NORTH ADAMS, Mass. - Heather Lomax, a certified nurse practitioner, has joined Williamstown Medical Associates.
Ms. Lomax earned her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in nursing from Regis College in Weston, and is certified by the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners. She also holds a bachelor’s degree in business administration from California Polytechnic Institute. She most recently worked at Angels Neurological Centers in Abington and Taunton, and at Kindred Hospital Northeast-Braintree.
At Williamstown Medical Associates, Ms. Lomax will practice as a member of the internal medicine department, assisting Robert Jandl, M.D.
“We are delighted to have Heather join our team and are confident she will be a fine addition to our growing mid-level provider staff,” said Dr. Jandl.
A nurse practitioner is a registered nurse who has completed advanced education (a minimum of a master’s degree) and training in the diagnosis and management of common medical conditions including chronic illnesses. Nurse practitioners provide a broad range of health care services. They provide some of the same care provided by physicians and maintain close working relationships with physicians. An NP can serve as a patient’s regular health care provider, and see patients of all ages.
WMA has been providing comprehensive healthcare to the community since 1958.
WMA recently opened its new health center on Adams Road in Williamstown and also has offices in the Ambulatory Care Center at North Adams Regional Hospital. For information about the physicians and services of WMA, call (413) 458-8182.
