Clarissa Calderon-Meza, NP
San Francisco
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 enjoy getting to know my patients very well, not only discussing their health issues but learning more about their personal lives, health goals and hobbies. By creating a fun environment and developing a deep connection with the patient, it is easier to identify challenges preventing anyone from reaching their wellness goals.
How I stay healthy and happy
I consider myself a very outdoors type of person. I enjoy hiking, going to the beach and running. My toddler son and I aim to live a healthy active lifestyle. We also enjoy traveling to explore new cultures and try new foods around the world.
