), FNP (Family Nurse Practitioner), WHNP (Women's Health Nurse Practitioner), and APNP (Advance Practice Nurse Practitioner).
I strive to appreciate the wholeness of each individual. This means seeking to view a person from a biological, psychological, social and spiritual perspective. My goal is to partner with each patient to prevent or heal disease using the least invasive and most collaborative path. I also take a special interest in providing affirming and supportive care to the LGBTQ+ community, including initiating and continuing gender-affirming hormone therapy, PrEP and HIV management.
