Michele Cathey, FNP-C
Board Certified, Family Medicine, 23 years of experience
My primary care philosophy is to approach patients with respectful curiosity, engage in active listening and develop the trust needed to create a meaningful partnership. Through this partnership I can provide the guidance and expertise needed to support optimal health and wellness. I believe that to be my best professionally I have to practice what I teach, work hard, play hard and laugh a lot. I spend most of my time outdoors on a bike, or with my hands in the dirt. I am passionate about creating community, being a good steward of the earth and spending time with my wife, our two boys and two dogs

It is so convenient to be able to get medical care from home via the telehealth system. I really appreciate the availability of providers and seamless integration of care within the app. My first appointments with my provider were also really pleasant, she was thoughtful and listened and it didn't have the same rushed and sterile feel that so often you get in a standard medical office environment. So far I am very happy and have already recommended it to friends.
