Meet Victoria Balogun
Dedicated/patient-centered Psych/mental health nurse practitioner with experience in Anxiety, depression, ADHD and insomnia
Hello, I'm Victoria Balogun, a dedicated and experienced nurse practitioner based in Lompoc, CA. With over two decades in the healthcare field, I have gained extensive expertise in both clinical care and patient management. My experience spans across hospitals, ambulatory clinics, telehealth, and correctional facilities.
I hold advanced degrees in nursing from Washburn University and South University, and I am board-certified by the American Association of Nurse Practitioners and the American Nurses Credentialing Center. Over the years, I have sharpened my skills in physical examinations, diagnoses, medication management, and minor surgeries. I am also experienced in providing psychiatric evaluations, diagnosis, and medication management.
My passion is to offer compassionate, patient-centered care that helps individuals achieve better health outcomes. Whether I am working with Veterans and servicemen, or those in correctional facilities, my goal remains the same: to provide high-quality, empathetic medical care.
I look forward to collaborating with other healthcare professionals and bringing my expertise to help patients lead healthier lives.
