About
Patricia Adams has been a Nurse Practitioner since 1993. She worked at Mount Vernon Primary Care and managed the practice at Woodbine Rehab and Healthcare Center under the leadership of the Medical Director, Michael Lieberman. She began to see that many of her patients who had grown older had great difficulty getting in to see her--- family members had to take off work, some even paid large amounts of money for transportation to the office. In 2011, she began seeing patients in their homes. In 2013, the Woodbine practice expanded to include a House Call practice. Since January 2017, she has had a Collaborative Practice with Dr. Stephen W. Rex, a longtime colleague. She sees patients in their homes and in several Assisted Living Facilities. She enjoys working with many home health agencies, hospices and community Social Workers and Care Managers.
Patty graduated from University of Pittsburgh School of Nursing with her Bachelor's degree and worked for 10 years in a hospital setting. During those years, she learned a great deal about chronic illness and became committed to the prevention of disease and its complications, as well as the importance of quality of life.
She attended the collaborative program between George Mason University and George Washington University and obtained her Master's Degree in Nursing at George Mason University in 1993.
