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.

Attributing her success to the practice of attentive patient listening, Shabana’s approach involves genuinely understanding the patient’s perspective by actively listening and allowing them the space to express themselves.

On a more personal note, she speaks multiple languages, including English, Arabic, Hindi, and Urdu.
