About Heather M. Pfeiffer
After 10 years in trauma and emergency care as a flight nurse, Heather Pfeiffer, FNP, decided she wanted to focus on keeping patients healthy and safe. Becoming a family practice nurse practitioner was her natural next step. In her practice, she emphasizes patient education to empower patients to be good decision-makers in their own care choices; whole, self-care for wellness; open communication; and partnering with patients in health.
She considers her most important roles as a provider to be guiding good health choices, teaching healthy living and supporting health choices that best fit the person. "I enjoy the gift of helping others," she says. "My philosophy of care is to recognize patients as individuals who are a part of a larger context of family, work, friends, sport, stressors and environment. I work with patients and families on health, wellness and navigating illness care."
Heather has been caring for patients and families since 1994. She is committed to shared decision-making with patients and families, evidence-based wellness focused practice, and an emphasis on self-care and personal wellness.
Born in Connecticut, Heather is married to a photographer/designer and has two sons. She enjoys running, skiing, soccer and gardening.

Heather is the best, so kind and knowledgeable. She's taken good care of my husband and I for the past 15 years or so.
