A nurse practitioner has joined the team at Norman Regional’s Primary Care – Moore clinic. Debbie Strickland, APRN-CNP, specializes in family medicine and is accepting new patients.
She completed her Master of Science in Nursing at the University of Alabama. She is a member of The Institute for Functional Medicine and the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners.
Strickland’s interests include the management of:
* COPD * Diabetes * Hormone deficiency supplementation * Hypertension * Lyme disease * Vitamin & mineral deficiency supplementation * Wellness & disease prevention
Strickland said, “My patients can expect me to look at the whole picture to uncover the roots of the patient’s ailment.” This allows her to create and implement a comprehensive shared plan of care. Her overall goal is to help her patients achieve their optimal level of functioning and health by integrating healthy lifestyle modification, replacement of hormones and vitamin/mineral deficiencies, and medication if needed. She encourages her patients to be engaged and involved with their plan of care.
A life-long learner, Debbie enjoys learning about complementary options for health. She also enjoys riding bikes, hiking, working outdoors, reading and spending time with family and friends. Debbie’s great, great, great, great grandfather was Jesse Chisholm, a fur trader and merchant known for scouting and developing the Chisholm Trail.
