About Susan R. Carlton
I am a North Carolina native and have lived in Washington since 2017. I graduated from Western Carolina University and worked as an RN for 9 years prior to becoming an NP. Coming from a primarily acute care background, I have come to love preventative healthcare and empowering people to truly take control of their own health and wellness.

My hobbies include playing the piano, crocheting, and ceramic painting. My favorite place is anywhere warm and sunny (which is admittedly hard to find in the PNW!)

I think Susan Carlton does a very good job listening to me, responding thoughtfully, and helping me make decisions about my care. I feel grateful that she is my primary care provider. I wish I were able to schedule longer appointments, though. I would like more time to talk through diagnostic and treatment options, particularly in cases such as my last appointment, which was to discuss a chronic disease where I have a long history of treatments that did not work.

Providence Patient
Susan is an excellent health care person. I feel comfortable with her and she seems to care about my health. I've had concerns about the cholesterol medication and she has listened to me and we worked together to figure out what's best for me. I met an RN on my last visit and she was also helpful and caring. It's not easy these days to find a health care provider that shows they really care. I am very happy with the Rochester clinic.
