Dedicated PMHNP: Transforming Mental Health Care Through Compassionate and Evidence-Based Practice (ONLY PRESCRIBE CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES IN FL)
Welcome! I'm Dorrett McDonald-Lovell, a dedicated Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) based in the warm and welcoming community of Kissimmee, FL. With over two decades of rich experience in healthcare, my journey has been driven by a passion for enhancing the wellbeing of my patients and their families.
My expertise lies in understanding and addressing your mental health needs with empathy and professionalism. I've spent significant time honing my skills, practicing as a PMHNP across all ages. My approach is patient-centered, ensuring that you receive personalized care tailored to your unique situation.
I believe in the power of communication and collaboration. Whether it's working with other healthcare professionals or educating patients and their loved ones about mental health, I'm committed to making sure you feel heard, understood, and supported every step of the way.
My educational background includes a Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University and a Bachelor's from Long Island University School of Nursing. I'm proud to be recognized by esteemed societies such as The National Society of Leadership and Success, Golden Key International Honor Society, and Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing for my commitment to excellence.
As a lifelong learner, I continuously update my knowledge to provide you with the best care possible. I maintain active memberships with professional associations like the American Nursing Association to stay at the forefront of nursing practice.
Outside the clinic, I'm an active participant in community service initiatives like Second Harvest Food Bank because giving back is at the heart of what I do.
If you're looking for compassionate, comprehensive psychiatric care that puts you first, let's connect. Your mental health journey is important to me, and together we can work towards achieving balance and peace in your life.
