How do I see a nurse practitioner?


when i went to my ob last month, I asked her about a problem i was having and she said just to take it up with the nurse practitioner. How do I do that? Do I make an appointment? What do I say when I call the doctors office? Thanks.

Yes, when you call , ask for an appt with the NP.

Call the Dr's office and state that you need to set up an appointment with the Nurse Practioner.
