Heidi Eck, ARNP

Originally from a small town in Kansas, I got involved with the local American Red Cross Meals on Wheels. This led to a science in nursing degree and a “career” as a Registered Nurse working in Intensive Care and trauma.

Realizing my passion for Geriatric Medicine, I furthered my training receiving an Advanced Nurse Practitioner degree in 2012.

In 2013, yearning for a warmer climate, with my husband and our kids, we moved to sunny Florida. We now completely enjoy the beautiful sunshine of the Florida great outdoors.

I have found a home here at Countryside Medical, where I can continue my passion for medicine.
