Lorraine Merrill, PNP

I approach each encounter as an opportunity to develop my relationship with the patient and family as part of their care team. I embrace my role as their provider to foster confidence, increase opportunities for the growth of my patients, and learn from their experience to ensure a plan for optimized health. I enjoy tailoring treatment to individual patients and families as I learn what works best for them while applying evidence-based treatment options for their respiratory health.

I have a great interest in school-based health programs and participate in committees for the Arizona Inhaler Program for Schools. I also have an interest in healthcare in rural areas and the expansion of school-based programs for disease prevention, education, and treatment. Personal interests include outdoor activities like hiking and camping with family, gardening, and visiting with friends and family.
