Specializing in pediatrics, Chika is a certified family nurse practitioner who works at AdvantageCare Physicians (ACNY) in Brooklyn, New York City, New York. 

ACNY focuses on improving the health of patients and the communities they serve by providing New Yorkers with high-quality, team-based, coordinated care. “At ACPNY, we care for the whole you. Your health comes in many different forms — physical, mental, social – and we’re here to help you with all of them. Our team-based approach includes providers, nurses, nutritionists, behavioral health specialists, and other health care professionals” as stated on their website. 

Ever since high school, Chika knew that she wanted to become a nurse practitioner. With a strong desire to accomplish her dream, she earned her Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) degree from the University of Texas at Austin in 2012. 

Attributing her success to her faith in God and her willingness to help others, she strives to stay up to date in her field through a professional membership with the American Association of Nurse Practitioners and the Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing.

A family nurse practitioner (FNP) is an advanced practice registered nurse who works autonomously or in collaboration with other healthcare professionals, to deliver family-focused care. Given the rather broad nature of the “family” patient population focus, FNPs offer a wide range of healthcare services that revolve around the family unit; from health promotion and disease prevention to direct care and counseling across the lifespan.
