Announcing our newest APRN to the WFMS team
- Lydia Schwertfeger is a board certified Family Nurse Practitioner through the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners. She completed her bachelors and doctorate in nursing at Wichita State University. Before becoming an APRN in 2023, she worked as an RN at a rural Zambian hospital for five months and then as a Cardiac ICU RN at Kansas Heart Hospital for eight years. Wichita Family Medicine was her favorite clinical rotation as a student, so she is thrilled and extremely grateful to join such a great team of providers. Coming from the ICU setting, she strives to prevent hospitalization with thorough and holistic primary care. Outside of work, she volunteers both locally and abroad, including international disaster relief and local service to international patients. Although she loves traveling and studying culture, she is a Wichita native and enthusiast. She enjoys spending quality time with friends and family in the area, especially if it involves being outdoors or live music.
