Scott Berning, 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).
As a nurse practitioner, I believe in collaborating with patients to achieve their health goals, emphasizing a preventive, holistic view that considers their physical and mental well-being. My approach values building patient relationships, providing culturally sensitive care, facilitating lifestyle modifications, and engaging in shared decision making that empowers patients.
How I stay healthy and happy
To stay physically and mentally healthy, I hike, practice mindfulness, and eat balanced, varied meals. I also enjoy traveling, going to museums and concerts, and rooting for the Warriors.
