ILEANA SCOTT
San Diego,USA
Summary
Doctorally prepared pediatric nurse practitioner specializing in obesity medicine. I am passionately motivated to empower families to embrace healthy living. I also manage the myriad of obesity-driven comorbidities. My experiences continue to humble me as each family unit possesses a unique set of challenges. I lead my practice by valuing the patient and families as a whole, indiscriminately, with the potential to change.
I am keenly aware of the multicultural belief system, and I avidly strive to positively influence families to adapt lifestyle changes. Seeing these changes is one of the more rewarding aspects of my practice, by empowering families to become their best, knowing that I played a role in their journey.
I am dependable, with attention to detail; conscientious, and hardworking at multitasking in fast-paced environments.
