Sheryl Horwitz, WHNP

As a Nurse Practitioner, I have been providing quality and personalized women's health care for over 30 years.

I believe in approaching each patient with compassion, kindness, and a sense of humor.

I have a specific interest in herpes diagnosis and treatment and have served as a sub investigator on more than 80 clinical trials. Participation in clinical trials has given me the opportunity to conduct research in many areas, including vaccine and treatment options for sexually transmitted infections.

In my spare time, I enjoy hiking, singing, and traveling.
