Wiek, Casandera, FNP-C

As a Family Nurse Practitioner, my philosophy in life is simple: treat others as you would like to be treated. I believe that quality healthcare is built on education, prevention, and individualized care tailored to each patient’s unique needs. Prior to becoming a nurse practitioner, I spent 10 years as a nurse, which deepened my passion for helping others and allowed me to connect with patients on a personal level. Now, as part of the team at Entira, my goal is to build long-lasting relationships with patients and accompany them on their healthcare journey throughout their lives.

My Approach to Care

Every patient is an individual and deserves personalized care. I strive to truly listen and understand each person’s needs, so we can work together to create a health plan that suits them best. I view healthcare as a partnership, where we collaborate to improve both physical and mental well-being.

Outside the Office

When I’m not in the office, I love spending time with my family and riding horses. I find joy in the simplicity of nature, and it’s an important part of my self-care routine.

Fun Facts

• If I weren’t a provider: I’d be rescuing and taking care of animals, offering them the same love and care I give my patients.
• Comfort Food: Caramels and fruit pizza.

Health Tips

• Sleep: Getting sufficient sleep is crucial for the mind, body, and soul.
• Prevention: I believe that staying proactive is key—whether it’s maintaining good hygiene, practicing healthy habits, or taking time for self-care, small steps go a long way.
• Basic Care: Wash your hands! It’s one of the easiest and most effective ways to stay healthy and prevent illness.

What I Love About Family Medicine

Family medicine allows me to care for individuals across all ages and life stages. It’s rewarding to see families grow, face challenges together, and know that I’m a part of their journey toward health and happiness.
