With a passion for delivering quality care, Samantha is a family nurse practitioner who specializes in geriatric nursing, psychiatric nursing, long-term care, short term rehab and home care. She works at OPTUM in the Bronx, New York.
OPTUM is a full service company that provides state-of-the-art care and leading edge technology in a modern environment.

Close patient supervision by a specially trained multidisciplinary team of health professionals helps ensure that patients receive the best, most effective care possible.
Her grandfather’s passing and the care he received inspired Samantha to become a nurse and has aided in her success. Following the completion of her Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree from the New York University Rory Meyers College of Nursing, she went on to earn her Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) degree from the same educational venue.
To advance her professional efforts, she remains a member of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners, an American organization formed in 2013 by a merger between the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners and the American College of Nurse Practitioners to provide nurse practitioners with a unified way to network and advocate their issues.
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.
