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.

Dr. Heather was absolutely amazing. It's the first time in a long time I genuinely felt listened to, what was important to me was made a priority for her. It's very clear she's in the field she's supposed to be in. Thank you for taking such great care of e during our first visit.

I am very pleased with my health care provider and have been seeing her for years. My only wish is that when I schedule an appointment sometimes they are way booked out. I realize that can't be helped. It doesn't surprise me that she is popular and has a lot of repeat business. My daughter goes to her too and feels the same way. I especially appreciate her communication style and that is good at follow up.

I like her slot. I told what was important to me & she seemed genuinely concerned & reassured me she would take very good care of me. I appreciated that very much.
