About Carissa Glavine, RN, CPNP

Carissa is a personable certified pediatric nurse practitioner (PNP) and mom. She received her nursing degree summa cum laude from the University of Massachusetts, and completed her master’s degree in nursing, also summa cum laude and PNP training at Yale University.

Carissa has been a staff nurse practitioner at the Community Medical Alliance in Boston for two years, and has worked as a nurse in New Haven, Waltham and San Diego.

Pediatric nurse practitioners (PNPs) are registered nurses with extra clinical training leading to an advanced practice nursing certification. PNPs diagnose and treat the full breadth of pediatric conditions, and are able to perform complete physical examinations as well. We are excited that we will be able to enhance our level of service to you, especially as our practice has become busier.

Carissa is a warm, friendly and competent clinician. We feel certain that you will find her pleasant nature and pediatric experience an asset to our practice.
